While we were grocery shopping on Wednesday morning, the kids saw a gingerbread house kit and wanted to buy it. I had already been thinking it would be a fun thing to do this year, so we bought it. Although the kids wanted to do it as soon as we got home from the store, I told them we had to pick a night when everyone was home so Daddy could help too. So Thursday night was the big night!

Here we are with our creation
the finished product
As Justin said, "It looks just like the box!" :-) We asked the kids if they thought it looked just like the box, and they said no. So I asked them which one was better--ours or the one on the box--and they said ours!
If you noticed the title of this post is "2 Gingerbread Houses" and you're wondering where the second one is--this is 2 in 1! The FIRST and the LAST gingerbread house that we'll ever make! Unless of course the kids see one in the store next year...
