Two days before Christmas, my mom took my sister Melissa, my best friend Rebekah, and I to see the Walla Walla Gingerbread house copetiton display at the Marcus Whitman Hotel. I absolutely loved all the little details and the hours that must have gone into these creations. I hope you enjoy them too!

This is a model of the Marcus Whitman Hotel.
I really liked the colored glass windows made out of melted candy!
I love the details on this one - check out hte picture in the window!
The Aftermath
Little shreds a sparkling
Beneath the spicy Doug;
Snips of paper scattered
Across the scarlet rug.
Boxes here, ribbons there,
Ties of mangled metal;
Small bells and colored bows
Snug in nettles settle.
The rush scarcely over -
The children all in bed
Special dishes eaten
The age-old story read
A soft candle flickers
Stars gently light the night
Babe in stable sleeping -
All is calm, all is bright.

This is a very colorful modle of the Power House Theater
That's Marylin Manroe inside!
This is the train depot.
The clear bubbly windows shows there are details inside!
This is a more realistic version of the Power House Theater.
I love the peanut-butter cup seats inside!
Silly pictures...
Which did you like the best?
