My mom hosts an annual gingerbread house making afternoon for my 3 young cousins- and me. Frankly, I think she and I get more excited than the actual kids, but that's beside the point.... here is this year's Jaime and mom creation:
All the houses...
And feast your eyes on these....
@ The Ritz Boston
by the host and hostess of the holiday party I went to
Williams Sonoma sells a cute personalized gingerbread kit!

Ohmigosh you and your mom made such an amazing gingerbread house! You don't even want to know what the ones I've made in the past have looked like - let's just say they were trashed immediately!! Love the idea of an afternoon of gingerbread house making!! :)
