It's not Christmas till the Cookies

 The kids had the entire week before Christmas off of school.  It was nice.  Sort of.  I was not feeling well for half of it.  But we did manage to make gingerbread cookies!  These kids are awesome.  They don't just slap a little frosting on.... no, each cookie must be a masterpiece. We did use a lot of frosting.  But they had a marvelous time and made some amazing cookies.

Delaney worked very hard.

Marian was disgusted that I only had these sprinkles to use for decorating.  So she got creative. 

My sweet Rylee. 

 Callie worked diligently.  

Even Josh got in on the action. 

He produced this masterpiece and then ate it. 

Delaney was particularly proud of this "Patrick SeaStar". 

Some of their delightful creations.  (Apparently oreos can be used for a wide array of decorating purposes!) 

Even Percy wanted to help. 

But he wasn't much help.
