Gingerbread House

We had a blast decorating our gingerbread house this year.
I learned from last year and got a few more "decorations" for the house, because it seems like the candy the gingerbread house kit includes just really isn't the best for decorating.

The kids did great taking turns putting on the candies and, just like last year, ate way too many of them in the process.  We made sure to brush their teeth extra well that night! :)






Sweet Maggie


Daddy was the frosting-expert and helped guide the candy placement.  We thought it looked great!

They were so proud of their house










The frosting-expert caved on the requests for a squeeze of frosting in the mouth
