Sugar Cookies

After our last busy day of Christmas shopping (we did our Costco shopping for Christmas dinner... wow, was that ever a crazy mess!) we came home for some star shaped peanut butter sandwiches by the fire.  Connor loves having tea parties at his little table now.  In fact one night we ate dinner at his little table next to the fire place... just for fun.

 Lauren flew to Longview to spend a week with her parents and friends.  She gave Connor his gift before she left.
 Lightning McQueen and Mater for the tub!
 Cookie baking time!
 We attempted to roll out sugar cookie dough and stamp out shapes, but the dough was too sticky and we couldn't get the right consistency for it to work.  I guess that's what happens when you cheat and buy the box mix.  Oops!
 So, while Connor took his nap I cooked the dough into round cookies.  He was excited to decorate the cookies when he woke up.
 each cookie got just the right amount of sprinkles

 our Christmas goodies this year... I made reindeer sugar cookies, Connor's sprinkle sugar cookies, hey stacks, and Jason's favorite (his mom's specialty) Yummy Gooey Bars.
 Mmmmm!
