Gingerbread Houses!!

Last year we started the tradition of making Gingerbread Houses. The kids love it and it is a fun thing to do as a family. Chris is the master house builder. We have found that it works best to hot glue the graham crackers together and stick the candy on with melted white chocolate. Yum!!! Here are a few pictures of the masterpieces complete with trees, sidewalks, and even picnic tables for Santa.

















I have to hand it to Quincy. Because of her constant bladder infections, she has been off all simple sugars since July. She rarely ever complains. She built her house with everyone else and then the next day began slowly taking it apart and sharing it with everyone. She is a trooper. Much stronger than the rest of us. I know all that will power will get her great things one day!!
