Gingerbread Houses 2011

Every year we make gingerbread house. Well one year we had a gingerbread train. And this year we did a village. Since the kids are getting older it is harder to let all three of them "help" without it turning into chaos so thankfully Walmart had a gingerbread Christmas village with 5 houses! I had originally thought that we would each do one but when you are trying to supervise it is hard to do your own especially when one is a two year old, who is trying to eat the candy and the house! So we ended up with three houses plus the one Bailey made at school. The kids loved having their own house. We teased Jesse because his looked like an outhouse. We explained it to him and Bailey but they still didn't fully understand "outhouse" but proudly will tell people that his is an outhouse! It was funny.
