Cooking, Crafting & Cookie Making

As we should be doing around the holidays,we've spent the last week cooking, crafting and making 11 batches of cookies.  It has been really nice to have a week of no other obligations than just want we want to do being at home.  A rare occasion.  We also got in some time to watch Holiday Inn and White Christmas.  If you ever get a chance ask Lily about all the Bing Crosby facts she knows.  Mind blowing.

Shell trees, the product of lots of shelling in Bonita + two nights of burning my hands with the hot glue gun.  Lily did a great job tell me where to put all her black and white shells.
