Baking Cookies

We finally got around to baking sugar cookies tonight.  We made three batches and have waaaaay too many cookies.  We haven't even frosted over half of them.  They all had fun and while they worked on cutting out cookies I made four batches of Muddy Buddies for the neighbors.  Tis the season for sweets!

 



And here is the song we sing each night when we light the Advent wreath-



Light one candle for hope,
One bright candle for hope,
He brings hope to every heart,
He comes!  He comes!

And so on for peace, joy and love.  :)

And since none of especially like gingerbread, we used sugar cookie dough to make our gingerbread man.  A friend of mine sent me The Gingerbread Boy book, the pan and a decorating kit for Christmas!  So sweet!
