Mom had the brilliant idea a few weeks ago to invite a couple of families over to sing carols and eat cookies together! We had the Maxwell's and Gaskill's over plus two sets of visiting grandparents. Dad & I played our guitars (with a little bit of ukulele from Dad & Caleb), but we have quite musical friends, so at times there was some trombone, clarinet & flute going on as well! It was a great night & I think everyone had a blast!
Mom got a kit of cookie cutters that are star shapes of all different sizes to make a tree. She & Caleb worked together to make the dough and put together the tree.

Another exciting part about the night was that we had a total of 18 people and we had chairs for everyone!! :-)
And now onto the cookies!!

The "kids corner" was very loud & full of laughter...
Except for one member who was tuckered out...
Mom has the same cookie cutters and she makes them every year for all her grandkids! My kids look forward to it every year! We use two cookies of each size staggered and it makes a taller tree. They look so nice and are so yummy!!!

ReplyDeleteMore great pictures, love the cookie tree.
It was really neat to see you and your family on Skype at Church today.
Merry Christmas and enjoy your weather.
