Peep houses

 We had the girls overnight this weekend and had fun as usual. One of the fun things we did was to make Peep houses!  I saw this on FB and knew the girls would have fun with it.
All you need is graham crackers, frosting, green sprinkles, some Easter candy (we used jelly beans and M&M's) and some marshmallow peeps.  (We used bunnies, but any type would work)

We started by spreading frosting on a disc that we put on a paper plate.  We then put green sprinkles on it to represent grass.  
We then took 3 graham cracker halves, put frosting on the edges and stood them together in the frosting
grass and pressing the seams together, with an opening in front.
Then we took 2 more graham cracker halves, put more frosting on the edges, and put them on top for a roof.

We added frosting to the top and put M&M's over the top to decorate it.  This is Ruby working on hers.

Here's Bob helping Alaina hold her house together while she decorates it.
We put jelly beans in the "grass" and then added our Peep bunnies inside the house.

Here's the house Ruby and I did.

Here's Bob an Alaina with their creation.

And here they both are!  Fun to make, and they stayed together long enough for us to get them back to the girls houses.
I will say that there were quite a few jelly beans, M&M's and even a few Peeps eaten during construction!

The girls made a few other construction projects while they were over.  They were pretty proud of this castle they made and asked me to take a picture of it.

And they love playing with Lego's too, and had great fun making lots of things with them.

We sure love spending time with them!
