Gingerbread Houses

 My amazing friend Emily made these gingerbread houses (we're talking 6 or 7 of these puppies) for all our friends to decorate while our husbands were busy with finals.  I didn't go because I had sicky kids, but she let me take mine home with a bag of candies to decorate it.  Mine had one architectural flaw (the crack between the two windows) but I didn't mind.  I hot glued my candies so I wouldn't be tempted to eat them.   

Sadly the next morning I woke up to this. :( :( :(  The architectural flaw proved to be important.  Oh well. It was fun to decorate :)
