Annual Cookie Day

Every year my mom hosts an annual Cookie Day. We all get together, baked Christmas sugar cutouts and then decorate. This year, we shortened the process and only did decorating. The kids get un-interested pretty quickly :) The gang---Sheryl, Becki, Kitty, Great Meme, Courtney, Izi, Gabi, and Alison

The ladies....enjoying a warm and fuzzy hot chocolate!

My mom also purchased a gingerbread house kit this year....as you can tell from the pic...did not go well. Yes, we are holding it together with large cans, the icing is running, and the candy isn't sticking. Next year we are forgoing the icing and using epoxy glue...it just might stay together that way! Izi and Ali were real troopers though and were big helpers!!!

I always LOVE this day and look forward to it every year. Thank you Mom for hosting!
