I've never done Christmas Cookies before. Audrey's been asking to do cupcakes and sprinkles. I keep telling her that we will some other time. We've had too much sugar around this house. I finally caved and decided we'd do gingerbread cookies instead. Although a pumpkin cupcake with a cream cheese frosting is sounding really good right now.
Her favorite part was choosing sprinkles at the store. She kept pulling more and more off the shelf. Luckily we only left with three. :) We waited so patiently for Paul to get home. I have to say that after this experiment I would much rather decorate cookies than Gingerbread houses. This might be our new tradition. They were yum. I might have let Audrey have two right before bed, and I might have regretted it later. Christmas traditions are the best!
Later in the week we went to see lights. There's a community here that has a contest every year. Each street decorates and then prizes are given each year. Audrey enjoyed sitting in the front seat and hanging her head out the window. I don't think she remembers last year because she was just as excited to see the same lights. She asked me later in the week why we didn't have lights on our house. I didn't have an answer for her. I guess we're boring people. Someday our house will look like Christmas on the outside too!
