Gingerbread Houses and Trees!! - Dec 7, 2009

Well Mostly Trees!
We decided to make gingerbread houses for FHE with the Clarks. When I mentioned it to my friend Sarah she said buy the sugar cones for the boys to decorate. So they don't get frustrated!! Best suggestion ever. The boys loved decorating their trees and were able to get to bed on time. Then the rest of us adults tried to make a house out of graham crackers. Now I have never done this before but my mom and sister have been successful in the past but this year I think we jumped the gun and were short on patience.

Conner was very focused

Colby contribution was eating M&M's.

Brother Clark and Grandpa, start it off well enough!

When I came back from putting the boys to sleep this is what I found!
They claimed they didn't wait long enough for the frosting to dry before adding candy!

But after all came tumbling down, I did learn how to play a new game called Nertz.
So much fun!!!!
