Decorating the Gingerbread house

My parents came up over the weekend to help us celebrate Jake's 16th Birthday!  I tried to keep both of them busy while they were here!  I had mom make skirts for the girls (they turned out super cute!  Pictures to come later), and Dad and I made candy.  We made 2 pans of peanut brittle and a pan of toffee.

Saturday night we decorated our Gingerbread house!  Here are some pictures of the decorating fun!

 You can see my peanut brittle in this picture!

 I let the boys take the pictures while I was putting royal icing on the gingerbread house. Apparently it's more fun to take close up pictures of your brothers face than to take pictures of  the gingerbread house.

 I cannot get this girl to not pull faces when I take her pictures, these pictures are gems!
