GingerBread Houses

Last night my parents, my sister, the kids and my sister's friend came over for homemade potato cheese soup, salad and bread and to make GingerBread Houses. It was lots of fun!
I am way too cheap to buy the expensive kits...they are like $10 each! So I made them out of graham crackers!

The kids had tons of treats to put on their house...some of the candy didn't make it on to the houses!

Aida and Izzy were best friends...playing so well together and helping each other decorate!



Chloe, Luc and Izzy in deep concentration...



Kel, my mom looking crazy and me

We ended the night playing the Wii and making fun of Kelly



Here's I am BEATING my dad at tennis...its always nice to beat him at something he NEVER let us win at games even when we were little!! I love Christmas time and getting together with family and friends!!

Devon you are so striking. In all your pictures you have such a beautiful smile and you hair is fantastic. Looks like a fun evening! I have never done gingerbread houses, but has started to consider it after watching a special on the food network.

Looks like you did a great job.

Fun! Your gingerbread houses turned out so cute, what a fun idea. Since there were only three grandchildren that were old enough in our family up until last yr, my mom always got the kits and did houses with them, but I think the little ones are just as cute!! By the way... nice job on the tennis, You've still got it! You always could smoke any of us at that game! You've got mad skillz
