We started this house on Saturday (two whole days ago) and just finished it today. It's not because we were too busy, or the kids were disinterested, but because we (mostly me) could not get the house to actually stay together. The walls kept collapsing and the roof kept sliding off ... And at one point we had to run supports on each side in attempts to hold up the roof whole it dried.
Eventually it held together. However, it's about as stable as a house of cards. And after two days of begging to work on the house, Brooke quickly got bored and wanted to eat the candy (vs use it to decorate it).
Next year, if I can will myself to attempt this again, we are going to need a new strategy.
