Gingerbread House

Last weekend, when we were at Wal Mart waiting for Julie's plane to land, Luke BEGGED for a gingerbread house kit to make. We usually do this on a family night, but since Julie had caught the red eye and needed some sleep and the kids had been so good during our really long trip to Charleston, we decided to put it together that afternoon. We have done one of these every year since Luke was two and I love doing it every year! They get so excited and they do a really good job! This year the kids looked through the instructions and found a picture that they wanted to replicate. So Nate took control of the frosting and the kids the candy.
Of course Gabby and Lily had a hard time putting the candy ON the house instead of IN their mouths!!
She just chilled on the chair most of the time eating snacks. Trust me, it was better this way!!

The finished house, I think they did a pretty good job!


What a good looking family I have!
