Christmas cookies

Of course every Christmas we bake cookies. Today in the midst of "school snow days" we kept busy trying out a new cookie punch with our sugar cookies.

Kaitlin just loves getting her hands messy! I have to stop and try to have patience while letting her knead the dough and roll it out. I just want to take over and do it myself, but baking forces me to let go of the control of making "perfect" cookies. Kortney and Dawson really like to help too. Everyone wants to play in the dough and flour!
Punching out circle cookies with snowmen, Christmas trees, and snowflakes embossed pictures on them.

Dawson's turn rolling.


And Kortney's.








Decorating the designs.




Ready for the oven...doesn't he look proud!






The final product!
