They mangled the dough beyond recognition and then immediately squished the shapes they did cut out in their hands. And then Christian dumped a whole cup of flour ON to the dough.<BR/>Yep...good times. :o)<BR/>They'll remember it as great times, though...right?<BR/>Nice job on the cookies.

Especially the part about wishing that I had more patience with the kids! Before a certain age, kids really can't cut these cookies out -- the sprinkles are definitely a better job for them (although mine bury the cookies in sprinkles -- do yours?) Anyway, your cookies look beautiful -- I love the icing and the sparkly sugar!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06859210460017421539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336096338851447197.post-75320856582662122112008-12-10T12:18:00.000-06:002008-12-10T12:18:00.000-06:00cookies look adorable:)cookies look adorable:)Chandanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13708253421759684875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336096338851447197.post-24161124236772067962008-12-10T10:04:00.000-06:002008-12-10T10:04:00.000-06:00I love the story of your daughter being old enough...I love the story of your daughter being old enough to knock off a couple of ornaments off of that tree!
