Lovely creation by Miwa and I

My sister Miwa and I built a gingerbread house this evening! I love building them but hadn’t built one in years, and so I determined to construct one this year! It came out a little messy because we didn’t have a piping bag and tips back at my parents’ house in Virginia, but we like to think it has personality! 😛

Dan and Mio are impressed.

 

The architects!
The architects! Sisters Miwa and Misono.

 

Holding Mio back.
Mio's first encounter with a gingerbread house... and she can't wait to get her hands on it!

Hurricane Mio is about to strike...

 

Mio was very upset.
We caught her in time to save the gingerbread house, but she was not happy....

 

I can’t wait until the day comes when Mio is old enough to build gingerbread houses with me! 😀
