Grandma & Griffin.

Griffin has been looking forward to his "special project" with Grandma since we bought it ...


As soon a Bett walked in the door from the airport, he told her he was ready to build "the house". Well, of course that didn't happen ... but they did have the time to work on it yesterday.


They worked together to decorate it just "so" ... and to get the candies in all the right places.


Their finished gingerbread house ... the BEST gingerbread house I have ever seen!


This is a picture of Griffin when he doesn't think I'm looking ... I told him he couldn't have a piece of the gingerbread house until his Daddy got home and could see it ... he was sneaking finger dips of icing.


And another time he didn't realize I was looking ... he took the whole roof off! LOL ... oh well, it was his to enjoy!

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas Eve with your family. I've been in the kitchen most of the day whipping up some tasty treats. It will be time soon for Griffin to snuggle in for the night and for Santa Claus and his elves to get busy!

Much love to you and your families ...

Children know instinctively that the best time to eat a gingerbread house is immediately after the last nail is put in it----not so good if they are allowed to sit around and get dusty.

It's the best gingerbread house ever! They did a great job...and I'd want to sample a little of it myself after all that hard work!

Cute pictures...Merry Christmas!

It looks like they had fun making it.

What a great looking Gingerbread house, with and without the roof. I know Bett had a great time doing that with Griffin.
