Things to take into account is: the picture on the box is always deceiving, and half of the candy is going to be eaten by the time the house is done. With that in mind I think it turned out pretty well. 
On the subject of X-mas, two weeks ago we put up our Christmas tree while Gabe's parents were in town. And of course it is one those trees that you have to put every single branch on. Right about the time we got done fluffing, and decorating it, the dang thing toppled over! The poll was pretty bent from the year before, and only got worst. We tried everything we could to fix it, but it kept falling over. Just when we thought we had it working again, it fell over right next to McKylah. So as you can guess we figured it probably wasn't the best of ideas to keep it up. So later that night we went to the store and bought a pre-lit already assembled tree. We made sure it was one of those easy ones made for people who had already put one up earlier in the day, and didn't want to go through the hassle of doing it again.
So it maybe smaller now, but it was a lot less work which means it is a lot better!

love the tree!! And the gingerbread house too!! I can't believe Christmas is here!!
Ok, how the heck do you have ornaments on the bottom half of your tree and Christmas presents?!!!! You should see my tree, oh my gosh! Being a little OCD, I'm having a very hard time with the fact that I can only have ornaments on the top half of the tree b/c the boys love to pull them off! And presents! Caden doesnt open them? Those suckers wouldnt last 2 seconds in our house if I put them out early :)
Merry Christmas Meghan! Love the pictures and post! Wish we were closer so we could meet for lunch..... :)
That is funny. Ethan has already broken 3 ornaments. It sure isn't easy with a little one around is it. Your tree looks lovely.
