Bethany, Elinor, and Faith went ahead with their Christmas party/gingerbread competition tradition. They did limit their numbers more than they would have in a non-COVID time--they each only invited three friends. Also, for whatever it's worth, they had all three been tested very recently and were negative. I guess we all have to make choices about what kind of risk we're comfortable with. We were comfortable with this and they had so much fun.
Team Faith-- Braxton, Faith, and Brinnli
Team Elinor-- Savannah, Enoch, Elinor, and Tyler. I like Elinor and Tyler's handmade ugly Christmas sweaters.
Team Bethany-- Jeremiah, Bethany, Jacob, Victoria and Victoria's little sister:)
The theme this year was "All I Want For Christmas" and Elinor's team built a set of dentures missing the two front teeth (so clever!) out of twizzlers and marshmallows.
They also built a solid tower with absolutely no meaning whatsoever. Their team won the "Most Disturbing" award.
Faith's team went with a jail break, "All I Want For Christmas" is to get out of jail idea. They won "Best Use of Theme".
Bethany's team were in fine creative form-- a classic homey Christmas scene with a tootsie roll man tied up in twizzlers under the Christmas tree.
Our wonderful, good-sport neighbors-- the Robinsons and Camerons came over to be our judges.
The choices from left to right-- Bethany, Faith, Elinor.
These were perhaps our most thorough, systematic judges. They didn't miss anything
This is a favorite Christmas tradition that Clark and Bethany started and I hope it continues through all the kids. They entertain me.
