Christmas Candy Houses 2012.

Today we stayed home. I like staying home. We ended up having the Kennedy kids over for a few hours, which worked out perfect. They all kept each other entertained and with friends around there are less bickering battles between my two kids. Spur of the moment I decided to do our annual gingerbread houses today, with these kids. We usually do real gingerbread, but this time we settled for graham cracker houses. I had picked up red and green starlight mints a couple of weeks ago, because the stores always run out.....and the rest we rummaged up from various places in the house and pantry. Misc. candy that never gets eaten, but is fun and colorful. I hot glued the houses together, and then called the kids to come decorate to their little candy-land hearts content.
