Christmas Eve/a sad day for Gingerbread houses

We worked hard to make gingerbread walls for all the kids to all build gingerbread houses.  Anna was especially excited to make a gingerbread house with Uncle Ben because he did a great job working with her last time we did this.  Unfortunately, this year Uncle Ben had too many drinks before and wasn't very helpful and the house he started for her could barely stay up.
Just Luke, Anna and Maeve were interested in making houses.  They had fun.  This is probably a tradition that won't be repeated with the cousins.😞Too much work to prepare for and not enough interest from all the kids.  

Anna was very careful making her patterns and putting her candy on.

Maeve worked hard too and her house looked great!  She even used her little gingerbread man we made. 💕

Lukey's house looked great too!

The sad walls on Anna's house that kept falling.
