Gingerbread (?) houses

OK, I admit it! I'm not a molly mormon. I didn't get up early in the morning on Friday to slave away making gingerbread from scratch for our family gingerbread activity. In fact, I'm so not a molly, I didn't even check our supply of graham crackers before we started this adventure. That's why our houses are "petite" We were limited on our graham cracker supply!



You'll notice Brent is on the phone in this picture. Yes, bishopric duties don't stop for gingerbread house making. Brent's pretty good at multi-tasking while on the telephone.



So here they are, close up and one shot with all of them. I think you can tell which one is Braden's - it has the most sugar amount in frosting and candy. Brent did a long house, and I did a sweet cottage.



Today, one of Braden's first questions was, "When do we get to eat our gingerbread houses?" Ah, hungry boys. We told him we wanted to enjoy them for awhile before we ate them!!!
