Gingerbread Houses

 We went to our friend's house last night to make Gingerbread Houses.  These are the same wonderful friends we carved pumpkins with on Halloween.  There were so many different candies to choose from.

Paul and I wanted to make a two story house, but after it fell down, we decided to go with two roofs instead.  I think it turned out pretty cute.  Looks yummy, right?????

Of course there was a lot of eating of the candy to go along with the decorating!


We also read from The Gratitude Challenge in the Ensign and we all said the following things we were grateful for:

1.  Physical ability you are grateful for.
2.  Material possession you are grateful for.
3.  Living person you are grateful for.
4.  Deceased person you are grateful for.
5.  Thing in nature you are grateful for.
6.  Thing about today you are grateful for.
7.  Place on earth you are grateful for.
8.  Modern invention you are grateful for.
9.  Food you are grateful for.
10.  Thing about the gospel you are grateful for.


The Gratitude Challenge actually asks you to list 10 of each item you are grateful for, but in the interest of time, we each just selected one.  It would actually be very easy to answer each question with 10 things.  Paul and I feel truly blessed and we have much to be thankful for.

Paul just wanted to show our heads with the house.  He's such a goofball! :)

All 5 of the gingerbread houses.  They were each very different, but all incredible!!!
