The Gingerbread House

We started a new Christmas tradition for our house...building a Gingerbread House. Daddy and Abigail woke up one morning and pulled out the box and started to assemble the little house! It took them about an hour and they had a GREAT time putting it together. It ended up crashing down at the very end, but that was okay since it was more about the journey than the destination really! ha!



She couldn't believe it was a "little" house!



I love this photo of her soft delicate hand on daddy's offering up her help!


She was very attentive to the whole process wanting to understand how it all worked!


Look it how carefully she applied the decorations!


Mommy got the birds eye view!


Looked pretty scrumptious from here, but I wouldn't dare eat it!


She was offering up some of the candy!



It created a mess like most things we do, but how could you get upset at those hands!



And well, here was the finished product! :)
