Christmas cookies

This weekend we made our christmas cutout cookies. It was messy as usual, but fun for all.


Rolling and cutting out the dough. Quincy did get to try this, one try. Then he got to watch and play with the cookie cutters.


Then came the decorating. Both boys got to decorate the cookies. Here is a picture when they are doing their first cookies. See how clean it is.


Quincy quickly realized how yummy the frosting was.


He was good though and mostly tried to frost the cookies.


Some family frosting fun:



And Miles putting entirely too much frosting on a cookie:


Quincy was made to take a break from decorating:


Here is one of Miles's decorating jobs. There is actually a cookie under this pile of frosting and sprinkles:
Here it is:

You can see the candy cane outline in the frosting still left on the placemat:

Quincy got another cookie to decorate, but I looked away for a moment and turned back to this:
In his defense, he was still decorating, he put a bit of frosting on before each bite.

gee that looked a little like Gramma M's kitchen this weekend after Maddie came to make cookies, chocolate covered pretzels and candies. I have some more chocolate for you boys when you come to visit -so more sprinkles
Love Gramma M
