Gingerbread House

Every year on my side of the family we make a gingerbread house and then eat/destroy it on Christmas. :)
I don't have any pictures of eating it but here are some of building it.

Merry Christmas!!

Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called the sons of God.
Therefor the world does not know us because it knew Him not.
1 John 3:1


Merry Christmas!!! May this Christmas be filled with family and friends and many happy memories!!
