Christmas Cookies

This year I had the girls help me make some Christmas cookies.  They loved it, especially eating them.




They couldn't wait for the cookies to be done.
We baked one day and frosted the next.




Carly's cookies

Layla's cookies
After frosting and eating, we decided to go outside and enjoy the 80 degree, sunny weather before we head to Kansas in a few days.

First Dance Recital


The girls started dance this year.  This semester was ballet and hip hop.  They had a winter recital and it was pretty cute.

Carly and Layla before we left.


The first dance they did was ballet.  Both girls were sitting on their mark until another kid peeked through the black curtain.  That scared Carly, so she wanted to stand by the teacher.  And what one does, the other does.....


The next dance was hip hop.  (When I uploaded the video to YouTube it said the music was copyrighted so they muted it.  ?? )  I guess you have to imagine the music.  It was a hip hoppy Santa Claus is Coming to Town.




It was fun to watch them.  Can't wait to see what they do next.
