serious cookie decorating

Christmas eve was fun - erik surfed, I finished some last minute shopping and we got ready to have uncle greg, alana & tanner over. We had a nice afternoon snacking, playing horseshoes and playing with the kids. We had "fatties", a specialty of erik's family for dinner and then afterwards exchanged some gifts and decorated cookies for santa. Everyone really got into the cookie decorating - I did hear some a person or two ask kalia, "who's snowman is better?" "what about this christmas tree - isn't this one the best?".

After everyone left, kalia picked out the 3 cookies she wanted to leave for santa, the glass of milk and which cup she wanted to give him. Then she wanted 4 bowls of cheerios for the reindeer- they get very hungry! But they needed to share. The girls were asleep early, wish I could say the same for erik and I, we had work to do!
