Christmas Prep Time!

It's a tradition to bake some cookies for Santa and set out some carrots for the reindeer before we head off to bed on Christmas Eve...as such, I pulled out all the stops and broke out my super-santa-freaky-secret chocolate chip cookie recipe for the grand occasion...




It's the Little Brat's job to form the cookie dough into perfectly round balls of Santa-satisfying goodness...she's a master at this...


...and when the cookies are done, we add a glass of milk to wash them down and some fresh carrots for the exhausted reindeer...

....and then it's off to bed....cuz he KNOWS when we are sleeping.


Sweet Dreams!
Happy Holidays,
The Roehl Family

What is Randi wearing? :)
It doesn't look so safe, perched up there on the counter with no legs!

I am glad you had a good Christmas! Happy belated birthday...how was it?

Sarah also got a Strawberry House, closest thing she has to a dollhouse at the moment. Lots of love, Kate

Kate:
Randi is sporting an awesomely LARGE Christmas stocking that appeared out of nowhere...we have no idea where it actually came from,as I don't remember it from last year...she's been wearing it all over the house...silly baby!

I had a wonderful Birthday with JR and Randi...Jr made me breakfast in bed, then Randi accompanied me around town to get our nails and hair fancied up....the day ended with a yummy dinner out with the family...couldn't ask for more!

So happy Sarah got that Strawberry house...Randi loves hers...

Happy New Year!
