Wow, the Gingerbread Jubilee was a fantastic success! The first year we made one house and it was hard for everyone to crowd around. The second year we made two houses which worked quite well until one house collapsed. This year we made three houses, baked them until they were rock hard, and the party was a smashing success!
We had 15 people working on three houses, creating completely different masterpieces from the American-style sprawling mansion with an in-ground pool (with diving board), Coca-Cola plantation and satellite TV, to the luxurious home with a private slalom course and ice-skating rink, to the European villa with an EU flag, sleigh full of gifts, and balcony overlooking the enchanted forest.
So now it's your turn! Check out the three houses (front, back, sides and close-up shots of important details) and vote in the comments! The winning house will be prominently displayed on next year's invitation.

Tough choice!!!
I must say though that number three is my favorite.
wish i was there :(
looks like you all had fun
After carefully viewing each picture the following has been decided by the panel:
House # 1.
Great attention to detail, nice touch with the satelite dish and the swimming pool. Good use of various snacks and shapes to complete the look. A for effort, however who really has a pool bigger than their house?
House # 2:
Also nice attention to detail, I like the smoke coming out of the chimney, very authentic, a little cluttered for my taste, too much use of one type of candy, nice touch on the branches of the tree though.
House # 3:
Very sporadic, nice idea with the ski slope, but perhaps he could have been skiing off his roof? lots going on, heavy emphasis on a few candy varieties.
Over all House number 1 has my vote, with number 2 a close second.
We wish we could have been there making G-houses with you all!
Our vote goes to House #1!
#1 has a satelite dish... how can you not vote for that! it was a very tough decision though... they were all great!
Merry Christmas!
Numba two... numba two... numba 2...
Wow, tough decision... so much attention to detail. I have to say, number 1 gets my vote.. an inground pool... very original to say the least! Looks like a fun party I was sad to miss.
