Ever since Caiden was born, I have been making cookies with Caiden for the neighbors. This year was no exception.
Caiden has been such a big helper and loves to make the cookies. He really got into it this year as you can tell from the flour on his face, and of course some frosting. He really takes pride in his work, and has to "test" the frosting to ensure that it is fresh and usable :P
Ready to Roll
The proper technique - one must be completely on the counter
Lean over to ensure proper shape cutting
beautiful presentation
add some sprinkles
smash down to ensure proper securing of sprinkles
decorated unsprinkled cookies with frosting - taste first to ensure frosting freshness
make cute faces
plate the cookies
After we finished making the cookies we dressed up in our winter gear and trekked out into the frigid temperatures (about 35 degrees) to pass out our cookies to our neighbors. :)
Deliver with Daddy and mama :)
The below video is one of our neighbor's houses. They went ALL out for Christmas...we told them they really should get into the spirit of decorating. :)

What a great idea and a good way to teach him the spirit of Christmas. He loves to help cook.
Holy cow...you have some competition in for holiday decorating!!
Where are my cookies Caiden!?!??
Heather: I know. The funny thing last year was every time we put something else up, he went and bought more.
He started his decorating early, and I quickly decided that we were OUT of that little competition. It DOES look very festive though. :)
Wow, those are some really fabulous cookies!
Tell Caiden I am placing my order for birthday cookies now!! :)
