Christmas Cookies 2013

Today Grandma & Grandpa decided they wanted to start a new tradition. They had both of their grandson's come over and decorate Christmas cookies! The boys had so much fun!


When we got there Grandma already had most of the cookies baked. She had Sugar cookies, Persimmon cookies, Gingerbread men, and Snicker Doodles ( Daddy's favorite!). We got there a little early and K got to use the cookie gun to make some Christmas tree cookies:


 
He loved it! He made Christmas Tree & Snow Flake cookies.
                                                 
We sat the boys down at the kitchen table with frosting, sprinkles, and candy to decorate the sugar cookies Grandma baked. And that's when the fun began:




I think there was more candy going into K's mouth then onto his cookie :)






 
Grandma made a Gingerbread man for each member of the family.
Here is K's decorated Gingerbread man:



 
There were a lot of accidents with sprinkles. Those sprinkles came poring out instead of sprinkling out:)


 
Again, more went into the mouth then on the cookie.


 
He can't stop munching long enough to smile for a picture.


We put the cookies into Christmas boxes to dry and keep safe.
Here are K's decorated cookies.

K's buddy Topher stopped by with his Mommy & Daddy to bring K a Christmas present. I let K open his present because he was so excited!


Oh my gosh, he got the cutest Christmas ornaments! Is it weird that I almost wanted to start crying I thought they were so cute! Topher made him two Christmas ornaments. The first one was a picture of Topher & Santa in a pom pom Christmas wreath.  The second ornament had two sides, one side was a picture of K and his 3 best buddies playing together. The second side was a picture of K & Topher! They were so stinking cute! 


They are so cute! I love these, what a GREAT idea! Now, we can put them up on our tree every year and see how much the boys have grown.
 
Here is a little video clip from Christmas cookie decorating today:
 
We had so much fun today! Thank you Grandma & Grandpa for starting this new tradition!
