Gingerbread fun with Aunt Nanny

Yesterday and today, while I was at work, Aunt Nanny and the kids worked on a very fun holiday project! On Monday I made gingerbread men and panels and we went to the store and purchased a lot of candy and sprinkles. On Tuesday, Deanna made royal icing with the kids and started constructing the house. We used a whopper container (leftover from the sweet turkey treats) and it worked very well. Today, they worked on decorating the house and all the gingerbread men. Here are some pictures of the kids working on their project.. stay tuned for more pictures of the finished product.
All ready with their aprons and sprinklesAunt Nanny coolest aunt/nanny around!
Deanna said Miss O had to go wash her hands a lot, she couldn't seem to keep them out of her mouth..... The sugar cookies they decorated, Deanna said these were before she made the 5 pieces of candy per cookie rule
So Mr. T had one job, to decorate the wreath... as you can see he was quite excited about this
Although he thought the sprinkles should go in his mouth instead of on the wreath...
The sugar is starting to get to her...
Miss O working hard to get the sprinkles just right
