Gingerbread Tree

So ever since we had Kenzi, we have wanted to start a tradition of putting together a gingerbread house! We were successful when Kenzi was 18 months. Talk about sugar coma! However, We have completely been unsuccessful every other year! But for the past two years we have gotten a gingerbread house and gingerbread tree. So I said that we were going to put them together this year or this tradition is dead before it ever really started! We got out the house and the icing was rock solid. So I said I would make icing and we could do it another night. Then we got out the tree and the smart people at Wilton had a powder mixture that you add water too. So thus we were able to put together the Gingerbread Tree!!

Kenzi still eating and me working!


Kenzi wanted to take a picture and this is what she got. We may have a natural on our hands folks!

Family portrait with our finished product. Not bad! Leaning a little, but not bad!

The spoils after your work is done! I think Carter got the bag about 2 feet above Kenzi's head!

We had such a great time doing the tree we all are looking forward to doing the house! Happy Holidays, everybody!
