Each year (one or twice a year is as much as I can handle) we make sugar cookies.Dec.22 was the lucky day this season.
Here is my work crew. Amanda, Kieran , Kason and Lauren.
This is my mother-in-law's recipe. It's so good!
Isn't this dough just pretty, makes you want to snitch a piece doesn't it?
The cookies cutters are ready. I have a whole drawer of them, it is a shame they only get out twice a year!
Lauren's got the dough ready to roll.
Look at that pin spin.
Amanda took her turn as Kason anxiously waited for his.
Okay, what about the feet on the counter!! What kind of a mother an I anyway. At least the socks are clean, I think. :)
So hear they are ready to cook, run gingerboy run, oh, wait you are a sugar cookie boy, never mind.
Adding color to the frosting is another fun part. Our favorite frosting is butter cream, just a cube of butter, a dribble of vanilla and a bit of milk then powder sugar. Add more milk and powdered sugar as needed for quantity and consistency.
Here we are ready to roll, by now the children are all tired of making sugar cookies. Kieran quit at the beginning. His main goal is eating the cookies. 
Lauren and Manny did some frosting with Manny doing the most! Thanks sweetie!
Look at this cute tree with lots of sprinkle decorations. Now doesn't that just make you want to pour yourself a glass of milk and have a nice bite. Thanks for staying with me for this long blog entry. Hope you have a great day! I am glad I got a chance to use all of these fun pictures!
