gingerbread houses!

finals are over for me as of 2 hours ago. yay! now i can post something. a couple weeks ago we all got together and decorated gingerbread houses at josh and abbie's. it was so much fun! everyone's were so different. our's stands out quite a bit, it's the most colorful one... i won't tell you what everyone was saying about ours, but you can guess from looking at the pictures. i think sean won the prize for most creativity. their roof collapsed, so he made it look like santa's fault! i was very impressed with his improvising skills! i probably would've just been sad it fell apart and gave up. i've never decorated one before, and i loved it! now i want to start our own tradition. we are so glad we have so many good friends from school. they're our arizona family! thanks again for having us over josh and abbie! here are a few pics:

I agree...your bangs are way cute. And I am very impressed with your 'colorful' gingerbread house. They all turned out so well. I agree, I think that would be a fun tradition to start.
