We started the season off with making Swedish Ginger Snap cookies to send to Bryce in the Philippines. We thought it was a good idea since they are suppose to be stored in an airtight container for about a month and it takes about 3 weeks for Bryce to get a package. So we sealed them with a food saver. We used the same recipe as in the past and we all thought they tasted good here. Sadly Bryce said that they tasted funny and weren't very good, but Kaylee had fun helping roll and cut cookies for Bryce so that's good.

We also made fruit cake again this year and it turned out pretty good. We even decided to make a batch without all the nasty stuff and Nykol and I really liked it.
Supplies for O'Henrys
We made peppermint bark again this year and Kaylee enjoy working the microwave and watching me pour the chocolate.
We tried red chocolate this year and I prefer it over the white for the trees but not the gingerbread men.
And Conner for the most part of all the making of treats just ran around happy to be with people and getting fed bits and pieces of what was being made.
Here I am rolling out sugar cookies which we never did frost but still tasted good. And Kaylee is making it "snow" and saying Happy Holidays.
Conner really enjoyed playing in the "snow"
