I decided to take advantage of my mom being in town for Audrey's birthday and the next day I had her help us with gingerbread houses. I don't know why I'm such a baby when it comes to putting these together. One day I'll get brave enough to try it again on my own. The one time I did, it didn't go too well. Melting sugar is definitely an art! :)
Everyone enjoyed decorating a gingerbread house. I was quite surprised at how much Ian got into it. He was definitely eating his fair share of candy, but he was also wanting to decorate. Such a happy boy!
It's really nice that the girls are independent enough to do most of it on their own.
Finished products:
We definitely had fun last night and are grateful we had Grandma's help. We are hoping the houses at least last a week, you never know in this humid climate we live in... But really as soon as they collapse, that's grounds for eating all the candy. So, it's not like anyone is really that disappointed.

This is a very cute picture I display life size in my bedroom in one of my large digital picture displays. Luv it because when I walk up to look at her she appears to be directly in front of me!

I love to stop by and spend a few minutes kissing her. The display is warm and silky smooth so she seems to come to life and it is like I am really kissing her. She cracks me up and puts a smile on my face Whenever I spend a few minutes enjoying the kisses.
