There always seems to be other things I’d rather do with the boys than decorate gingerbread houses at Christmas, but when I saw the orange, green, and purple frosting at the store, I thought they might like making Haunted Houses for Halloween. I was right.
I’ve got to admit, they surprised me at how serious they took their house making …
And we learned that Rusty might need just a bit more, um, supervision when sprinkles are involved.
I had to make one for Bobby. Yeah, that’s why I made it.
Tommy couldn’t get enough of the frosting. He loved squeezing it … and adding more and more and more …
Kevin just made the off-hand comment about Tommy’s use of frosting, “Tommy, you win the award for the tallest haunted house!” Rusty didn’t miss a beat, “What award to I get?” So then Kevin had to divy out awards …
I got the prettiest haunted house award.
They all turned out fabulous! The boys couldn’t eat them until November 1st.
