Gingerbread Houses

On Sunday we were all snowed in. Not even any church. The perfect opportunity to stay in and decorate gingerbread houses! This was the first time that I have ever attempted to make gingerbread houses from scratch. The whole process takes a couple of days, especially when you are making more than one house, but the whole experience was so much fun. Home made gingerbread houses will definitely be a new tradition in the Pugmire house.

We decorated them with our 'east coast family', the Madrishin's, and some new friends of ours a young couple, the Dzado's. We put everybody's name into a hat and drew out for teams. It was fun to mix up families and see what everybody created. Scott, Kyle and I all ended up on different 'teams'. The night was super fun and everybody left on a sugar high! It was a great way to start the week leading into Christmas.
