Post-Christmas Fun

We bought a gingerbread house at the end of 2008 thinking that we would decorate it, but I gave birth to Caleb instead and we just never got around to it.  One year later, I retrieve the unopened gingerbread house to finally decorate it before Christmas…but alas, it still remained in the box.  We finally did get around to decorating it though, the day after New Year’s Day.  Ben and I ended up doing most of the decorating.  JL was too busy asking every 2 seconds whether he could eat various pieces of all the different candies.  He also made various decorating requests and here’s how it turned out…
