Merry Christmas! One of our other traditions of the holiday season is baking and decorating sugar cookies. The year this picture was taken, we made SO many! We had enough to give some to our mail carrier, the trash guys, the firemen down the street, and various friends in the neighborhood. This year the cookiesContinue reading “Christmas Cookies”
