Christmas Cookie Decorating (and eating)...

This afternoon a friend of ours hosted a Christmas Cookie Decorating Party....

WHAT was she thinking inviting tons of kids over (especially Brooke) and allowing them to delve into cookies and icing, and sprinkles, and more icing, and more sprinkles????....

Actually, it turned out to be fun for the kids and parents.

My girls really enjoyed the fun. Faith went right into decorating her cookies and made some really pretty masterpieces with her cookies....sorry no pics of them...I was too busy eating and talking and didn't get pics of them...and plus, Faith ate them as fast as she decorated them.

Brooke was a different story.

Brooke sat down with her first 2 cookies, and in a matter of seconds realized the cookies were more fun to eat than to decorate. I'm not sure she even decorated one single cookie....she ate the cookie and then began digging in fingers in the bowls of icing that were set out on the table. See....

Brooke starts off looking like she knows what she is doing....

Then she sneaks in a nibble...

Whoops, she got caught...

I'll just sneak in a finger while no one is looking...

Getting caught....again...

Finally, after about 10 cookies, she had her fill...and her clothes were covered in icing....

And here is Faith the Cookie Artist working on her cookies...

After they came out of their sugar comas, they were bathed and put to bed tonight...fortunately, with NO belly aches! yay!
