Catching Up In The New Year - Part 5

The 4th Annual Christmas Cookie Creations Grandma K. came over this year to help cut out the cookies. Jake was at a friend's house, so it was just the girls. Thanks so much for your help mom. I would've been up all night.

While we, of course, have the traditional Christmas cookie cutters, it seems like each year we add some interesting ones to the mix as well. This year, one of the ones we added was a cow in honor of Dayton (see previous post). We also made some gingerbread cookies as well as sugar cookies. They were delish!

Mixing, mixing, and more mixing up colors.

Saturday afternoon was when the decorating began. Here is Uncle Matt working on his airplane...how fitting. Lid...keep those fingers out of your mouth!

Whew...look at all dem cookies. Good thing we had multiple people to pass them out to.

Lydia with one of her favs.

Jake with his patriotic airplane.

Aunt Sarah Beth's fat lipped lady was cause for some giggling.

I "won" some new cookie cutters for finding the pickle on my aunt's tree in TX. Was fun to make some snowflakes this year.

Jake's brick house turned out nicely.
But this Colts cookie was his most important one. He says he is saving it for the Superbowl when the Colts win. Way to be a fan!

Mr. and Mrs. Tuey helped decorate this year! Yes, that is a foot. I told you we have some interesting choices.

Ashleigh was quite happy we saved her a few to decorate for her family. Although, this one didn't make it on the plate.
