We got a great package in the mail with a wonderful recipe. (thanks mom) How to make our own gingerbread house. The kids and I worked together to make the gingerbread, cut the shapes and let them cool. Last night we let the fun begin!
After gluing the pieces together the creativity started. I had a bunch of different candy for David and Allison to choose from. They told me what they wanted and I put the "frosting glue", as they called it, where they wanted.
They were so excited to decorate or maybe eat the candy as we went. We made a garden, flowers, a sleigh with santa and a few snowmen. David even added a light pole out front. The chimney is even complete with a fireball to heat up the place.
They have already decided what they want to different next year.

Okay That is the best ginger bread house! We tried to make one last year but I don't think my recipe was that great.
That looks professional
