Cookie baking tradition






It has been a tradition in Bryan's family since he was little to spend a day baking Christmas cookies. The whole family gets together (including the extended family from down the road--Greg and Mariah have been adopted whether they wanted to be or not!), and bakes cookies, makes candy, and spends the day just hanging out. Everyone looks forward to it every year! As you can see, it's Bryan's job to roll out the dough. He also gets in on the decorating, though, because the rule is: if you don't help decorate, you don't get to help eat! Austin (who used to jump in front of a camera every time someone pulled one out) has gotten a little camera shy lately, and chosen to be more behind the lens instead of in front... He thought we needed a picture of the table as it was starting to fill up with decorated cookies.
