Gingerbread houses

We did not do a good job with keeping up with our family traditions this Christmas season, but we were able to get our gingerbread houses made.  As the kids get older, the houses get more elaborate (which also takes a lot longer).  But they got a lot of fun details in their houses. 
 











Chelsea made snow out of powdered sugar, some fun fondant trees and white chocolate cobblestones.


Mason made a landing strip and airplane in his backyard.  In the front he made some fun fondant presents to put by his trees.
 
 
 

Brianna had some snowmen, ice skating rink, and ice fort in her yard.  She also glued sliced almonds and cotton candy on her room for shingles and snow. 


Cord had a little bit of everything on his house.  When he saw the other kids doing things, he wanted it too.  Cord wrote his name on the roof with candy.  He used popcorn for his snow covered yard and he made sure to make a chimney.
