Ok, so I can't keep my mouth shut! This thing started out with the idea that it would be soooo much fun! We have made them in the past and loved it! However, this one was different in that the roof piece was not in tact. It was cracked right down the middle. We thought we could repair it with frosting and my husband even thought he could repair it with a piece of a wood shim (ha), but to no avail, as you can see! What a sad, sad end to a Christmas tradition! What I chose to edit out was all of the super glue and tacky glue I tried to use to hold it together, as a last ditch effort to save the dumb thing! ha!
Well, I was going to say, "At least you guys can eat it," but if you truly put glue on it, I wouldn't recommend making your kids the ones that eat glue. hahaha
I am 30 some years old. I have 1 step, 4 bio, and 2 adopted kids, so I am no stranger to chaos! They range in age from 18 months to 16 years, so it is always interesting! I have been staying at home for 2 years, because I could not afford gas and day care both! Recession, who says there is a recession? The American people have it great, right? Anyway, my husband supported the idea of me being home, so that is just the way it is for now. Sadly, right after I quit last year my mom got sick again and we lost her in Sept., so my being home was really helpful to her and me if I really stop to think about it! I guess that is enough of my crazed babbling for this section!
