Gingerbread House

On Sunday night we decided to decorate a Gingerbread House!  I thought that Tyson would try to destroy the entire thing within seconds, but he did a great job.  He sat and watched Brian and I.  Brian decorated one side and I the other.  I got off my chair to get some extra candy and I turn around to this adorable sight…

He grabbed some candy and started placing the candies kind of how I was doing it.  I was really proud of him.

Then he started eating some of the candy…

Love that chubby little hand!  You can tell his pieces are the non-traditional Christmas colors : )

Admiring his work…IMG_9066

And of course throwing a huge tantrum when we were finished.  He does this anytime he doesn’t get what he wants.  Just a hard life ya know?!

By the way, Tyson is picking off the gum drop pieces off the very top of the roof as I am typing this.  I don’t think the candy on that house is going to last much longer : )

How fun!!! We're hoping to do one soon..except my mom does the molds for chocolate houses instead of gingerbread. That is so cute that he helped out! I miss you guys!

Looks great! I'm actually relieved to see him throwing a tantrum on here. Taylor throws them ALL the time, and I was starting to think she was way out of line for her age! ha But, he sure is adorable!

I love doing gingerbread houses with my boys also, and I am pretty sure more candy gets eaten then what actually makes in on the house. Oh well, gotta love'em :)
