Gingerbread House

A few weeks back we constructed a gingerbread house and here's the photos!

Oliver carefully opening and sorting the candies.

This kid is amazing with scissors, I put him to work clipping our coupons on the weekends.

A good variety of candy!

Now the gingerbread house.



Everything ready, just waiting for daddy to get home from work so we can all make it.

Building the house with frosting.

Sampling the candy.

More sampling of the candy.

Little Leo wanting to help.


Leo kneading the green frosting so it's ready for us to use.

There are boring parts of making a gingerbread house and patience is needed as daddy lines the doors and windows.

More kneading.

Leo showing off his two bottom teeth.


The gingerbread is finished and our living room smells like gingerbread now!




After waiting 2 weeks to finally get the chance to eat the gingerbread house mommy gives them the go-ahead.  Disappointment is evident, it's an old cookie!

  1. Looks like you have 2 budding architects in the house with Ollie's decorating and Leo's kneading! What a fun family activity!
