Here's our Gingerbread house lane! We had 7 kids (and a couple of adults) all in my kitchen constructing houses on Sunday. Needless to say as soon as I'm done posting this I need to go and mop..... It was sooo much fun and I highly recommend this activity to everyone! I bought the kits that had everything in it and even though the gingerbread tastes like cardboard it was a great deal for the money. It was fun to see how different all the kids were with their creations, and they were so proud too!

A.J figured out it was easier to lick his pieces of candy before applying for better application...um we won't be eating anything off of his house.

He sat for something like 3 hours straight without losing interest! Wow! That right there was well worth the nine dollars for the kit!

At one point Colby told us all we were being too noisy. He needed silence to create his master piece?

He also said he is NOT eating his house and is saving it for Christmas morning to have for breakfast! Whatever, I know I won't even have to fight with that one....I give it a week, tops!

Hunter and his cousin, Brady, were so serious about the whole thing. You'd think they would start to rebel this sort of activity... but actually isn't building houses manly anyways? They loved it!

Brady's 'smartie' rooftop was so heavy it kept sliding down and the kids all thought it was hilarious! He's so stinkin' smart though (hee hee, smart--get it) he propped up his gingerbread men on each side to keep the roof from sliding down....

Well thanks everyone for coming over and trashing my house :) Next year I'm getting my vote in early for someone else to host this party!
