Every year we make gingerbread houses and this year was no exception. We just did it much much later in the year than we usually do. I have had so many irons in the fire that this little tradition just seemed to get pushed back time after time. However…. we did it and the kids loved it.

Toad was especially interested in his house and did his almost completely on his own. That was so much fun to watch. He is a little control freak and it is eeking out all over the place! I love it… sometimes.

Oh, and pay no attention to the mess in the background. My kitchen was turned into my sewing triage center for several weeks for me to finish up my projects and enjoy my kiddos at the same time.
