Valentine's Day Gingerbread Houses


Grandma Sorensen wasn't able to fit in gingerbread houses at Christmas time so she decided to do Valentine's Day houses.  What a great idea!  We did it yesterday after the kids got out of school.  There was tons of candy to choose from and the kids had fun taste testing it all.  The mom's had fun too!  We ended up decorating the houses at my house because Grandma's is being painted.


The kids worked really hard and all did a
great job with their decorating!


Here's Tori working on her house.  It took her a
long time to place each tiny little heart sprinkle
just where she wanted it on the roof.  She has a
little pond to the side with a frog in it.

Adri made a smartie house.
She taste tested the frosting quite a bit. 

Tori's finished house. 

Adri's finished house. 

Justus was gone when all of the cousins were over.  He worked on his a little, but didn't quite get it finished. 

He said he had the song 'Love Shak' stuck in his head.  Very fitting for a Valentine's day gingerbread house!

Thanks Grandma for the fun day!
