Gingerbread, our own version

I dislike working with gingerbread, it breaks easily and takes a long time to mix, roll, cut and bake. I tried it once and never again. The solution we had when were were growing up was use graham crackers and glue them together, it works great.
We made 3 of them for the kids this week, 2 little ones and one big one. This was the boys house that Buddy and his friend made.
This is Princess', she was very excited about purple frosting, and her M&M path to the front door.
This one was mine. I was very proud of my front porch and the porch railing made out of candy cigarettes.
I managed to keep the kids from eating them so far, but am planning to let them attack them this weekend. I am ready for the sugar high.

This may be one of our Christmas break boredom busters this year. The kids houses look great, and so does the house made by their engineeer mom! :)
