On the second day of Christmas we made sugar cookies - great big star sugar cookies decorated with sprinkles. This was mainly EM's and my project...LuV got bored quickly.

Cute pictures of your girls! It sounds like you are doing a lot of fun Christmas activities. The only thing that Jake and I have done it put up our "embarassing tree" as Jake calls it and hung tacky lights in the window.
We are so excited to see you guys!
