Gingerbread house

For the past few years Shane, Grace and I have put together a Gingerbread house using a kit. Last night we continued the tradition. Grace was very creative this years - in the past all colors had to be together, in a row and lord help us if there were fewer red than green : ) But this year she just had fun with it. Shane is in charge of the icing or glue as we call it so it doesnt get eaten before we can use it. Alex was not a happy camper during the whole process - he did not think it was right to waste all that good candy and cookies on a house we would never eat. What can I say the boy can eat! So I've posed a few pics of the process and the finished product and I think it's just beautiful!! I just love the memories that come along for the holidays! Dont you??
