Christmas Eve

So we're getting close! Almost to the end of the year :)

On Christmas Eve the kids decorated cookies for Santa and then wrote him a letter. The decorating went as expected, a huge mess everywhere. But the cookies turned out great and that is all that mattered.

They spent most of the time "accidentally" getting icing on their fingers....

Then I brought out the sprinkles. Big mistake. Huge. Can you guess what happened about 3 seconds after this picture was taken? If you guessed that he dumped the entire container of green sprinkles on the cookie, then you would be correct! Sure hope Santa likes sprinkles on his cookies.

I put this pic in here because this is the face I get about 95% of the time these days. I'm waiting patiently for the day that he starts to cooperate again (which was about 4 for Miss C). Until then, this is what I get. I love it though because as I was looking through these pictures today, I had a few good laughs :)

Along the lines of funny photos, anyone care to guess what the hell he's doing in this picture? I actually don't even have an answer for that one.

The finished product

After cookies, we wrote letters to Santa

He did this all by himself. It's a picture of him with Santa. The dots on the top are snow falling down.

And here is Miss C's (again, totally done all by herself)

It says:

"Dear Santa,

I am a gud grl. I wud like a big grl scotr for cristmis. Here r sum milc and cukes for you and your rander."

Pretty good if you ask me!
