2011 Gingerbread Houses

Usually I buy the big gingerbread house kit. It comes with one big house and all 3 kids try to take a turn and make it how they want it. Not always a happy time. So this year, I saw a kit at Target with 4 small buildings and thought it would work out much better. They each got their own pieces to build with and decorate however they wanted. And when Elli's dropped on the floor, we even had an extra house for her to start over with. But, it quickly turned into a competition and Dad was going to choose the best one.
"I'm going to put coconut on MY roof so it will look like snow."
"I'm going put a big driveway on MINE."
"I'M going to put on all the candy I can!"
Adam won best roof, Elli won best driveway and Amy got the award for most candy. Smart judge.
