gingerbread

this was too fun.
not the fighting and arguing part…but the project itself.
so much fun.

i commissioned a friend who is known for her gingerbread making skills
to make the house pieces for me.
i wasn’t feeling brave enough to take that on this year.
she brought us the house in pieces…mmm…smelled so good.
while the kids were at school i built the house and tiled the roof with rice chex.
i could have easily sat and done the entire house
all by myself.
i was having a blast.

it’s a good craft for all ages.
but i think next time i will have more than one house
and everyone will have their own frosting.
sharing is a hard concept.
(at least for my kids)

literally.

Adla - That is so cute…all the kids involved, what a wonderful outcome. I’m sure they’ll treasure these memories when they are all grown 🙂

Danelle - I love this!

Jen CD - What friend made the pieces? I am definitely interested!!!!!!!!!!

kristin - this is a family tradition of mine…my mom is amazing and does it all before we get there…then we each take a side and have at it…
