Gingerbread Houses

For many the building and decorating of gingerbread houses is a fun holiday tradition. For me, it is just that, but a little more complicated. For two years running, I have not created a gingerbread house, but a gingerbread disaster! No matter the approach, it seems to last only a moment before collapsing. This year prior to starting I was given a pep talk by my 6 year old partner and together we were able to create a one of a kind beach house complete with a lounge chair and pool. It was decided that the skills of a kindergartner was all that was needed.

I even dared try again with Trent's family...it too stood. But only for a short while.
