I've always enjoyed making gingerbread houses at Christmas time! Because of this, I've purchased a gingerbread house kit for our family to make for the past few years. I usually leave the construction and design to Daddy and the boys while I snap pictures, but I have to admit, I miss making them...maybe next year I'll have to buy one for me and one for the kids. I've also wondered about making our own gingerbread and creating houses that way, but that hasn't happened yet.
The boys were super excited to decorate with all that frosting and candy! It was fun to put together, despite the sagging roof (Ty cracked the roof piece and we had a hard time putting it back together). While they were working on the house, I asked the boys if they thought Jesus would have made a gingerbread house at Christmas time. Both said "no" in a that's-a-silly-question kind of way. But then we talked about how Jesus didn't celebrate Christmas with his family. How blessed are we that we can celebrate the coming of our Saviour!?! Merry Christmas!!! |
