Gingerbread Party 2012

Bring on the frosting and candy....it's Gingerbread House Decorating Party 2012!  We were thrilled to have our nephews Peter, Finn, Austin, and Noah join us....as well as our niece Caroline.  We had a blast...and made a yummy mess!  I always love watching the different types of creativity that each child has...as well as their different work ethics!  Ha!  Some are very focused....some have about a 3 minute attention span.  It is wonderful!  And I loved having my sisters, Jennifer and Jessica, stay for the fun this year.  Mom even dropped by at the end to witness all of the beautiful creations!

Well, the pictures truly speak for themselves.....so enjoy!

Peter and Logan always like to come up with their own theme....something unconventional and out of the box.  This year was an army fort....very cool!

Beth was the most focused of the group this year- working a good hour after everyone else had finished!  She had a plan....and she was sticking to it!

Sweet Claire

Jen and Austin

This was Tag's first year to decorate his OWN house....he had blast!  A little icing on the house....a little in his mouth.  Some candy on the house....some candy in his mouth.  You get the picture....

Jes and Claire- it's looking great girl!
