Extreme Makeover: Gingerbread House Edition

We invited over 4 couples and their little ones for a Gingerbread House Build-off! A big thank you to my parents for allowing us to raid their home (there is a bit more room there!) . We had soup and bread bowls, then got to the build-off. It was a lot of fun, but it ended up mostly being the parents doing the building. The kids were having too much fun being together. Here are the masterpieces!...
Seaman and Smith homes
Kimball House (on the left- out back there's even a water feature :)
Hiller (a tribute to BYU) and Thomas homes (the Thomas' added a dog house complete with dog :)
To glue them together you melt sugar and then build away. I was amazed at how well it held.Smith home in the planning stage...
The kids were excited for all the candy!
