Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Birthday!!!!

We had a wonderful Christmas at home in Amarillo with our families!!! We were there for the whole week, so we got in a lot of family time and even got to enjoy some time with some of our closets friends! We are so blessed by the people in our life and were reminded of that this Christmas season!

Cookies For Santa

December is my favorite month for many reasons, but one of the biggest reasons is because I get to do a lot of baking!!! I think I must have spent the entire month of December in my kitchen if I wasn't at some type of celebration! Here's a peek at some of the christmas cookies that I made this year. I think I ended up making almost 7 dozen of these!!! It might have taken a long time to make all those cookies, but at least I have fun while doing it!!!
