Annual Gingerbread House Decorating

Decorating a gingerbread house had become a tradition for us, especially Carlo. He loves this part of getting ready for the holidays. Well evidently Oliver like the gingerbread houses too, but to eat them. He managed to eat the tree and the roof off the house once it was finished and drying. Needless to say Carlo was devastated and we weren't able to decorate the one we made. So we got a new one to make. This one is a gingerbread train... even better. And we'll keep it away from Oliver this time!

Carlo putting the icing on the pieces to make them stick together.

Sophia appalled at Carlo eating the icing!

Putting the finishing touches on the house so it can dry.




All done and ready to decorate!

(Poor Sophia had falled the day before and got a fat lip...ouch!)
