Gingerbread Houses

This year we decided to split our gingerbread house making into 2 nights. One for the adults....while the kids were in bed and another just for the kids.
The Girls -- Building the Alamo
The Boys -- Constructing the Eiffel Tower
Derek's BIL, Dan, made this sugar "glue" that was awesome! Nice and solid.

Now on to the kids night.......
We started out with a dinner of hot dogs, fries, and a veggie tray.

The girls I'm sure enjoyed the fun of making the houses...

the girls houses looked really good! Whenever I made gingerbread houses, mine always fell over. I guess it wasn't structuraly sound. haha.
