Gingerbread Train

I found this Gingerbread Train at Target last week and thought Benjamin would have fun trying to put it together. He helped me assemble the train and then I put frosting everywhere for him to decorate with candy. I think most of the candy got eaten rather then put on by him. Most of the candy that did land on it was put on by myself. Over the next few days we caught him several times randomly eating the candy off the train. Jon asked if he was suppose to do that. I think he thought it was only for decoration. When I was growing up we would make a Christmas Train and then fill the cars with candy. Maybe that's what we will do next year. I was trying to get a good picture of Ben with the finished product but hence, the goofy picture. If you're wondering, in the last picture, he's giving a thumbs up and high five on a job well done. The things he learns at school.

Aww! I miss that adorable smile. Good old Ben. Hannah still points across the quad sometimes and says "Ben's house!" I love the gingerbread train. What a cute idea.
