Today, these little elves came to our house to construct Gingerbread houses. The easy kind (ha!) using graham crackers.
Mr C got in on the act and designed this Mid-century Modern Marvel:
With her Mom’s help, Mia constructed this delightful cottage complete with a gumdrop birdy atop the tree.
And Milo and his mom fashioned this festive cottage.
These are going to grace the table at our Christmas dinner
Oh, you are wondering where the disaster is? Look at my house:
I am going back to quilting. I leave you with this beautiful photo:
Gerrie, once again you made me laugh. What lucky grandchildren you have, it’s one fun day after another!
I’m not much of a gingerbread (or graham cracker) architect either. Jen
Nah, put a sign on it saying “Remember Katrina!” and enjoy it!
What fun!!!! I know when I see pictures like these that you and Mr C are truly enjoying your move!

Miles and Mia inherited Architect genes. Obviously you didn’t! Miles’ face says it all.
I’m laughing with you, really. *hee hee* Looks like that NW storm was a doozy!
Just call it a post-earthquake California home! Then, go check out this masterpiece and it’s ultimate fate:
