As a mom of six, one of the things I attribute to my family’s closeness is the special traditions and fun memories we create together. From family challenges to traveling together and themed parties, my husband and I are intentional about making these moments meaningful for our family.
The holidays are our favorite time of year, and one tradition that has become a highlight is our annual gingerbread house-building party with friends. It’s a festive and delicious way to celebrate the season, strengthen connections, and build memories that we’ll cherish for years to come.
Our Gingerbread Party
Our daughter, Ella wanted to invite some friends over during the holidays and we thought what fun it would be to have them all make their own tiny gingerbread house. We loved that we only had to make one stop at Walmart to create this festive-themed gingerbread party and better yet, we got it all for less!
