Gingerbread Houses Made with Graham Crackers

On November 28th (the Saturday after Thanksgiving) we went to Tyson's parents' house with Amber and Che' to make gingerbread houses. Tyson's parents, Dustin & Erika,
and Clark & Kristi were there too.
We had loads of candy, graham crackers, and frosting to get our little houses built. We used half & half cartons to make our houses then pasted graham crackers on them with the frosting.
It was so much fun! We had a great time and really enjoy spending time with siblings.

Tyson's final product
It's Santa!


So much concentration...


Tyson's dad also did a gingerbread house...


...and it turned out the best, pretty much.
But he also used frosting tips ha ha.


Tyson & Jack


Loads of candy and frosting


All the houses
And the car Clark made
They all turned out great!

Che's is the one with the yellow wreath.
Tyson's looks like Santa.
Erika's has the windy walkway and the round door.
Mine is next to that with the green wreath and tacky marshmallow trees and chia pet roof ha ha.
Amber's is behind mine with the colorful roof.
And Dustin's is the one in the front with Santa on the roof.

Dustin was telling a story and I can't remember at all what it was about. But I liked this picture ha ha.

How funny! I started laughing at the close-up of Tyson's house.
And I seriously don't remember you taking any pictures. Sneeky, you.

The picture of Dustin clapping his hands while telling a story made me laugh! And, of course, Dad's house turned out the best. It's just not fair!
