I thought I'd show some pictures from our visit to the Grove Park Inn to see the Gingerbread Houses since so many of you were interested! It was such a wonderful "girls day"!! My girls, Mom, Sister & I all went shopping in the village by the Biltmore and then to the Grove Park Inn for tea and cake and seeing the Gingerbread Houses. We had a great time together :)!
The 1st pic above was taken on the lovely terrace out back. It was a cloudy day, but you can see the Blue Ridge Mountains in the background -- what a view! The other pics are all of the Gingerbread House competition. These were incredible! Some are very different from the traditional gingerbread house that I would normally think of. But the creativity was amazing, and it was truly worth seeing!!
And just so y'all know, I am working on my sunroom makeover!!! Hopefully I'll have pics soon :)!
What a wonderful Girls Day Out! I can't wait until my daughter is old enough to enjoy this with me! And I bet your girls loved looking at those gingerbread houses!

Hi Stacy,
ReplyDeleteI took my girls to the Grove Park Inn a few years ago and had the best time. So many great photo opps, especially in front of the huge fireplaces.
Happy New Year to you and your family.
Blessings,
Heidi
Are your girls twins? I have twins and was wondering if they were as well...they really look like twins!
ReplyDeleteThe Ginger bread houses are really beautiful! What great memories!
