Our family puts together gingerbread houses over Thanksgiving every year. My mom, sisters, and I only got around to baking them and getting the basic structure together. So we've had this charming, but bare little house sitting on our table for a while now, and I decided decorating it would make a good FHE activity.
Brad is actually really good at this stuff- he's very creative and sometimes we're both working on things and I notice his is just a little cuter. I think to myself- hey, this is my thing...I'm supposed to be better than you at this. (at least he wouldn't know how to roll out/bake the dough or do stained glass windows, right?...) Oh well. It's so backwards- I built the house and he decorated. :) Luckily I get to do most of the decorating in our life-size home! Notice the snowman sledding and the ivy growing up the house? Yup, Brad did that. He truly is a man of many talents.
He is...the most interesting man in the world. XX
Every time I see your cute stained glass gingerbread houses I want to come to your parents house on Thanksgiving so bad so I can learn and share in the festivities. SO CUTE! I'm jealous. One of these years, you just might have to teach me. Jolly Ranchers? Life Savers? What's the trick? I still remember making those thumb print cookies at your house even if you don't remember it. :)
