Belated Tidings of Gingerbread

So, I was going along my day and thinking "Man, it's been a while since I wrote anything in my blog". However, I don't have enough pics yet of my little students to give you. *sigh* Thus, I was stuck. I wanted to give you all something. What though???

Aha!

It hit me.

I hadn't shown any of you the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners in our annual Gingerbread House Contest. We, and some family friends, started this....5? 6 years ago? I forget. But we kept it up. So, here's last year's (2016) winners.

(there actually was a tie between two for third place, but I didn't get a pic of the other one)

3rd Place

Hanzel and Gretel

The Witch's House
