Early Christmas


This is a side glimpse of the biggest gingerbread house I have ever seen. The entire house is made from "real" stuff. It sits in the lobby of the Ritz Carlton in Naples, Florida, and it was the backdrop of a fun day for our girl.


Christmas came early for Annie. Her favorite friends surprised her yesterday.


They made a special trip...drove across the entire state...to Naples, just to spend time with her, and take her to lunch.

She was over the moon!

You can see the size of the house in this pic when you see it next to the huge entrance doors.  




Inside there is a fireplace and a sled ready by the door. 


Outside it is all about the candy.


We tried to count all the different types of candy that cover the door. 


And we were amazed at the list of ingredients!



Gingerbread houses and very special friends...a wonderful way to start the month of December!

*****************************

The month of November is a blur to me. We had so much going on I had little time to blog or visit. I hope to be back with my December window very soon. 

Hope you are all enjoying the magic of the season!

Enjoy the day,
Robyn

  9. I never knew that it was possible to built such a large gingerbread house. Annie is such a lucky girl. This is just amazing. I an't imagine the preparation to create such a masterpiece. iI have created small gingerbread house and found them a lot of work, lol.
    Stay safe.
