Christmas Cookies

Adelyn was quite the busy baker of Christmas cookies this year. First we went down to Gran & Pop's to make Christmas Tree cookies. These were my favorite growing up and Adelyn really loved them too!


The red candies aren't part of the original recipe, but Adelyn was very precise in the placement of each one.




Once we got to KY Adelyn helped Grandpa make sugar cookies. This is a three part process and Adelyn was there for each step of the way.



Decorating is a family affair.
The most prestigious cookie to decorate is the angel. This year there were only 2 angels and Uncle Ryan and Adelyn were the chosen decorators. Please notice the precision with which Ryan is placing his sprinkles. And yes, those are tweezers.

Here's Adelyn decorating her angel. I'm not really sure why the photographer didn't capture her head, but whatever.

Aren't they pretty!
