Call me crazy... but this is a favorite Christmas tradition from when I was growing up! And we're have this beautiful new kitchen and are enjoying building up to Christmas in our new home this year!
So, I found pattern peices and recipes and notes from my Mom and Dad - which was a real treat! And my Aunt Carol sent me photos of her family's Gingerbread Houses -- a true inspiration -- Thanks Guys!!! And we were off & running:
First the cookie dough.
Then decorate the pieces.
Liv was impressed with my progress when she got up from nap.
Then construction and final decorating touches.
Happy Holidays, Everyone!!

Some traditions just have to be passed down through the generations. So glad you are keeping this one going!! Love, Jo Ann
