Gingerbread Houses

I promised the kids we would make gingerbread houses this year, but before I knew it Christmas was over and we still hadn't made them. I had to run into CVS the day after Christmas and they had 2 gingerbread kits marked down 75%. I got them both and let the kids decorate their own houses this year. They had so much fun!

We had just as much fun eating all the candy as we did decorating the houses. That's the way you are supposed to make gingerbread houses, right?




Hard at work...




Here are the finished products. Fun, candy and mess-- every kids dream come true!
