Gingerbread Houses
Our gingerbread houses over the last 20 years.
This is our 20th year of making Gingerbread Houses. The first one we did Joshua was only 4 years old. This one was Louisa's idea. A round city scape and I came up with the bird house topper. A few people got birdhouses at Christmas. Birdhouse was the theme for Christmas this year. I bought Melissa two bird houses, one for Rochester and one for the river house. And I bought one birdhouse for Louisa. Melissa, not knowing, bought me a large birdhouse. So I secretly decided on the birdhouse topper for the annual gingerbread house.

Haunted House
In 2008 we did a gingerbread house called the haunted house for Halloween. Turned out really well slanted roofs slanted walls and even cut outs of Mario Sabrina and Joshua standing in the graveyard of the display I found very few pictures of that gingerbread house. So far I only found two photographs. LOUISA may have more in her Google account.

Our first
Gingerbread House
Joshua was only 3 years old, almost 4, when we started our first gingerbread house. We decided to do a gingerbread house as Louisa and I discussed, neither one of our families had a Christmas tradition, and we thought it would be a good time to start one since Josh was so young.
