Gingerbread House

I made this gingerbread house. And it makes me happy.





Well, I decorated it. It was one of those pre-made gingerbread houses. My in-laws and I all made one. I only took pictures of mine though because I was proud of myself and other people were taking group shots, so I didn't think I needed too. But I haven't seen any of the group shots posted. But I'm not on Instragram so they might have been posted there. Anyways, the other ones where good too. But this is my blog so I'm just gonna talk about mine.
