it was time once again, for the
4th Annual Triplett Gingerbread
House/Boat/Condo/Trailer Decorating Extravaganza.although our numbers were smaller this year, we were a mighty bunch.
the front of my house. i believe this will go on the market shortly.
notice the strong architectural touches, like the pirouette roman columns.
my brother and addison, 9 months, VERY serious about gingerbread real estate. he is a broker, after all.
the tools of the gingerbread house decorating trade. also known as "the goods".
sarah and asia.
christopher, making the gingerrockstar...
ginger van halen. bitchin.
the gingerbread house of doom. rachel, 6, kept whispering "BEWARE! it's the gingerbread dungeon of doom!"
yes, that is a decapitated ginger man underneath the moat.
rachel and charlie (or as rachel pronounces it "chawww-lee") hard at work on their roof.
what happens when you make 6 year olds become building contractors.
a bomb hit the building. the bomb's name was charlie.
the lovely julie next to her dream house.
this was the church. you can tell from the gumdrop cross. however, it is an inter-faith chapel, as there is also a marshmallow star of david on the back. shalom.
sarah's shingle art.
side view of my completed house, although you can't quite see the palm tree made out of sour candy, or the hanging gum drop lights.
merry christmas.

it was good, but i think it was disappointing compared to how talked up the movie was, if that makes sense. when we finally got to the ending, i was relieved--i felt like we had been waiting for that moment for the whole movie. i do love how she ditched earl though, that was fantastic. the songs throughout the movie were also especially nice to me--what an odd mix!
