jacob's gingerbread house 2006

Jacob's Nana (Ann), his mom's cousin, Cody, and Jacob built a gingerbread house on December 21st. As usual, Jacob enjoyed eating the candy on the gingerbread house almost as much as putting it together. Nana's architectural skills were tested to the limit, however, when the roof pieces kept sliding off of the house. Kathy tried to help, but failed utterly, when one piece of the roof fell off and broke. On the plus side, Jacob has been eating the roof, a few pieces at a time. Next year Nana pledged to let the house dry and settle before decorating it. Jacob, however, has been undettered from his joyful feelings about the house. He likes to point to it and say: "I made that!"
