Cookies and Snowflakes

We had a busy day today! Started with Mommy getting ANOTHER shot in her foot, but that's another story. After visiting my doctor, Gregory got his hair cut and notice the fancy blue color?! Kim wanted to spray it red and green for Christmas, but Gregory wanted blue. (He's going for the super hero look)
Pretty sharp, eh?
Here we are making thumbprint cookies and snowballs ~ basically the same recipe, so we did 1/2 and 1/2


Kids decorating the spritz cookies
Aren't they beautiful?? They didn't cook up that way though
Now it was snickerdoodles! We also made chocolate crinkles, chocolate chip and sugar cookies earlier in the month. I've got two bricks of shortbread in the freezer waiting to be baked, but I'm taking a break. We'll dip them in chocolate after they cool. Think they'll taste like Daddy's favorites? Well, they are all vegan so we can all enjoy them as we celebrate the Christmas season!
After a little cleanup we made some snowflakes for the window
Stuck them on contact paper and added some glitter (or lots of glitter!)
They each made three snowflakes to hang. I'll have to take another photo when it isn't so sunny, but it is looking very festive :)
What are we at now? 5 more days...
