It’s our tradition to make large gingerbread cookies and decorate them on Christmas Day. I wasn’t able to get them ready for Christmas Day, so we made them this week.

Each child made his own pattern (some with help). Clara enjoyed eating her cookie while decorating it. I can tell I’m a less controlling mama now…you want to eat your cookie and the toppings before we get a cute picture…have at it!

It was a fun project and I’m glad we still got to do it, even though we were a week late.
