Jesse's craftiness!

This year, my side of the family has decided to to a "giftless Christmas," meaning that no one is to buy presents for anyone else, everything has to be handmade out of items that we already have. The day before Thanksgiving, the girls had a craft-day where we created cute little Christmas presents for each other. Jesse and Dad went shooting. But when they got back, Jesse started working on a present for Spencer that started out as just an old 2x4. He cut it and crafted it into a great wooden train! Spencer is at a stage right now where he just loves anything and everything about trains. Since we wont be down to Nephi for Christmas this year, we decided that Spencer could have his present early. He loves it!

Working on the 2x4


The finished product!! Personally, I think it turned out amazing. Jesse is so talented!


Spencer loves driving his new train around!

The only craft I've seen Jesse do involves gasoline, bullets, fire, firecrackers, water and shaving cream...
