My mom has started a tradition to have the grandkids who are close by at the time to come to her home on a Saturday near Christmas, and decorate their own gingerbread houses. Last Saturday was the great day! Our table was full of candy, frosting and amazingly decorated gingerbread houses. The homes were similar to snowflakes where no 2 were alike. I felt like the homes brought out a bit of their unique personalities as well... Unfortunately I wasn't able to get everyone's finished home with their picture at the end. Enjoy the one's I was able to finagle :)
