Advent Event Releases Creativity

Thursday night we had an Advent Event for the entire family. We started with homemade chicken and noodles, followed by the Nativity Story, and then set out to construct gingerbread houses. One house, at left, became a church with a steeple.

Another house acquired a roomy extension, and dormer windows in the roof.




A dream of chocolate chips on the ridge of the roof, and an inviting walkway were features of this house.








A typical south St. Louis flat was the theme of this one. An M&M walkway is surely inviting!



Who wouldn't want to visit this beauty, with warm inviting windows and those red hot garlands on the roof to guide Rudolph and his reindeer crew?


Someone has a wildly creative imagination, from the Christmas tree on the upper deck to marshmallow smoke coming out of the chimney. Even those who don't usually feel creative had a good time and good fellowship tonight.
