We started off the Christmas season with a fun filled day on Thursday. I made some sugar cookie cut outs to be decorated later that night. It was our Thursday to have my niece. Their arrival got delayed because I had to rush Payton to the hospital to get x-rays from her throat to belly because I thought she swallowed an ornament hook. Praise Jesus, she did not and we came back home and then the girls were dropped off. They played while I got dinner ready. After dinner we went to the neighbors house because they had planned that night cookies with Santa. So off we went for the girls to see Santa. Didn't really go over to well. That nice big jolly guy apparently also can be scary. The girls wouldn't sit with Santa or talk to him. Payton did the best out of the three of them but they were excited once we got back home to say they saw Santa. They even got to wear the shirts and Santa hats that Nana bought them.
Once we came back to the house we got out the icing I made and had already colored and the cookies. We got them situated at the table and gave them 1 cookie at a time and helped them decorate. They had a ball icing everywhere, liking their fingers, dumping sprinkles. I new it would messy but they had a great time. Once they were done decorating they got to eat the last cookie they made. In Payton's case it meant that she was free to only eat the icing.
