Gingerbread house

So now that the boys are getting older, we are starting some new things for Christmas. Noah was determined that he would make a Gingerbread house this year. So I thought it would be fun. I admit that I took the easy way out and got a kit. The kit had everything and was a big hit. Noah couldn't wait to get started with the decorating as you can see. He loved every part of it as you can see.

Nate of course was very interested in decorating the Gingerbread house. He was particularly interested when the bags of candy were cut open. I predicted that Nate would ask right away to start eating the candy and that he would be more interested in eating than decorating.

Don't I know my children. Nathan was caught in the act of eating the candy. He would put on a piece and then eat 2 or 3 pieces. He was even trying to hide it.

This is our final product. I think it came out great for a first try.
