Gingerbread Party

Our friends Gina and Cody Ballard held their 2nd annual Gingerbread house party for family home evening. We went and had a great time. There were a ton of people there, some just to have fun and some with a healthy spirit of competition (John). John came up with our most ingenious idea of something truly southern: a trailer home. While we tried to make it very back-woodsy with a wood-pile, some old tires, and scrap metal on the side, I think it turned out very cute, homey, and inviting. John's favorite part is the satellite dish on top.
