cookie time

jenn was still in town after our visit with santa on monday, so on tuesday we all decided to get together and make cookies. mom made the dough for sugar cookies and gingerbread cookies the day before so that we could just go over and cut them out and decorate them.
mom ended up waking up tuesday morning with the same stomach virus i had a week earlier so we all decided to get the job done so she had one less thing to worry about. justin was out shopping for jessica while jessica joined in the fun as well. dave had stayed home from work so he was able to keep talan at home with him.
hayden has always loved decorating the sugar cookies with sprinkles and this year he had fun decorating a few with icing as well.
rainah also got in on some of the fun with the sprinkles, although i believe more sprinkles ended up on the floor than the cookies due to her. but she had fun.
the cookies turned out great and we can't wait for christmas eve so we can dive into them!

the gingerbread cookies made a terrible sticky mess. good thing i let jess and jenn handle it:



and the gingerbread cookies are finally done:
