Making Sugar Cookies

We have made it a tradition to make sugar cookies with the girls during the Christmas Season. They have so much fun making the cookies and decorating them. Amber was the only one this year that had anything to do with making the dough (and that was short lived). The older girls were to busy making bracelets! They are addicted to their bracelet making!

Leah and Thea have become much more precise in their decorating skills! It is so much fun watching the progression from just slapping on the frosting and sprinkles to actually trying to decorate the cookies with accuracy. I was surprised at the care Amber took in decorating her cookies. She must be learning by watching the older girls! All the girls had beautiful cookies and messy faces when the process was complete! Amber, of course, had the messiest face, but she also decided to use the frosting as face paint when she was playing at the end! Oh my crazy girl!
