Gingerbread Houses

Our local library held gingerbread houses decorating for the kids every year for years and years.  Then a series of circumstances meant that they had to stop offering it.  Until this year.  And we just happened to me at the library the day that the sign-ups opened, so we JUMPED at the chance to sign up.  The houses are really graham crackers, but the results are just as satisfying to the kids.  Since Mimi spent the night with a friend the night before, we took her along with us, and thanks to some "no-shows" she was able to decorate a house too, and even bring 2 home to her younger siblings.
