For the last three years, Sam, Emma and Matthew come over around Christmas time to make and decorate LOTS of Christmas cookies. We had a lot of fun this year.  We usually watch Eloise Christmas while we decorate the cookies, but this year we watched Bambi :-) Sam had to leave early, so that's why he's not in any of the pictures.  Maybe next time piano won't conflict with COOKIE TIME!!!! :-) Looking forward to next year!!
