Album:2006:11-24 Thanksgiving:Gingerbread Houses

For many years (ending in 2006) we had a tradition of making Gingerbread Houses after Xgiving. I have a feeling that next year the Mike and April Ljung family will continue the tradition. Afterwards, I visited my brother and his family before heading off to the airport.
My brother and his spawn,
preparing for a game of tag.
And the kids are off running! A strange man
chases children in the park. Someone call the authorities. [Video, 6.9M]
Sophie catches his pops,
hanging by a thread. [Video, 3.7M]
Then it's back inside.. ..for Gingerbread houses! Mom and Dad work
on what shall be hereafter called the House Of Usher.
The kids have eaten so much sugar
at this point, that even the red-eye reduction on my camera doesn't work.
The House Of Usher
starts to foreshadow it's future.
Sophie is caught
stealing yet more candy, thanks to our 24h security cams.
The House Of Usher.
(And the end of the Gingerbread tradition at the Ljung Household)
I go for a hike with my pops,
around Illinois marsh.
I visit my brother's family. We play a game of hide and go seek. The kids have trouble finding me,
since they figure I can't fit under the sink.
