{Ginger Bread Houses}

Last night our friends got together, minus Phil and Tiff, to make some ginger bread houses. It was so much fun! The girls and I anticipated that the men wouldn't participate in this but much to our surprise they did! Jake and Judd were crazy builders. I was not even aloud to touch the house until it was done. Jake had to give me the go ahead to decorate it.
Dave just kicked back and gave Kelsey compliment after compliment about how good she was doing. I had to beg Jake to tell me how amazing mine looked.
Nolan and Luke were the lucky ones that were able to just eat to their little hearts content. Nolan probably had more candy last night than he did on Halloween. It was just too much fun to stop him.
Kelsey was a babe and held Luke for most of the time. I couldn't believe how good my boys did. Luke just sat in Kelsey's lap and ate graham crackers all night. He never does that with me.
Us girls went to town on decorating. Haley didn't have much to work with since her husband made this very weird house. So she went with a grave yard theme. So funny! Her little man at the top of her house just cracks me up. Kels definitely took the contest. Her house was covered. I don't think you could even see the graham cracker on hers. Very impressive Kels!
Mine was only cool on the roof. That was my only creative spot. I did, however, use oreos to make a fence. I thought it was cute.
The whole night was a blast! We did miss Phil and Tiff. We missed hearing Phil's classic laugh and Tiffany telling us things that are far beyond our brains. The night wasn't complete without you guys!
No it is the next day and every time I walk in to the kitchen there is another piece of our house missing. I think Nolan has figured out how this thing works. Not too excited for the plane ride home tomorrow with this sugar high. But I can't wait to be in UTAH to see my family and friends. I love this time of year!!!
