Candy Trains

At the Passey house instead of gingerbread houses we do candy trains. Everyone gets a candy bar to start out the train and some black licorice for the track. The rest is up to you on what you want to do. It's great because there is no crying over broken down houses.

Lee, Zac, and I came in for the tail end of this activity. We had been visiting Wendy and Greg and missed all of the cinnamon Santas, but we did get a Twix. My favorite!

We represented San Fransisco well with our trolley car. We decided to do an aerial view of the trolley turn a round at Ghirardelli Square. Unfortunately for us we were not able to pile high chocolate, but instead lined it with smarties. We probably spent more time figuring out what we were going to do and looking it up on Google then actually decorating ours.

Cait had one of our favorites this year! :)

Finished products!!

We were all laughing at how we used to door bell ditch these to our primary teachers when we were little. I'm sure they loved having something that we created with licked fingers when placing each candy.
