Our Gingerbread Houses!!!

Jackson and I have made making our gingerbread house an annual tradition!!!  And this year we actually made two!!  I volunteered in Jackson's class last week to help all the kids make their own gingerbread houses which was so much fun!!!  They all liked to eat the candy way more than to actually make the houses but all the houses turned out so cute!!!  And then I was able to stay and have lunch with Jackson and then do a craft and watch him play on the playground with all his little friends!!  it is always so much fun spending time with Jackson and his classmates!!! Then Jackson and I made our own gingerbread house at home which turned out so cute too!!  It was so much fun although Jackson mainly ate the icing until it was time to decorate but he was a big help putting the candy on and it was fun to spend time with my little guy!!  Here are a few pictures of our gingerbread houses!!!  Enjoy!!!

The ingredients!! We made the icing at school to make the graham crackers stick to the milk cartons!
