Christmas Eve 2007, Part One: Baking Cookies at Mimi's
Oh yeah, people. I'm breaking Christmas Eve into parts. Parts! It was that great. (Yes, I'm finally blogging about Christmas. One. Month. Late. Yay, me!)On Christmas Eve morning, we got up and headed to Mimi and Poppa's house for the annual Christmas Eve Baking of Sugar Cookies for Santa. Just as we did last year, we used DeeDee's famous cookie recipe so that she and Buddy were with us in spirit. The pictures will tell the rest of the story - Phillip is a much better cookie-maker than I am, Jack is the Sprinkle King (and quite the ham), Mimi has the Patience of Job, Poppa has the good sense to avoid cookie baking at all costs, and a tractor makes cookie baking even more fun!

I LOVE this tradition. Ours doesn't always happen at the same place with the same people, but no matter what, we bake cookies! Looking forward to the rest of the story!
You are killing me with the Christmas posts! Glad I've already seen the castle -- don't think I could make it until April! ;o)
