Annual Gingerbread House Making Party



For the last 4 years I have hosted not one, but two, Gingerbread House Making Parties. I love hosting this party the first weekend of December. It forces me to get all my decorating done and it gets me in the Christmas spirit.
The first party is for the Miller and the Wray families about 30 people in all. The second is for our neighborhood friends, about 30 people too!
This year we hosted the party in the garage. It worked perfectly and was less clean-up!

Here is the set up.

Skye and Izzy are working hard. These two always come up with a masterpieces. Skye is very arcitectural and Izzy is creative. Hers had an outhouse this year.

Dane is just getting started. But he looks like he is already on a sugar rush!



Grandpa Taylor helped Ian with his house.

Cute Abbey and Sam

Everyone is hard at work.




Aunty Jen and her nephew Joseph

Ian is going CrAzY eating all the candy instead of putting it on his house.


Granpa Skip and Riley working hard



Hannah did a great job designing her house very symmetrically.


A good lookin' group here (except Adam's lazy eyes)!


We tried a Miller grandkid picture. Mine didn't work too well.


We also did a Miller sibling picture. I don't know why Dustin is trying to choke me. Who could hurt that angel face?


This is a really fun tradition to start. I can't wait until next year!
