Gingerbread Decorating

Tonight the Petersons came over to decorate gingerbread with us. It wasn't so much gingerbread as graham crackers, and the kids got their choice of either a house or train. Assembly took much longer than expected, so I'll be sure to have that all done next year before we start. Everyone had a fun time (except for Zach, but that goes without saying) and now we have to find somewhere to keep these beautiful creations until Christmas!

Cathy was quite the pro with a piping bag

Not wanting to be outdone by his wife,
Venn gave it a go as well.

Dad helped out Olivia

Like I said everyone enjoyed it but Zach! I was quite suprised by his reaction. I thought that he would at least enjoy all the candy. I think it may have had something to do with just barely waking up from a nap and having a bunch of people running around in his house. Not that I'm making excuses for his bad behavior so I feel like a better mother!

How fun! That looks (relatively) easy so maybe I'll have to try that next year for my kids. You always do such fun things with your kids.
