Gingerbread Everywhere!!!!

I had an amazing little helper in the kitchen today AND our house ended up smelling amazing! :) SCORE!!!

Can you guess what we were up to??

That's right - we turned our house into a Gingerbread man Factory!! :) And I couldn't have done it without the help of my little Cookie Monster who kept asking for "only one more" once they were baked and decorated :)) Yes, it did end up being a little tricky to actually save some for later :) I mean honestly, how can one be so naive to even think that, right??? :) 

So here you have it - the little worker-bee at her BEST!!! :o)

 

She LOVED decorating! But I think she loved sneaking in a "lickey" off the icing even more!! :D 

We even named some of the gingerbread in honor of my family in the States and hung them on our 

Christmas tree! Yes, I realize that sounded a little morbid :))... 

But it kinda makes me feel as though they were here with us!!! Yea, yea - call me cheesy! :)))

Daddy did end up joining us as well - in helping Vivie eat up all the cookies that those two decorated!!! :o) 

Oh and LOOK!!! I actually caught the little munchkin sneaking in another lick of icing!! 

You can see they both got pretty creative towards the end - with the partially eaten-up stars being used as "fancy hats" for the Gingerbread men :) Ummm, hello Napoleon?? :o)
Gotta love those two!! ;)
