Decorating Gingerbread

As our next family activity was decorating gingerbread.  I did another rendition of my gingerbread army (it's a smaller army this time) and had the kids decorate some gingerbread as well.
Everyone was really into this activity as well.
She had to sample her first try to make sure that it tasted as good as it looked.
While he was unable to sample his creations (I haven't found a eggless gingerbread recipe), he dominated decorating.  Apparently the call of creativity was enough to satisfy him.  Check out all those black sprinkles! Oh, and I made a batch of cookie brittle (which is Asher-friendly) a few days prior that was spiced similarly and that seemed to help.
Addilyn really let her creative juices flow and did multiple layers of icing and sprinkles. 
Even Elias enjoyed getting to make his food pretty.  
Their beautiful creations. (They didn't scrimp on the sprinkles!)
