The Gingerbread Challenge

I thought it would be fun to attempt a gingerbread house this year. We had fun, but it was a challenge. Notice the pill bottles holding up the roof in the top picture. First we made the icing too thin and then it was too thick. But the kids had a good time putting the treats all over the house.

As a little side note: we are currently in the midst of day two of potty training Nor-Nor. Let me just say, I thought that with my stubborn, hard to train first born, that things might go a little smoother the second time around. Boy was I wrong or what!!!!! We have had only two successes amidst a sea of failures, but there is no turning back now. Please pray that we get through this as smoothly as possible.
