The making of the gingerbread house

The kids got to make their gingerbread house early this year. (An activity to keep our minds off daddy being gone.) I went the easy way this year and bought one pre assembled!

Here they are prior to starting.....

The one that they were trying to imitate!

Fierce concentration!

Some interesting swirls and circles on the roof!!

Love his little lips in this picture.
