Now THAT'S a Gingerbread house!

When my sister-in-law (many of you know Dawn) told me she was entering the Gingerbread Festival at Thanksgiving Point this year, my first thought was, "Oh how fun! I should do that one of these years." I didn't realize just how hysterical that thought was until I saw what she created. I really had no idea just how amazing (and BIG) it would turn out. The store windows really light up and even the little cakes stands are edible! Doesn't it make you happy?

The winner of the festival was a beautiful replica of the Salt Lake Temple. It was amazing, BUT SERIOUSLY PEOPLE, where would Hansel and Gretel stop if they were hungry??!!!!

I protest.

With all due respect to the Temple replica, I am with Susan.

The windows in this thing actually LIT UP. With REAL LIGHTS. Which was nice, because then you could better see details like the HAND CRAFTED EDIBLE MINIATURE CAKE STAND.

WOW! She is very creative. I have a hard time with the little gingerbread houses that come in the box that you just have to ice together.

Jane tell Dawn from me that she is an AMAZING cake (Gingerbread house) creator. I really think she should open a business. Sharon's having a birthday in February I will hire her to do the cake;)

Oh my hell, I didn't know anyone could make that nice and cutesy a gingerbread house. I make those cheap kits from the grocery store with my kids, and they turn out hideous! White goop everywhere, sides caving in, kids eating the candy off the roof because they won't stick on... When does she find time for gingerbread houses?

You are fabulous, and look fabulous, by the way! Merry Christmas!
