Forget decorating...I just want to EAT it!

Our family activity for the evening was building {actually there was no building involved much to Clayton's dismay: "We baked our gingerbread houses and put them together ourselves...this is LAME*" } a gingerbread house.




Unfortunately somewhere between Wal-Mart and our house or perhaps even before it LEFT the Wal-Mart the frosting bag with tip was misplaced. Therefore I improvised a new frosting bag without tip and this is the result. A little scary. However...


Evelyn was more interested in EATING the candy than decorating the house. Clayton resorted to the aim and toss method of candy application. I tried getting creative.... It all fell OFF.

Voila!

A home fit for the finest of Gingerbread men.



What was Stella doing? We didn't forget about her, she was just sleeping....Shhhhhhhh
* {Clayton really didn't say "lame" but since I write this stuff I thought I could take creative license.}

Looks like you had fun. Thanks for posting more pictures of Stella. I will be so jealous if her eyes end up staying blue. That would not be fair if you got 2 blue-eyed kids and I got none!

I second the blue eyed thing Cami. But great job improvising on the gingerbread house. It's better than the one I made....or I guess, didn't make.
