Cookie, Cookie, Cookie Starts With C

I am SO ready for Christmas to be here. This week is going slow again, but I think it's only because I'm ready for a long weekend and the excitement of Christmas!

I got some of my pictures to upload that I wanted to share the other night, and have a couple more that I wanted to share from today.

It's a Christmas miracle folks! My hubby got the urge to bake today. I'm not sure he's ever done that before, but he decided to make his mom's sugar cookies from scratch. They turned out very tasty! Of course, he doesn't like frosting (I know. Right?! :)) so they're plain, but they're soft and yummy.

These are the "rejects". I forgot to warn him that if you try to take them off the pan before they cool enough, they'll break. He learned quickly though, and we're snacking on them tonight.

He did a great job though. I told him, he gets to learn how to cook me supper next! He even cleaned up the kitchen!

Anyway...here were my cookies. They're all gone now. I gave some away as a gift. Plus took a tray to the Christmas party the other night and another tray to work.

I'm feeling kind fat, but I plan to get back into shape after the Christmas season. I've slacked off big time on riding the bike. That would probably help my energy level, but being sick hasn't helped my motivation level at all. Plus the only weight I've gained is what I lost when I was sick with the stomach flu.

Here are a few pictures from Saturday night too. Jacob with his White Elephant. Us with a Shake Weight. And Liam and Jack.

I can't believe I have a cold. It's  been driving me crazy. My chest hurts, but it's not as bad as it was earlier this week. It's bad at night and in the morning, but by mid-afternoon I'm doing okay.

1 more day of work left! Then we're heading to Villa Grove tomorrow night for the weekend. If I don't get a chance to blog again, I hope you all have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!
