A couple of weeks ago we had a little party to kick off the holiday season. Sara, Frank, Luke and Alli came over for dinner, gingerbread houses (or buildings of some kind), and a movie.

Joey and I switched the living room furniture with the dining room furniture in order to watch our movie, "movie theater style".


The process begins...

Alli may have had a tough start but we helped her through it:-) Her mistake in her construction may or may not be due to her beverage.

Sara's theory was to use as much frosting as possible... oh yeah, and all of the tips she picked up on Cake Boss.
Luke was not the only one that had issues with the decorating bags.

Here are our finished "buildings". I will include some highlights but I want to see if anyone can match the "building" to its artist.

#1 This "building" was once a quaint little cottage with an adorable spotted roof...it just did not want to stay standing! No problem though....they turned it into....a....hmmm....
#2 Details, details, details! If you look closely, you can see Rudolph and a snowman. Very precise work!

#3 Well..... this one speaks for itself.

#4 This house features a stucco roof and intricate path leading to its lavish backyard.
#5 This house includes a wreath, two Hershey Kissed trees, and a pile of snowballs ready to throw!

#6 This was described as the one and only solar powered gingerbread church. I think that's all that needs to be said about this masterpiece.
