Grover Annual Gingerbread Contest

So we have started a new tradition in the groovin Grover family. We have a gingerbread contest against brothers and sisters. Last year I won everyone of course... and this year of course I won again! j/k last year I actually didn't win, Jandy did and Todd came in second.... I came in 2nd to last... Kaden was last.... Anyway.. I was pretty upset about that so I was totally going to redeem myself this year and make the coolest barn in the world. I made the gingerbread from scratch and everything (unlike my brothers and sisters who buy theirs from walmart) after I pulled out the gingerbread from the oven I sat it out too cool and the dogs ate it!!!! NOOOOO anyway so I had to work with scraps. You would think that because I only had scraps I would have lost this year but actually I totally won!

This year we didn't have a judge because no one wanted to do it! Everyone we asked said no because they were afraid that if they don't pick the right winner that we would not like them anymore so we don't know who won. HOwever...... I decided to appoint myself as the judge this year since nobody stepped up to the line. SO.. i would like to announce the winners... ME first place, Todd second. tie between Heidi and Jandy for 3rd and then pretty much adam kayla and kaden tie for last place.. sorrry ;) Congratulations to me!!

And here we have the grand prize winner... Danielle Grace Grover Sherman!!! 1st place gingerbread winner for 2010 Grover contest!! the crowd goes wild. I mean look at that piece of art. It is my finest work yet. To start the gingerbread it is homemade with the finest ingredients fresh an delicious. THe roof what an amazing idea to use such fine detail. And then in front with icicles what an original idea and then the little animal cookies stowed away in the manger wow! then to top it off i used a little wagon upfront. This is going to be hard to ever top off . probably it will go down as the Grovers finest gingerbread house ever! 1st place forever!

Whoops I accidently posted this picture Ryker sometimes takes the camera and takes pictures of himself and then...
Cant wait for next years contest so that I can win again.. It was fun family and hopefully one day someone will be able to beat me.
