My  family and I did a gingerbread house decorating chopped.  My aunt and uncle, two of their kids, my mom and dad, my brother and sister, my other aunt and I did it.

First, we were revealed our decorating ingredents:  golden grahams, mini marshmallows, and mini Charleston Chews.  In the middle of the table there was cotton candy, snow caps, gum drops, peanut m&ms, and mints.  Each team was given a bag of frosting, a piping bag, tip, and green fondant.  We were also asked a trivia question to get candy.  The person who guessed closest to the answer got first pick on a special bowl of candy.  The choices of candy were candy Christmas lights,  little colored balls, and red hots.  My team got red hots.  Then we set the timer.  We had 35 minutes to decorate.

The teams were:  1; my mom, my dad, my sister, and one of my cousins,  2; my aunt and uncle, my brother, and my other cousin, 3; me and my aunt.

 My aunt and and I made a really cool house.We had a pond, a walkway, a tree, a wreath, snow drifts, and a mailbox.  Our roof was decorated with snow caps and mini marshmallows.  Our pond was made of mini marshmallows with a mini Charleston Chew fence around it.  Our wreath was green fondant with a red hot for a berry.  Our mailbox is made from golden grahams and two mini Charleston Chews.  Our walkway was made of golden grahams.  Our tree was made of fondant and a mini Charleston Chew.  Our snow drifts and snow were vanilla cotton candy.
