I've been trying new things lately and have been so busy that I have not posted. Loser! Anyway. I had my first attempt at a gingerbread house. It was a kit and it clearly stated on the outside of the kit that it was "easy, family-friendly fun". No problem! Right? Wrong! I had Alex put the thing together and then I commenced the decorating fun with the kids. Turns out, I'm no cake boss! Making the icing go on like the picture was almost impossible and the darn little Christmas Tree and Snowman kept tipping over! Oh well, once we put the candy decorations on, it was sure to look better. Not so fast! The candy doesn't stick as well as I thought it would. Turns out, icing is not actually glue! After some practice, we kind of figured it out - but I swear it looks like it was make by some "special" kids. :) I prefer to say it was made with love not with talent!
