Gingerbread house

One of the wonderful things about having Kelly live with us is that she helps make memories with Laine too. I was just beginning to think about doing a gingerbread house with Laine for the first time this year when Kelly mentioned that she wanted to do that with her. So I passed the baton and let her take over. They had such a fun morning together!

You can see the excitement in Laine's face as she enjoyed the candies before putting them on the house. And then she got down to business and started concentrating on where to put each piece.

And of course there's no better outfit to wear while decorating a gingerbread house than a pretty princess dress!

The finished product turned out beautifully. Thanks, Kelly, for helping Laine build her first gingerbread house!
