Christmas treats.

We have been soaked in sweets this month.  It started off with a cookie party where I had to bring 13 dozen cookies and I came home with 12 different varieties, a dozen each.  Unfortunately, we ate more of those than we gave away. :)  

Then Aunt Susie sent a box full of treat making supplies and you can see here the fun the kids had making decorated oreos covered in colorful almond bark.  There were also the reindeer candy canes, chocolate Christmas trees and candy necklaces that look like Christmas  lights.  So cute.  We made some of them with friends and the ones we made on our own ended up making good gifts for their other friends.

Finally, the girls each made more cookies to attend their own cookie party this past Saturday.  Of course, they only needed to make a few dozen each and the extra cookies from the party were donated to a local Christmas dinner for those in need in our community.  All in all, it's been a deliciously fun December.
