Gingerbread Houses

We made our gingerbread houses last week.  I think the kids want to continue this tradition just so they can eat the gingerbread houses!

They glued the house together with royal icing...

 Eating as much frosting as went on the house.

 And eating the candy also...

 One candy for the house...one for the mouth...

The finished product ... but it didn't last long.  Ethan's broke apart when he tried to move it and so he just ate it.

Courtney made a North Pole house with lots of candy shingles.

It was a fun night!
