Well, another great weekend we spent time as a family trying to build a Gingerbread House. Oh Boy!!! It all started Friday night when we tried to put together a kit house. The kids helped getting the gingerbread walls and roof all ready while I worked on the frosting that was supposed to work like cement. You probably already guesed, when we put the house together it did not stay together. It was like a house built with no foundation. As soon as we took our hands off the walls they fell like a brick. So I decided we could keep them together with toothpicks. Toothpicks don't work when the gingerbread walls are like cinderblocks. Everytime I got the toothpick in a little bit it broke off. So we decided we would look up a gingerbread recipe and bake our own walls and roof. It smelled good when it came out of the oven but, when we went to pick up the gingerbread panels they fell apart. The kids did enjoy eating it with milk. When all was said and done the gingerbread house never got built, but as a family we had a lot of fun.
