Gingerbread Making Party!


Abby and her friends

The masterpiece

Finally finished!

Reese looks like he's up to something doesn't he? I think Abby's onto him!:)

Abby's little friend Trinity invited her over to decorate gingerbread houses and Reese was invited to tag along too---he was thrilled!
Trinity's mom, Keri is one of my dear friends and she went way over board-as usual:) She got every candy and icing color imaginable! Abby was in heaven---Reese was too but he mostly ate the candy and licked the icing while Abby tried to cover every inch of the house with sugar!
Reese would put a piece on the house then take it off again and eat it. Abby would then get mad at him for eating all the candy--it was hilarious! The house turned out beautiful and Abby worked her heart out on it. While every other kid was done and already watching a movie she was still sitting at the table working away!
Most importantly the kids wanted to know if this house was for decoration or could they eat it? I told them that we would make one they could eat on Christmas day--not only would it give us something to do after all the festivities but also they would probably be on a sugar high already anyway so what would it hurt-- right???:) (One of these days they are gonna figure me out....but until then let's go with it!)
