Can you even believe how cute this is?!?!? We went to Macy's a few weeks ago and found this coat for Alice that perfectly matches mine! I think one thing that makes the whole thing even better - it was only $10! There must be something on the lens of our camera - the bottom of the image is a little fuzzy. That's on all of these pictures - oh well! When we have worn these coats at the same time - we get rave reviews! I'm glad she wants to dress like me. We'll see how long that lasts!!
We had such a fabulous Christmas vacation, I thought I'd relive it all by posting some great pictures. I have some awesome ones from the family Christmas pageant, but I'll save that for a later post.
We traveled first to Jefferson City for our break. One activity I knew I wanted to do while we were there was to make cookies and decorate them with icing. I couldn't have handled it without my mom!! As is often the case, the recipe we made was sticky, so we had a very difficult time with the dough and transferring the shapes onto the cookie sheet. I also wanted to make sure that we had enough cookies - so we doubled the recipe! We had enough!! HA! Grady and Alice really got into decorating the cookies. They both were pretty good at handling the cookie cutters. The icing of the cookies was even better! Both children really enjoyed and got into the different colors and making designs. It was a really fun project!
Pryor decorated maybe one cookie, but he was happiest cutting up paper. This is his new favorite activity! The trick is just to make sure that the paper he is cutting up isn't important!
