The boys took turns kneading the pre-made royal icing:
While they were working their phalanges, I got the pieces out, organised & ready for putting together:
Mmmmmm...... Smell the gingerbread. Mmmmmm.....
Each of them decorating their "piece" (kit came with a tree, snowman & gingerbread boy):
In progress:
We we supposed to wait 15 minutes before doing the candies above ^^. I was impatient, though. Then it started getting too heavy & pieces started sliding, so I figured it was a good time to wait that 15 minutes.
We ate (it's crockpot Sunday!):

We had brotherly love:
We made crazy faces:
Then the dog started looking at us as though we'd lost our darn fool minds. Oh wait.....

How gorgeous !
In my day (listen to me, I sound like an old woman, here) we didn't have kits ! *sob* I never had a single gingerbread house turn out in almost 15 years. Not one. We used to pretend that the big bad wolf blew them down and that's why they looked like kindling. :o(
My children must hate me now.
Love the photos!!
Everyone looks so happy!
Good job, mama. :-)
