Gingerbread Festival in Daybreak — A New Christmas Tradition

Ivory Homes Gingerbread Festival South JordanI love the second half of December.  By the second half of the month, most of the shopping and holiday obligations are over and the fun, magical events happen.

We started a new magical tradition last year attending the Ivory Homes Gingerbread Festival in Daybreak. 

We attended last year because I was involved in the gingerbread blogger village.  But, we’ll be going back again this Saturday December 14th from 11-7 in Daybreak because we had such a ball last year and it was a fun Christmas thing to do INSIDE where it’s WARM!

Besides seeing the remarkable gingerbread houses you can:

  • VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE GINGERBREAD HOUSE
  • DECORATE SUGAR COOKIES WITH THE KIDS (DECORATIONS PROVIDED)
  • SANTA CLAUS WILL BE HERE FROM 3-6 PM
  • FREE FAMILY PHOTOS WITH SANTA
  • FESTIVE HOLIDAY REFRESHMENTS
  • FUN HOLIDAY GAMES AND PRIZES

Here’s part of the bloggers village.  Gingerbread House Utah

All your favorite local bloggers came to the event and made gingerbread houses.

And…against all odds, I won a prize for my little cottage.  I’m really not sure why? Most of the houses were clearly better than mine.  Really.  I just got lucky I guess.       Gingerbread house contest Utah

  No one was there to see my cottage, they were way more impressed by these kinds of Gingerbread Houses.

Amazing Gingerbread Houses I was totally amazed by the gingerbread house entries that I saw by folks who had entered the contest of their own free will.  They were the most AMAZING gingerbread houses I’d ever seen!

Some were modeled after some Ivory Homes, and some were more traditional.
