Christmas Cookie Time


I am home this week with the kids.  Yesterday Marcus and I decided it was time for cookies.  We made Sugar cookie dough and Gingerbread dough while the girls were at school.  When they got home we all rolled out the sugar cookies, cut them and baked them.  Today was frosting day..Marcus and I started early.

He did a great job!

When the girls got home, he showed them how it was done...they got right to work!

They each picked some colors and the decorating went into full force.  Olivia picked red!

Emma picked blue.  Marcus stuck with green, we added some yellow and purple too.  They turned out great!  We baked the gingerbread men today; the kids were impressed that none of them tried to get away :-)  However, they did sample the gingerbread men and none of them really liked them.  Emma and Olivia think once we frost them they will like them though; Marcus is not too convinced...we'll see tomorrow!
