Sweet!

For Daddy's birthday we had saved one of our Christmas presents - a box full of supplies for gingerbread house creation. We made a huge sugary mess and each put together a confectionary structural wonder! It was so fun to see what each kid did with the supplies they were given. Ksenya tried so hard to duplicate Mommy's design, Kabe tried to copy Dad with a whimsy flair of his own. Ayvri started making "sandwiches" and ended up with what looked like the little old woman's shoe and Brig was content to eat every other piece of candy Mom put on her house. Here is the finished product (oh, and Darla of course enjoyed the whole even from the comfort of Mommy's front. The child is only happy when I'm holding her).
