This year we started a new tradition... an annual gingerbread house contest! We invited our friends Connie Nowlan, and her children Blare, Brooke, and Brady. The kids had a lot of fun and we are already thinking of ways to improve it next year.

Enjoy these pictures of the icing, decorating, and helping each other create Gingerbread houses. It was hilarious to catch them sneaking a bite of candy, even Lewis got caught with his hand in the candy pile! Brooke won an award for the "neatest", Blare & Montana for the "best teamwork", Dakota for the "most icing", and everyone had fun! Afterward the houses were decorated with care, we gathered around the table for dinner. Pizza! It was a fun night for all!
