gingerbread houses, 12-15-09

so we "tried" to make gingerbread houses at our playgroup on tuesday.
we used milk cartons, graham crackers, extra sticky frosting & of course, LOTS of candy!
biggest tip for next year: "glue" the graham cracker on the milk cartons the night before.

the kids had a blast. the moms were covered in frosting. a good time had by all.


later on the z's came over to play...

from left to right, the amount of the time they made it without wanting to go in:
back row: 13 minutes, 4 hours, 6.5 minutes
