Gingerbread Workshop

Holiday activities are keeping our schedule jam-packed!  The other afternoon Maksim and I did some gingerbread house decorating at the town library while Deklan (and Bryon) napped.  

Maksim was thoughtful enough to request making a 2nd gingerbread house so that Dek wouldn't feel too left out.  We read some festive books while our "cement" dried.  Then it was off to the "exterior design" table to pick out decorations!

I was in charge of decorating Deklan's gingerbread house, while Maksim had full control over what his looked like.  The chimney additions on each house were all Maks' idea!  

He was so proud of his finished product!

I couldn't help but taking a 2nd picture to document the other side of this masterpiece.  I'm extremely partial to the sucker he placed on the roof!

Deklan was content to have the finished product when he woke up.  I'm told they didn't taste too bad, either...

We brought home 2 additional gingerbread house construction/decorating kits to keep us busy throughout the week.  Such an easy activity when using graham crackers instead of actual gingerbread!

Stay warm out there!
