Tia's first Gingerbread House..and our 1st video on the web

Last night Alayne helped Tia make her first Gingerbread House. We tried to capture some of this on video. I have now edited this video and unfortunately it doesn't have the best picture. I will need to work on that part of it.

So go ahead and clink on the picture below. There is sound as well.

Let us know what you think. If its a hit we'll add more videos now that we know how. But remember we need to know if you are even watching it. Otherwise why make the movies.

We hope everyone is enjoying the Christmas Season!
