Gingerbread House Decorating

This past Saturday we had our friends, the Terry's and Stott's, over for dinner and gingerbread house decorating.  In the past, Em and I have always built our gingerbread house and then decorated it, but with 5 little ones, I decided it would be easiest to get the pre-built ones and let them just decorate them.

The kids needed some help with the icing, but I think they all enjoyed it.  Evan was only interested in eating the candy, so I decorated his as fast as I could in order to cut down on the amount he could consume.

Of course after searching every Target I could find, I only found 4 of the same.  So Evan got a special one from Tom Thumb. 

Our kids had a blast with their friends and they played hard!  We were all exhausted the next day from all the excitement.
