Christmas Countdown Day 5...Gingerbread House Party!! Vote for your favorite..

Yesterday was my 4th annual gingerbread party!  I had 8 friends attend.  Here is the house right before everyone arrived....

We did gingerbread trees this year.  And I must give thanks and credit to my 17 yr old daughter, Becca, she baked all 220 gingerbread stars and made all the royal icing. I couldn't have done the party without her!



I kept the refreshments simple.. cheese and crackers, veggies and dip, and cookies and chocolate covered pretzels.







Everyone is intensely decorating their tree...

I had an extra one because of a last minute cancellation, so Mason was very happy to make use of it!

The green and red icing failed... so the trees had to be done in just white, with some yellow...

Zach then decided that he wanted to help too...

And now the finished trees...  Please vote by telling me the number you like the best...

 1.


2. 


3. 


4. 


5. 


6. 


7. 


8. 



And here is Zach and Mason's tree... I love how he made the candy corn into candles!! 

And Becca's tree...She didn't want me to share it because she said it was horrible, but I like how she made icicles on it.. 

If you want to join the countdown, just add your blog below...



Have a lovely day, Tiff

  9. #9, that has no number but TWO names, after scrolling through countless posts on your blog to find all the names, how could I not vote for the boy's cake. But #10, should share First Place too. This is a grand idea, I haven't seen anything like it before.
