Gingerbread House Party at the Grubbs!

It is that time of year again!! Time for the Grubbs annual Gingerbread House decorating party. We look forward to this every year. Kent (and some friends) make the houses out of wood because being here in Okinawa gingerbread doesn't work too well. ;-) We ice them up and decorate the houses with many different kinds of candy that everyone brings to share. The kids (and adults) have so much fun doing this! Tritia cooks up some yummy chili while everyone decorates and visits. This year the rain decided to join us so we had to move the festivities in the house....hope the carpet didn't get too wrecked Grubbs! ;-P
As you can see below AJ loved the icing part, and was trying to stuff as much candy as he could in his mouth before mom and dad noticed. But being his birthday, we were pretty easy on him...As always check out Tritia's blog for more pictures. She always takes up my slack when it comes to picture taking.



The houses ready and waiting to be iced and decorated.
Jason and Jackson starting the process...Jackson stuffing Twizzlers in his mouth before we caught him. As you can see this was not a clean project!Liz, Mason and Willow working hard at their house.


And here's Michelle and Molly starting on their house.
The completed house! Jackson was a big help as you can see...;-) I had to get a picture of precious baby Milo. Isn't he ADORABLE!?!
