Christmas Cookies and Christmas Eve

Jansen and I have tried to make Christmas cookies for the last few years and we almost ran out of time this year but made them on Christmas Eve. We had so much fun rolling out the dough, using the cookie cutters and decorating them. I let Jansen eat a few but we had to make sure we left a couple for Santa!

Me and my little baker!

Jansen getting pretty good at using the rolling pin to roll out the dough.

Jack, Jansen, and I on Christmas Eve. We really didn't have any plans for that night so we decided to invite our friends Marilyn, Rachel, and Brittany over for dinner. We grilled steaks and had baked potatoes and if I must say so it was sooo yummy! We might have found us a new tradition to start on Christmas Eve every year!


Marilyn and her girls. We ate dinner, visited, and played Apples to Apples, a fun game! We then got ready for bed so Santa could come visit J!
