Gingerbread House

Mimi got all the needed supplies for gingerbread houses at Christmas, but we got so busy that they didn't get made. We're at Mimi and Boppa's house for the weekend so Ellie made one this afternoon. Another very fun winter indoor activity!


Audrey was not such a fan of the marshmallow chimney!




Ellie's finished house, complete with front door, chimney, and holly bushes.




Audrey decorated some gingerbread cookies with rice milk icing (surprisingly not so bad!). Eventually she figured out that she could just eat the icing with the spoon.

Are those wreath cookies I see? Wish we were there!

Yes, TT, those are now called gingerbread house bushes! Wish you were here to eat the extras on top of the fridge.

When we told Ellie that we were going to Mimi and Boppa's hosue, the first thing she asked was if Addie was going to be here :-(
