Story and photos by Monty Siekerman
About 20 houses were built in Ada on Friday evening, all within a matter of hours.

That's enough to fill a subdivision. The houses, all one-story, were made by kids...gingerbread houses.

If you are looking to entertain kids with something creative, and gooey, then building gingerbread houses fits the bill.

The project was sponsored by the Ada Public Library, but held at the United Methodist Church across the street because the library itself is undergoing an addition and renovation, but not of gingerbread.
