Saturday 20th December
Rob found (and decided it was a GREAT idea to make again) Gingerbread Village and Santa Sleighs....
Last time we did these we found that the gingerbread (although nice and firm) did not taste like anything decent.... this time, they actually tasted ok - but they crumbled.... and didn't hold together.... BUT... the kids had fun making them.....
Ready to start...
Uncle Frank came to help....
You can see in front of Frank's gingerbread house that he's had to carve bits off the houses to make them fit into the trays....
The kids decorating the sleighs...
These are the candy canes they sent to build the sleigh runners (or whatever they're called) - unfortunately - most of them were broken.... bad packaging!
The sleigh sides all decorated....
The Gingerbread houses......
I felt they looked a bit plain - so I spruced them up!
After this we headed to the town pool for a swim... by the time we came home the ants had found everything - so they all got thrown out.....
