Christmas traditions continue.....a little late!

Nana and Caleb work on a craft.

Caleb is proud of his yummy creation!



The table of cookies and drinks.  We had a good time!




Blake helping the kids with their cookies.

 My family has made old fashioned rolled out sugar cookies and decorated them as long as I can remember.  As my siblings and I have grown, the boyfirends, husbands and now grandkids have all been included in this most fun tradition.  This year was a little crazy since my parents are newly separated. But my dad was invited and did come to join in the fesitivities.  My brother Jared was home and his "friend" Nathan came too.  Megan introduced her fiance Chris to the fun as well.

Elizabeth, being too little, just enjoyed smiling and being held by all her family members.  Caleb was really into making cookies this year and even wore a tiny children's apron that my mom had.  It has been a rule that one must wear an apron while rolling out the dough!  Blake has even sported one throughout the years.  In fact, this may have been the first year he did not don one.
