gingerbread houses

when all the cousins get together before christmas, it has become a tradition to decorate gingerbread houses. we have learned through the past years that it works best if we divide these cousins up into groups for the festivities. for some reason the 12 year old girls have different decorating ideas than the 6 year old boys:)

i don’t know how i missed getting a final picture of the big girls house, sorry girls.

we are so glad that all of these cousins come to grandma’s house at christmas time so we can make these fun memories.
