"Making" Christmas Cookies

This was cookie baking weekend at our house. We went and bought extra of all the essentials (flour, sugar, butter, powdered sugar, etc.) on Saturday morning and have worked in short bursts. We have made 3 kinds of cookies so far (or at least started them).  Saturday we made the sugar cookie dough and chilled it, and finally on Sunday (today) we cut them out and baked them. Frosting them will come maybe tomorrow. Abby was a BIG help. As you can tell from the pictures, she got flour everywhere! (including on her mouth, hmmmm, I wonder how it got there?)




After we finished, Abby was in charge of washing the cookie cutters.  I think I remember that she did that last year too.  I feared we made glue by the time she was done, because of the mixture of a lot of flour and water on her dress.  It will wash.  She had a great time and did her job well with a smile.  We are building memories.

Papaw is a little disappointed the mess doesn't look nearly as widespread as it should be. Good job Abb's!!
