By Chloe Noel, Tech Trainer - Ada Public Library
Around this holly jolly holiday season, many of you will probably recieve a new laptop, tablet, or cell phone from Santa (if you've been nice this year).

When setting up your new device, it will likely require the creation of a new account or email address - so be sure to write all the information down.

Keep a notebook or journal of all emails, user names, passwords and pin codes
created on the new device, or you may find yourself locked out and out of luck!

20 houses built in Ada on Friday evening

All within a matter of hours

Story and photos by Monty Siekerman
About 20 houses were built in Ada on Friday evening, all within a matter of hours.

That's enough to fill a subdivision. The houses, all one-story, were made by kids...gingerbread houses.

If you are looking to entertain kids with something creative, and gooey, then building gingerbread houses fits the bill.

The project was sponsored by the Ada Public Library, but held at the United Methodist Church across the street because the library itself is undergoing an addition and renovation, but not of gingerbread.
