On the Sunday before Christmas I had my first annual gingerbread house making party. It was soo much fun. I ordered a gingerbread house mold on amazon and baked three houses. After trying a few different gingerbread recipes I now know which ones work and which ones make huge messes.

I put Justin in charge of making our house. He seemed to have the creative juices flowing. He even made a reindeer out of pretzels - I wish I would have got a picture of it.

Here's Kirby and Josh's house. It was very cute and lovey dovey, just like newlyweds.

Taylors house won the "most candy used" award. I'm suprised it didn't collapse. Next year I will make him his own house so he doesn't have to share with Dad. They seemed to have artistic differences of opinion.
