My niece, sister, and I went to the Festival of Gingerbread at the History Museum and had fun seeing so many different things built out of gingerbread.
This scene was built with various denominations of money. For 50 cents a guess, you could guess as to how much money was built into the scene. Whoever was the closest, won the money in the scene while the money placed in the guess box went to charity.
This is one of many churches we saw.
This mansion was one of our favorites. My sister wants a life-size version of this to live in.
A smaller "cottage".
This building is a replica of a historical building in the city.
A school house.
This is my favorite...a tree house!
A cool looking cottage house.
The Washington Monument was also represented as well as ...
the Eiffel Tower
This castle was my niece's favorite...
especially since it was complete with all her favorite Disney princesses.
I thought that this igloo was cool too.
If you look through the windows of the below church, you will see a wedding occurring.
Another historical marker portrayed in food.
After walking through all those artistic displays of food, we built up an apatite and got arrested for eating parts of the exhibits. How convenient that there was a jail in the basement of the building.
We were not really arrested and we did not eat any of the displays; we just took the opportunity to goof around in the jail in the basement.

A very delightful post. I like the pictures of the jailbirds. Love, Aunt Lois
Jesse saw the pictures and kept saying they (our kids) built those....right...
These gingerbread houses are amazing!!! I've never seen such a variety. Thank you for sharing these. = )
