Christmas cookies...yes Christmas

I am almost a full year behind in blogging.  If I don't start somewhere it will never happen so here I go.  For the 2 people that probably see this blog, sorry it is so outdated but since this is my only form of family documentation, my kids will still like it.

 

 Every Christmas we try to sit down and decorate Christmas cookies.  They aren't pretty and half the family doesn't even like them but we always have lots of laughs (from almost everyone) and we see how artistically challenged we truly are.

I should have taken some close-ups of the finished products.  Justin probably had the most creative.  It is always a fun memory.   Don't worry, we wouldn't dare deliver them to anyone...I'm sure the knives are licked multip

Miss Eliza is growing up

Eliza has hit the make-up stage.  She loves make-up and more importantly putting it on by herself.  We were racing to church one morning and she came waltzing down the stairs all ready to go.  I wiped off as much as I could get away with.  She was crushed that I wouldn't let her keep it all on.  She makes me laugh all the time.
