Building, Decorating, & More

Jason and Megan are the King and Queen of Hosting. They love to have people over. And, we love to come on over:). They invited several families to come on over for a Gingerbread House Decorating Party. And, so we showed up ready to build, decorate, and more.

Building takes intense concentration, of course.






And, one can't decorate very well unless he has tasted the goods to make sure they are house worthy. mmmmm.



Oh yeah. The goods were all good enough to decorate with and to eat.




Wes' finished house....yes, he had some help with Mom since his attention span didn't last long enough to do it all himself. Besides, Catherine had some fun decorating it anyways.


Sierra's masterpiece above and Zane's delicious piece of work below.



And, of course, they were all eaten that night.
Lance was nice and gave his house to a little girl who wanted it. So, he played with Brock the whole time. I don't think he really minded missing out on the decorating anyways, but I was impressed with his thoughtfulness. Now, if he could just be that nice to his own sister:)

I am lauging at your comment about Lance being as nice to his sister as that girl. Isn't that SO how it works? In our family it's Carson & Conner who struggle. Conner is still an annoying 9 year old to a know-it-all 14 year old and the combo is explosive! Yet, Carson is so patient with 6 year old Corbin (Because he's the cute baby of the family or something) and Cars can be the best babysitter for other people. Oh well ... I love the taste testing photos, too. Cute housese, by the way!
