At the beginning of December I helped Jonathan's class create a gingerbread house for a competition held at the high school. It was a much BIGGER project than I thought, but it turned out so great!! Another mom and I made the house pieces the night before (plus a gingerbread man for each kid to decorate and eat) and then brought the house to school the next day. Each kid got to come up individually and do a part of the house (with some friendly direction from the moms there to help!), and then I took the house to the high school. Walking around the high school at lunch time with a gingerbread house is a pretty funny experience!
That night we went to see all the houses entered into the competition and there were some pretty amazing creations. We won for our category!! We may have been the only entry in our category...but we still won! And our house looked great and got lots of good comments =) It was fun to do, and hopefully something we can do again...next year...cause I don't think I can look at gingerbread for at least that long!!
