Christmas Time Is Here!!

Am loving being home this week getting ready for Christmas!!  Baking, snow, wrapping... oh my!!

The snow finally stopped sometime while I was sleeping Sunday night.  I can't even guess how much we got.

This is my back deck.

As long as I can remember my Mom has made homemade cinnamon bread for Christmas.  This year I wanted to make some for my neighbors.  So I attempted it myself.  They came out okay (not as good as Mom's though).  I think next year we'll have a lesson together.

I finally found the perfect sugar cookie recipe, and made some with the cookie cutters I had growing up.  They bring back so many memories.  I just love the Raggedy Ann one!!

On an unrelated Christmas note... I went to get Madalynn from her nap the other day, and she had her animals stacked up on her bumper pad, and was talking to them.   As you can see Piglet & Tigger had fallen by the time I got my camera... too cute though.

She has also figured out how to climb up on the furniture, and is VERY proud of herself, makes Mommy quite nervous though.
