Cookie Making Time

Every year we make, bake and decorate cookies with my mom. Charlie really loves this tradition because you get to make a big mess and eat a bunch of cookies. What could get better than that! She's not too good at using the cookie cutters. She actually enjoyed putting lots of flour on the dough instead and rubbing it all around (making the first big mess).
She also enjoyed rubbing it all over herself, the chair, Molly and me too (the second big mess)
'. I'm surprised my mom lets Charlie participate! Mom, you are the best.
The girls did need a few sticker book breaks.
This was her favorite part. She loved to put sprinkles all over everything (the third big mess).
Finally, she got to eat the cookies. She had no problem eating many cookies (the fourth big mess). I think each time she decorated one she thought she better taste it. I didn't know if Molly or Charlie was going to barf first. I'm surprised we had some cookies left to take home.

I thought it would be fun to let Charlie decorate a Christmas tree made out of an ice cream cone, green frosting and sprinkles. That was definitely the fifth and last big mess of the day.




We had so much fun. Thanks Mom for everything you do. You are an amazing grandma. We love you.
