Christmas Cookies

Sarah and Sean both ended school at Noon today,so we decdied to bake Christmas cookies. Sarah and I had prepared the sugar cookie and gingerbread cookie batter yesterday, so that it would chill over night. The kids had fun rolling, using cookie cutters,and then decorating them after they were baked. We even made our own buttercream frosting for









the sugrar cookies and cream cheese frosting for the gingerbread cookies. It was a fun way to spend the afternoon.

Christmas Market in Monaco

We took the kids to the Christmas Market in Monaco. The kids had a great time on the rides. Sean rode his first rollar coaster today and loved it! The roller coaster was Santa's sleigh. ITs a good thing Sean and Sarah enjoyed the rollar coaster b/c it went around the track 5 times in a row without stopping. Also the kids enjoyed doing an obsta






cle course in a giant bubble! What a fun morning!

Christmas Market in NIce

We took the kids to the Christmas Market in Nice since they had amazing Christmas light displays! Also they had bubbles that looked like snow. The kids enjoyed catching the snow bubbles. We enjoyed the market with friends and then all went to dinner at a great Japonese resturant! What a great night!
