Elf Party

It has become a tradition for the former residents of "Motel 10" (my old apartment as it has been lovingly nicknamed) to gather during the Christmas season to watch the movie Elf and make gingerbread houses. The first year, we actually made the spaghetti with syrup, pop tarts, sprinkles, other candy, etc. like Buddy makes in the movie.



It wasn't very good, so we abandoned that part of the tradition. This year we had so much fun making the gingerbread houses that we almost forgot to watch the movie. Chris and I aren't very artistic so our gingerbread house turned into more of a mobile home/white-trash gingerbread house.



Emily & Eric and Scott & Marcelle all had much nicer, more traditional-looking gingerbread houses.




We really missed having our Kellifer here!

    I can't believe you used graham crackers instead of real gingerbread...slackers.

    Yum. Syrup. And candy covered homes. Don't get me wrong, I like our new place, but it's certainly not covered with gum drops and frosting...sad.
