The little elves that run our advent calendar have been keeping us quite busy this week. They had us baking Christmas cookies, writing a letter to Santa, having game nights...


Then bright and early Sunday morning, Poppy checked the advent calendar and she found a little note that said we were going to eat breakfast inside of a gingerbread house. She was a little confused by this - she didn't understand how we would fit inside of a gingerbread house!
We drove up to Canada and went to the Great Wolf Lodge, where they had built a giant gingerbread house as a fundraiser. For a donation to their charity, you could eat at the single table inside of the gingerbread house!
Here's what the outside of the house looks like. The house was really made out of cookies, chocolate, pretzels, candy and icing! Poppy was in awe when she saw it...


It was so cool that we had the whole gingerbread house all to ourselves!


Poppy was so excited that she barely ate anything for breakfast. We all had such a great time! And the Great Wolf Lodge was quite possibly the coolest place ever! We were able to get a tour and see what the rooms look like and see the waterpark. Poppy was staring at the waterpark and she sadly said, "I wish I had my bathing suit." Don't worry Poppy - we will definitely be going back for a fun weekend trip!
