Ginger Bread houses!

My grandparents came up on Saturday... just in time to help us with our Gingerbread Houses! Every year we make gingerbread houses out of gram crackers and hot glue! They are so much fun :) This was my Grandparents first time making them... and they did a wonderful job!
In order to make the frosting (or the glue) we use we need eggs that are at room temperature... well we are too impatient to let them warm up by themselves so everyone but Mom and Dad are given the job to warm them up!
Grandpa came up with the idea of warming them in our mouths! haha o boy i love my grandpa :)We had to give it a try too...We decided that Dianne and Grandpa have the biggest mouthsThe eggs are warm, the frosting is made, the candy is on the table and now we are just waiting for the houses!... guess we will just have to entertain ourselves with sugar cube stackingMom, Dad, Grandma and Grandpa are working hard putting the houses together
YAY we finally got our houses :) now time to decorateThey are finished! and look great!
