Christmas Cookies

We have a little tradition of each kid choosing a Christmas treat to make with me in the kitchen.  Each kiddo has kind of "claimed" a cookie as their own to be in charge of making...which has been fun.  Noah is the master of Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies~ perfection!

 (When the boys are cooking, this is how they like to store the oven mits~ for easy accessibility, I'm guessing?  It brings a laugh, anyway!)

Tansy made Pretzel Buttons, which were just right for her.  She loved placing pretzels on the tray, unwrapping chocolate kisses and putting them on top of the pretzels, then gently pressing m&ms into the melty kisses.

She was so proud of her treats when they were done!!

Dahlia made Snow on the Mountains...her favorite.

Phil wanted to make a treat, too...He used fresh eggs from our chickens to make eggnog! I have never been an eggnog drinker, but THIS was yum.  Really so much better than the store variety.

Josiah made spritz cookies and Lily made sugar cut out cookies...but they were eaten before I remembered to take pictures.  Cookies sure go fast around here!
