Annual Gingerbread House!

Every year since I was 7, my Grannie and I have made a gingerbread house for Christmas. This year we decided on a toy store. Our plans to start on it early were interrupted by a week-long hospital stay for Grannie. I finished the toy store the day after Christmas and although Grannie was unable to help ice and decorate, she provided instructions and advice as I worked on the shop! If you look closely, you will see toys in the window (a rolo for a drum, teddy graham for teddy bear, tootsie roll for a football, and gumballs for balls). Gotta love traditions!
