Gingerbread Night

My parents invite a couple ward families over each year to do gingerbread houses... this is the whole lot of em. My mom made REAL gingerbread!


This is the one I started until Owen got sick... so my dad got to finish it up with a little help from Drew.

Stay tuned for New Year's Eve when the houses get blown up!

Ok, I just made and decorated my first gingerbread house and it took me probably 7 hrs. total! I'm angry at it and would love to blow it up! Can I copy you?? How long are you in town for? Any room in your busy schedule for a lunch date?
