Gingerbread Houses...FUN!








When my sister, Leslie, told me she and her friends were going to make gingerbread houses with 3 toddlers and a 5yr old...I knew I had to crash this party! I was wondering if they had a clue what they were in for? Well, a few minutes into the adventure they were realizing how different it is with a class of kindergartners (Jill & Heidi are teachers). Can we just say 5 year olds are way more skilled than the toddlers at this party ranging in age from 17 - 26 months. Ethan, Jill's son, was great at his gingerbread design...I love watching the imagination come to life at that age! Trace & Jack found that eating candy was much more fun than creating a small house out of crackers. And little Miss Abby was true to the girl in her, she thought the icing (aka: glue) was lotion and proceeded to rub in all over her hands and face! Needless to say I had the best time ladies...hope I can crash again next year...if you guys don't chicken out! Merry Christmas!
