I have such fond memories of making Christmas cookies with my mom and Shannon...so I decided that Meredith and I would make them together this year. What was I thinking?!? She loves to help in the kitchen, but she is so dangerous!! I really had fun with her, but was exhausted by the time we were finished...about 2 hours later.

I prepared the cookie dough the night before, but we still had to roll it out, cut out the shapes, make the icing, and decorate.
Here are some pics. Enjoy! :)
