Gingerbread house

Thanksgiving was good.  This year we had it at my house again.  Grandma and Ernestine came.  It was a small gathering, but we had good food.  I felt terrible all day and don’t know what was wrong, I was just weak.  Peanut and I took a 2 hour nap.  Shane went in to work that night.  Grandma called me panicking that night and her Christmas tree had fell over and broke her favorite ornament that Lowegan had gotten for her years ago.  We went up there and set it up and cleaned up the mess.  I went that next morning to Wal Mart and got her a prelit tree.  I did get up and go early because Shane gets off at 6:00 and I wanted to be back before the children woke up.  I never do that, but I lived thru it this time.  When I got home, Peanut was all snuggled up with Shane and it was so sweet.  She slept till nearly 9:00 when I finally woke her up. 

Today, Grandma was wanting to go to Lebanon so Peanut and I took her down there and got her shopping finshed up.  I bought a gingerbread house kit.  When we got home, Peanut bugged the fire out of me till we “build it”.  I had never tried this before so it turned out pretty good for us beginners.  It’s definately worth the $9.00 and lots of fun for all of us.

So, what do you think of our work of art?

    I think you did a great job! My sister makes them with graham crackers! You should have seen her two boys and my two grandsons making them. They had a blast!
