Our Gingerbread House

Aly has been so excited to decorate our gingerbread house. We bought it at costco back in October and she has been asking ever since. It was quite a bit of preparation work as I had to assemble all of the walls and the roof and do all of the outlining on the windows, doors, and roofs.













Aly took the picture of me on the left. Not bad for a four year old. I bet she will really enjoy her new camera this Christmas!





















Aly really enjoyed decorating the house! In fact she was pretty much the only one that decorated it! KK was so busy eating all of the candy she didn't really put any candy on the house!











Our house only stayed decorated for a few hours. I put the house on our table as a centerpiece and within a few hours the girls already started picking off the candy and eating it. Last year they never did that to our gingerbread house so I was a little surprised. Oh well, it is the experience that makes it fun and memorable!
