Gingerbread Party

Tessie and Katherine held their annual Gingerbread Party tonight.  They squeezed over twenty people in their house for a gingerbread making extravaganza!  There were gingerbread firetrucks, boats, and teepees.  We had a judging contest after everyone was finished and Alex won best overall!  Alex made a gingerbread Notre Dame and I made a pirate ship :)  Lisa and Samantha drove over from Chapel Hill, Aki came from Boone and Kaylyn from UNC-C.
  
 Creating gingerbread masterpieces!
  
 Alex the architect
  
 Kaylyn used an intermittent cooling technique in the fridge.

 Ahoy mate!  My pirate ship had a plank for the naughty Sour Patch Kid to jump from.
   
 Eye patch
   
 This is supposed to be a mermaid figurehead: half Swedish Fish, half Sour Patch Kid.  Nailed it :)
   
 This guy had real fire coming out of his chimney!
  
 This was an awesome teepee!
  
 Alex's Notre Dame!  He made stained glass windows out of Smarties and had gargoyles out back!
    
Lisa made the UNC Bell Tower and Samantha made a log cabin.
   
  
 Our table!
