"Our Father in Heaven has given us, His children, much more than any mortal mind can comprehend. Under His direction the Great Jehovah created this wonderous world we live in . God the Father watches over us, fills our hearts with breathtaking joy, brightens our darkest hours with blessed peace, distills upon our minds precious truths, shepherds us through times of distress, rejoices when we rejoice, and answers our righteous petitions." Dieter F. Uchtdorf, "The Love of God," Ensign, Nov. 2009

Gingerbread Carousel

This Christmas I wanted to start a tradition baking a ginger bread house with the kids. Ours didn't quite turn out (good thing I wasn't an architect) the roof was way to heavy for the house and after half the shingles were on it caved in. Luckily I live with a Culinary Arts Graduate, (Emily) who decided to help us build another one. But instead of a house we built a carousel with reindeer. It was fun, it helped get us into the holiday spirit. We really enjoyed it. I let her know I expect her over every year now to help us build one, because she did such a great job.

How CUTE! I love it! I have never been brave enough to try to make one myself. It just looks too hard. Maybe now that you know how to do it, you'll have to teach me. The carousel turned out adorable!

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun! My kids keep asking if we can make gingerbread houses, but we keep putting it off. Maybe tonight.
