Making cookies! We also read Christmas stories, but we forgot to take pictures during that brief time of peace and quiet. But making cookies was much more exciting!!!
The mixing is always fun. Alex loves to cook with me and she is now a pro at cracking the eggs. She stirs for the first ten second, til the flower starts to make the dough thick, then, while wiping her brow she turns it over to me. Thanks.
The rolling! This one Alex can and will do from start to finish! We had some thin and crispy ones, but good thing Santa LOVES ALL COOKIES!
Well, we are having a great time, especially Gabe, who at this point has become interested in what is happening, which always turns the excitement up a notch.
The final product! It was lots of fun, we had some great cookies. And by the look of the crumbs the next morning, Santa REALLY enjoyed them! And, all of our carrots were gone too, which means the reindeer didn't go hungry!
