Come On, Ride That Train

Last year, we made a gingerbread train from a kit on Christmas Eve. This year, it is all Beckham has talked about. So, we rolled our own dough and made a train from scratch. Christmas Eve morning, we woke up and made the icing so we could put our train together and decorate it. SO MUCH FUN!

The boys had a blast putting peppermints, candy canes, jujubis, mini m&m's, spiced gumdrops, and marshmallows on their awesome train.

I also had fun :) And I got to dole out the icing for them to stick things on.

The proud and very excited train decorators. . .

And the final results! (The rear car says "parker".)

And you can't make gingerbread without eating your very own gingerbread man!

YUM!
