'Gingerbread' house

On a recent Sunday it was so cold outside that we kept the boys in the house all day. While Jana was at church and her RCIA program, Will suggested that we build a gingerbread house. Great idea! Jana deemed that graham crackers would work just as well as gingerbread cookies, and she was right.

John and I built a frame for the house, and he and Will adhered the graham cracker cladding with frosting. The frosting, that is, that didn't go directly into Will's mouth. Will ran out of steam, leaving John to do the majority of the decorating. It's going to be tough to re-sell that house, but if you're looking at comparables this one stacks up pretty darn well. Nice job guys!
