On Saturday afternoon we began a new holiday tradition with the Witherspoons. We joined Dave, Christy, Ian and Luke for cookie decorating and dinner. We both arrived armed with pre-made cookies, some sugar and some gingerbread, and decorations and icing.
Ben "hung with it" much longer than I expected and surely because of the sugar and Ian was entertained even longer.
Dinner was glazed chicken legs from a recent Wildtree party Christy attended and was incredibly delicious. I am excited to be attending a party in February and get in on the Wildtree craze.
The boys had SO much fun playing all evening and Luke awoke part way through dinner perfectly on cue. I look forward to this being an annual tradition and seeing just how elaborate the cookies get over the years. I also think with the sweet tooth's we have on hand that these boys might never be "too cool, " to decorate cookies.

I love this post!!! We decorate cookies every year, and I still have fun. The Williams Sonoma icing tubes are great for detail work -- When the kids get old enough for details. :)
