Ever since I was a little girl, I remember making sugar cookies with my Grandma Joyce. Since I was the only grandchild for about 6 years, and then there were a few years after that when I was the only one old enough to help, that meant that I got to make a lot of cookies. We usually left out a few for Santa, and then enjoyed the rest of them over the next few days. It's a tradition that I think of fondly, and I have decided to start with my own kids. Over the last 2 days, Will and I have probably made over 2 dozen cookies. I'm not sure if there will be any left for Santa next week, considering both Bill and Will enjoy my baking a little too much, and a lot of them will end up being gifts for friends, but I'm looking forward to doing this every year with my kids and maybe even my own grandkids someday.

traditions like this are so good. See, how you remember and Will will remember also his time with his parents and the special things that you all do together. Being away like you are is also a great time to establish your own traditions.
Oh I am so glad I'm not at your house. Any more sugar cookies would probably do me in!!
I love your tradition! As a family we have one that is very similar. We hope that you have a great Christmas!
