The hardhats at Taurus are back on

As Dave says, now that you are finished with the first 80%, you need to get started on the last 80%.  This is even true for Gingerbread Houses.  Now that the initial construction and decoration has been completed, we find ourselves with even more work than we originally did.

Kevin's house side of the roof has been completed with the "lilly pads" that we saw started earlier.  Check it out.

Also featured in the picture above, is the new back deck constructed from Skittles.  Tasty.

Kevin has also been working on the front lawn.  Check out his snow drifts.  All done without the huge marshmallow mess I had.

The fencing he put on his front yard is sooooo cute.  In the picture below you can see the little heart patterns that are created with mini candy cane.

The front and back of Cailean's house has been shingled.  They look like color coordinated fish scales.  Stunning.

I love the pane windows in the back. Rumor has it that Cailean is working in some special additions with imported materials.  I am looking forward to seeing the new additions.

Sergio has been working on a Christmas light display on his house.  So very clever!  Check it out.

I can't wait to see that the other roof is going to look like.  From the materials to the left, it looks like candy corn is going to play a big role.

I have been working on landscaping the surrounding land to my little house.  Around the entire house, I have added pretzel fencing.  In the front, I have added a roaring bon fire. I hope to put my people around there.  I wouldn't want them to get too cold.  On the side, I added some mature marshmallow bushes with Christmas lights.

In the back, I had a candy cane porch.  All around, we had gotten a dusting of snow.  Being it is the bay area, I am sure that they will close the schools and we will have no work at Taurus.

Things are being to ramp up here again to get things completed.  As Kevin says, we are on a deadline.  We are all hoping to get a peek of Dawn, Debbie, and Steve's house.
