Whew! It's Finished!

Yesterday was the deadline. I couldn't find the box of miniature candycanes in our Christmas stuff--another trip to Walmart (but I did it at the end of visiting teaching so it was "on the way"). Another batch of frosting (3rd or 4th--I lost count).
















I decided to go ahead and put the two parts together and finish with all the decorations. Good decision--it turned out well.
















Then Kevin held it in his lap as I drove (gently!) to the Music hall where everything is displayed.

I also waited until near the end of the time to submit them--I wanted the competition to already be displayed so I could see them.

















There were some pretty cute and imaginative displays!
Lots of good ideas if I ever feel the need to do this again. Who knows?!?

















There were TWO gingerbread trains, with gingersnap cookies for the wheels. And here I was "locked" into thinking they wanted gingerbread houses!
