Christmas, Cookie Baking, and Valentine's Day!!!

Christmas Day

 

We had a good time celebrating Christmas at the house.  Kingston had a blast opening presents and passing them out.  He was thrilled to get Frozen wrapped presents from me and Luke.  I had been teasing him off and on since Silver Dollar City that Santa might bring him Frozen girl toys.  He brought him Frozen wrapped playing cards instead!  Now I have a whole roll of Frozen paper that I'm gonna wrap his gifts in til it's gone!

  Mom and I fixed a big lunch of Ham, Pork tenderloin, Orange Fluff, Sweet Potatoes, and Green beans.  We had several desserts including cookies.  That evening Luke and I wanted to get out of the house for a bit.  We went driving around and ended up at Samurai for dinner.  That might be a tradition from now on!


Baking Cookies....

 He didn't want to smile for a picture!

 I had a towel around my shoulder.  I told Kingston to wipe his hands on it.  When he did, he says, "I'm gonna put it on my belt just like my Daddy did." 

 He loved scooping the dough and putting on the cookie sheet.  Then we added white chocolate chips to it.  He called them eyes!

Valentine's Day Party:

I went yesterday to Kingston's Valentine's Party.  When I got there the teacher was reading a book.  After she finished, it was time for the sugar rush to begin.  Homeroom Moms passed out fruit, cupcakes, and cookies.  They were able to decorate a cookie too.  It was basically a contest to see who could put as much icing on the cookie as they could!  Kingston did pretty good in that department.  I teased him about his Frozen Valentine from a kid in their class.  He just laughed and rolled his eyes. When I bent down to get a picture with him my knees cracked.  I must have groaned because the little girl sitting next to Kingston asked, "Are you his Grandma?"  No kid, I'm not, but thanks for pointing out I have arthritis! LOL! It was fun.
