It was a gingerbread extravaganza!
Steven had a log tower, a pretzel fence and some window boxes.
My nephew Colin's house had a tootsie roll mailbox and an awesome "Christmas tree".
My brother Michael started the mailbox trend and put some gargoyles on his roof.
My nephew Declan had a backyard ice rink, gummy worm curbs, Oreo siding, Starburst and Smartie roof tiles and if you look very carefully, a family of gummy bears living inside.
My niece Riley got banished from the candy table before she got to the front because she was eating way more candy than she was putting on her house, but her roof still looks fabulous and pink.
My sister in law Annie's house had a gorgeous roof and french doors in the back.
And I decided to live out my farm owning fantasy in gingerbread. Barn complete with weather vane.

Wow! How awesome - they all look fantastic. I love your barn - you sure do have the gingerbread house making skills!
I have never made a gingerbread house! If you have five minutes, and you haven't seen this yet, you should check it out. These gingerbread houses are AMAZING. In fact, I wanna live in the last one. http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/unbelievable-gingerbread-houses-12473432
i have to admit... i've never made a gingerbread house before. these totally look semi-professional. nice!
These are pretty amazing! I love the log tower and this is such a fun idea. I think the best part of the holidays are the traditions and the time you get to spend with family and friends. I might have to steal your idea next year :)
Ah! These are so great. I love yours especially. The barn is fantastic.
Thanks for visiting my blog. You have such a pretty blog also. And those pictures look so yummy. I've never made a gingerbread house, but maybe next year.

Love the vegetable garden & the weather vane!

I just love your barn and the vegetable garden and the piles of hay. Abigail, it's so perfect and so you. These are all really impressive -- it's wonderful you ended up with a little gingerbread village.
