Christmas at the Codlings

Every year we get together with our dear friends, Barry and Sue Codling, Tim, Tiffany, Addy and Ava Codling, and Jeff, Sonia and Brendan Mitchell. We eat, drink and enjoy the company.

Now that the kids are bigger, we have decided to start a new tradition. We are going to let them decorate cookies. This year was a trial run! They all seemed to have fun though.

Ainsleigh loved eating the icing and sprinkles off her cookie.

Addy couldn't get enough of the chocolate sprinkles so she finally just ate them out of the jar!

Cooper loved the icing and sprinkles too.

Boy, Brendan had the most fun. I bet he decorated 7 or 8 cookies! He loved spreading the icing, but it finally got the best of him. He had to lick the knife!

Well, the party was a success! Jackson fell asleep in the middle of the madness around 8:30 or so. The little ones were running around like Energizer Bunnies until almost 10!
