Christmas Magic

Riley and I made some cookies together last week and we both had a blast! I bought the kind that you just punch out the shapes and he helped place them on the cookie sheet (didn't get any pics of that cuz battery was out), then after they were baked we decorated with icing. Icing is the best 'paint', cuz you can just like it off your fingers!

Here are some pictures another 'magical' time we had together!




Starting to decorate

Proud of his 'creation'


He could not wait for a bite, kept asking, but did really well waiting


Yummy icing!



Our final 'products' - mine are on the right and his are on the left, in case you were wondering! *wink* And there are a couple on his plate that I 'helped' with!



The edible aftermath!
Have I mentioned how much FUN I am having this holiday season!?!? I cannot stress enough - although most of you are lucky enough to already know from first hand experience - how amazing, special, miraculous, magical, wonderful and blessed it feels to be spending this time with my son. I feel like the luckiest person alive...I can only hope he knows.

We did our cookies the other day too. I just haven't had time to blog! Yours look much better than mine! Jackson didn't really want to help he just wanted to eat! Typical boy! They grow up so fast!
