Christmas Cookies

12.21-12.23.2011

After much debate, I decided we better make Christmas cookies this year.  I know how much time they take to make, and it quickly became a three day project...hence the debate.  But Hallie thought it was a lot of fun.

Day 1: Making the dough

 Day 2: Rolling the dough out, cutting them out, aand baking.


Day 3: Decorating

All this cookie-ness wore our Little Miss right out!

Oops! Hallie didn't quite understand that we just wanted a few sprinkles on top.  So while I was not paying as close of attention as I should have been we had a cookie with half of a bottle of colored sugar on it.

Our decorated cookies.  Hallie was very sweet and decorated cookies especially for certain people.  Including Grandma & Grandma, Grandma Great (Peterson), Karen, and Grandpa Great (Adams).
 Neither Eric or I are big fans of frosting, so I did a few with orange glaze instead, and they were delicious!  I would much rather that on a cookie than frosting!
And after all of this we wrapped the cookies up, and delivered them.  (Because heaven knows we don't need 4 dozen sugar cookies to ourselves!)
