Since Zane and I were married, I have loved the idea of creating gingerbread houses each Christmas. Of the nearly five years of marriage, I think we have made them a total of two years. I know it's not really a tradition yet, but I really like doing this... on the most part.

Making the walls from scratch is no big deal, and I thought I would "glue" them together with this idea I found on Pinterest. It's a basic sugar water mixture, but in the end I found it was easier just to hot glue the suckers together. Trust me. The actual building is the worst part of these! |

| Adella made quite a lovely home, but she was more interested in eating extra candy pieces. |

| Zack's house really turned out to be a drenched rooftop. He put pieces onto the roof, slid them off, then proceeded to eat them and lick the icing off the house. |
We had Adella's friend over for the decorating party because we had an extra house. It was a blast to watch these kids make their homes.
