Gingerbread Houses!

A quick fact about me: I've never decorated a gingerbread house. Not that I remember, anyway.

Thankfully, Target assembled some very nice gingerbread houses, and Katie & I set out to decorate them. Selfishly, I gave her candy and frosting for her Christmas present, so we were all set.


Here's how they started.




And here's how they ended.


The fronts.


The sides.


And the backs.


And a picture of us with our houses. This picture took 85 tries, including an accidental picture of my finger and one of my feet. Plus 83 others of half of us.



Katie & her house.


Me and my house.

Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of the HUGE MESS we made on the table. It was a fun, and successful afternoon. Even if it did take 3 hours. 

I also baked the pieces to try to put together my own house, I just haven't gotten around to putting them together yet. And, I accidentally ate the base. Guess it'll have to go on a plate instead!
