Friday during Emmersyn's nap, Teagan and I made some cutout cookies. I had made the dough in the morning and had it in the fridge chilling until naptime. Teagan helped cut out all the cookies and even helped roll out the dough first! She was all about it! As I was making the dough, I thought it seemed like a lot of the ingredients, but since I was trying out a new recipe I just went with it. It made a TON of cookies so I decided to text some friends to see if they wanted to come over Sat to decorate!
Teagan's buddy Lucas was the only one who was able to make it, but we had fun. The kids played, ate, and decorated cookies while the adults had a little adult talk time...as much as we could with 5 kids ages 3 and under running around! I'm glad the Hamm's live so close and that our kids get along so well, especially since they are in the same class! LOL
And that evening we took the kids to the Mega Caverns to look at teh lights. Really Teagan is the only one old enough to really enjoy and remember the lights, but based on the picture you can see Emmersyn was mesmorized by the lights too!
This time of year is incredibly busy with school performances, dance performances, shopping, wrapping, family, doctors, etc, but I want to make sure my kids have memories of just us 5 doing fun family things at Christmas time!
It was alot of fun! Thanks for having us.
