This annual tradition had to take place AFTER Christmas do to the craziness but it happened none the less! Grammy pre made her cookie dough at home so the hard part was done. We had the joy of the creative part! Jack was golfing with daddy and Grampy, Uncle Jeff took Jeffry and Sidney to a movie, and Lily was taking a nap. That left mommy, Aunty, Grammy and Abby to practice their baking skills!
Here's Abby getting her instructions.
Grammy showed her all the steps.
And explained how important flour is.
And she was proud of her little student.
Trying to fit as many cookie cutters on the dough as possible-it's a fine art!
She was SO proud of herself!
Cutest lil baker I ever saw!
I was there! See!
No pics of Aunty :( She never put make-up on or showered till later in the day! She forbid them!

Part 2:
The next morning we all decorated those little golden beauties!
Sidney and Abby. In it for the long haul!
Jeffry and Jack. Lost interest after 5 or 6 cookies!
So serious!
Such concentration!
Grammy kept the frosting coming and refreshed it so it was always nice and creamy. She's a pro!
Pizza slices! Her design of course!
The finished product!
Two batches of yummy goodness! This is my absolute favorite cookie! I have to hide them so I can enjoy them for days upon days! Otherwise them men gobble them down and hardly savor each bite! However this was a new discovery for my sister so she was sneaking them left and right too!
Almost too pretty to eat! This is our tray of all stars!
Always good memories and a fun way to express our creativity! Thank you Grammy!
