Gingerbread House Making


Continuing with the Christmas festivities - we made Gingerbread houses with our friends Jessica & Campbell again this year!

Clearly, neither me or Jessica are engineers as you might notice quite a large architectural flaw in our houses.  Ah well.  To me, it looks more like a stable.  So it's more authentic, right?  RIGHT?!

The girls had great fun decorating with and eating all the tasty candy.  They even got to add a little snow at the end.  And by a little, I mean a LOT.  An avalanche landed on our roof, effectively covering the lovely "E" & "K" we had added to the top.  Snow is way fun though - in whatever form we can get it!

And the finishing touch?  Icing trees they decorated at their preschool Christmas party.  More on that later.  :)
