Gingerbread House

Addison is almost two, so I thought it would be a good idea to let her decorate a gingerbread house this year. Mimi (my mom) bought her a Wilton house that was already constructed and all we had to do was mix the icing and decorate the house with the rock hard candy that was included in the kit. All I can say is lesson learned. We mixed the icing and put on the candies, but the icing tasted gross and the candies were not edible by any stretch of the imagination. Next year, I will make the house or the cookies and buy the candy fresh. Addison was trying eat the candy that came with the house the entire time and I was afraid she was going to break a tooth. However, it was a fun experience and here a few pictures to share.
