Cookie baking

Instead of gingerbread men, I baked gingerbread nativities. This year the ladies in our family hosted a cookie exchange and I spent Thursday creating replicas of the star, Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus in a manger.

I enlisted Logan's help in rolling out the dough, after promising that he could eat the biggest cookie from the batch. Naomi volunteered to frost them after they were cooled. She, in turn, was "helped" by the four-year-old Libby was babysitting.
