CHRISTMAS COOKIE MAKIN!

Xmas

Well, it's that time of year!  Christmas cookie makin time!  Julie outdid herself to get all the ingredients and continue the family tradition of making Christmas cookies... and now with her own kids!  Warms my heart to see her carrying on the tradition!

Zane and JJ were both "amazin" at cookie "makin"!  They really got into it and worked very hard to create masterpieces!









If all else fails, just PLAY with the dough!

Voowala!

Yum, fresh out of the oven!





Time for a break....let's EAT the fruits of our labor!!!


The PERFECT Santa!  They both have the same smile!

And of course, the kids poop out and mom is left to finish the cookies!
LOOK what we DID!!!!




We were looking all over for the fruit leather "strings" that we were using to make the mouths on the Santa, Snowman, etc.  Julie said, "Look JJ just laid one across two cookies, go ahead and take it, he'll never know it's gone".  So....Nana proceeds to take it and cut off a bit and work on her current cookie.  I went to get more and looked down and it was gone.  We searched all over until we looked over at the finished cookies and JJ, with a swift and stealth motion, had taken it and placed it right back where he had put it.  Apparently we had disrupted his "creation" and he DID notice!!!

Angel?  The ghost of Christmas past????


A job well done!!!

The cookies are all packed up and ready to go home!
 A good time was had by all!

  2. Awww! I so wished we lived closer! the pictures are great! Leon would have noticed too if one of his creations were 'vandalized' as he would have put it. Whats so great about doing a blog like this is, you get to share your experiances and photos with friends and family. Love it. The kids are adorable and you and Jubees look great!! I especially like the picture of Julie leaning over the messy counter
