Christmas Cookies

Yesterday we had the oppertunity to do a little Christmas cookie baking and decorating. It all started in the morning, when my cousin brought her sons over for me to watch while she went to the doctor. Since there were going to be 5 kids in our apartment, I thought it best to do something that would be fun, but still keep them busy at the same time. So, we decorated cookies!

I just bought some of the pre-cut cookie dough and some icing and sprinkles to decorate them with. I baked them, and then we all sat down to decorate. Here are a few pictures from the decorating....

Aiden wasn't really into decorating the cookies, he just wanted to eat them. =)

The finished products.

That same afternoon, Jenny had a friend spend the night. It was the first time she has ever had a friend spend the night, and she was very excited. So, of course, we baked more cookies! This time we did the peanut butter cookie with the chocolate Hershey Kiss center. They were a lot of fun to make, and turned out really well!

The finished product. These were so easy to make!

We are also going to make a few crafts this week and of course we'll have to bake cookies for Santa Friday night! I hope you're enjoying your week of Christmas!!
