Gingerbread Houses

Making gingerbread houses is now a family tradition.  We started last year and it was one of my favorite days with Cole.  It was the first time that he discovered candy (yes, as a first child and a picky eater to boot he never ate candy until he was 2!) Not only did he discover it, but he ate enough to make up for his two year absence.  This year was no exception.  He was popping in the candy faster than we could put it on the house.  Ethan caught on quickly and was shoveling it in as well.  We invited the Rhynard's over to share it with us and we had a great night.

Seattle always does a gingerbread house display and this year was a super hero theme.  We knew we had to make a visit.  We went after Christmas and Cole loved it.  He looked at each house probably 10 times.  He kept going around and around catching every detail.  Of course he had to go in one of his super hero pajamas.
