Cookies for Santa

Raelee assures me that Santa needs cookies.  I am not sure about that, but when I asked her a bit more about it, she described them;  Santa loves cookies that have designs on them.  He loves yummy cookies and he loves colorful cookies.  So we set about making them.  


Today, mommy and granny mixed the sugar cookie dough and rolled it out.  The girls took care of the rest with mommy and granny decorating too.  One said that it was perfect  family time - it sure warmed my heart.  This is what I needed... a couple cute little girls:





Making cookies...


It takes lots of cutting:




















With lots of concentration:



















From kids of all ages:





Add some creativity:











And soon you have piles of cookies for Santa:














And probably enough for his elves too!





And then, of course, you rest:





And watch your friends rest too  :-)





Soon the day is done - and it was good.  


Santa will be happy.  He might gain a few pounds like we did too!
