the sea of swirly twirly gum drops

I have sick babies today, but wanted to share the gingerbread house we made a few days ago. The pre-made kit we had didn't give us nearly enough candy, in our opinion, so we added many many gumdrops left over from Eve's birthday celebration.

Gumdrops can make anything look a bit better and the colors were a great tie-in to the Christmas mantel in the living room.

Can you tell we were watching Elf when we made this?
