Gingerbread House Day 2010

For the past 4-5 years my girlfriends and I have gotten together to build gingerbread houses. It started with Diana wanting to build a gingerbread house one year and found a class at the Kitchen Conservatory. We all signed up and they had all the items and gingerbread made and we had 2 hours to put our house together. We decided that was not enough time and that we could do it ourselves just as well and make a day of it, and thus the tradition began. The houses have really improved over the years and Judy's husband Rob has even made us boards to put our houses on - like counter top type of boards - very nice! We were lucky to have Diana come all the way from CT to make the tradition and she brought 4th most beautiful baby in the world along for us all to meet. Baby Joseph was such a good baby and was so happy. Three of our group could not make it and they were greatly missed.

Here are a few pictures of the building stages...





And now for the final works of ART!

They all look so awesome!!! I'm having a hard time picking my favorite! I guess if I had to pick one that I like the most I'd have to go with Judy's Unibomber log Cabin.
