I have to say, I'm pretty proud of our beautiful graham cracker house! I'm happy we got it to just simply stand! It was tough! Thanks to Chels for taking pics!
This is the look of utter concentration! oh, and keara licking the frosting off her fingers. All lot of that went on :)
In the works (notice the mess, what's christmas house making without the mess?).
Yes, we're weird, but life is more fun that way.
Keara made the snowman (the licorice scarf was my idea), and the santa/rudolph. Isn't rudolph so cute? he's made out of teddy grahams!
Finished product (no more mess!). I did my traditional gum drop light post. Oh, and yes, there is a teddy graham elf going down the chimney. Who knows how he got up there, since santa is on the ground :) The railings for the sidewalk turned out great!!
We are so proud of the house we made!
This is my favorite part! If you can't tell, they're having a snowball fight, behind their forts. The guy in the middle is getting whitewashed :) lol.
Closeup of the whitewashing.
This is my favorite! Notice the one holding the snow :) we spared no details!
**Note: the green is where they dug the snow up for snowballs and the grass is showing through, haha, in case you couldn't tell.
This was so fun, and manda, don't go saying the you can't believe I did it without you, because I will glady do it again! The best part about making these houses is being creative, oh wait no, EATING the pieces that you mess up on is the best. Being creative is second! :)
**Note #2: If you steal any of our ideas, you must cite us! haha, just kidding.

Wow, I'm not going to compete! I usually give up on the creative part about 30 seconds into it because...well, let's face it, I'm just not creative! :) Looks like you guys had fun.
