Gingerbread Tragedy

I bought a gingerbread house kit and thought the kids and I could just "slap together" a gingerbread house in a few minutes as a fun holiday activity.

I was wrong. Apparently, it needs hours to dry and set. Between my impatience and Tobin's love for frosting and candy, we managed to create the world's ugliest gingerbread house.


I am including a picture from my friend Valli's blog. Guess which one is ours...

Nice! Your gingerbread house looks like some of the houses Lance could renovate. Maybe Tobin could do the same thing.

I see you stole the cute palm tree background before I could. Well played, Rasmussens. Well played indeed.

okay okay...next year a ginger bread house decorating cook off. Did I mention it was over a 2 hour process, and yes I think I was a little more into it than the kids. I should have posted the picture of it after Drake decided to sit on it! What a MESS!
Okay your Christmas card...Loved it! I don't think your kids could get any cuter....we can't wait until Gavin can start dating Zoe! She is such a doll:)
