I was supposed to have five kids in my class, but only two showed up. That was a big disappointment (and frustrating, considering the six hours I spent on making the houses the night before), however the two little girls who did come had such a great time it was hard to stay upset about the turnout. One of their moms decorated a house, Ryan came and decorated a house (and helped me out a lot), and the other two houses went home with my mom and to my parents' neighbors.
At least nothing was wasted.
Here are a few more shots from the whole shebang. These are the houses Saturday morning, before I left:
This is another decorated house - don't you love the door made of licorice rope and icing?
And here are the backs of the houses shown above:
I love the candy cane hearts and ice cream cone trees. The kids were so creative!
I wish I had the chance to decorate a house. One thing I know for certain is that there's going to be a lot of gingerbread houses in my future.
