Gingerbread Houses

Every year, the Sage Mountain Grill hosts a gingerbread house challenge and invites the elementary school to participate. Each of the kids bring in bags of candies to use on the houses and the Sage brings down a huge bucket of icing. They use graham crackers and icing around milk cartons for their houses and they can decorate however they want.

I spent the day at the school helping the kids with their masterpieces. Let me tell you, this is a messy experience, but the kids love it! It was really fun to see how creative the kids can be! Here is Treven's finished house. I really think he should have taken first place, but I'm just the mom!
