I SMELL COOKIES!!

Hello fellow bloggers and friends,

I am starting to feel like myself again! Yeah!!

My family gets together every Christmas for the annual cookie bake and this year my Abbie was large and in charge of rolling the dough for cut out sugar cookies. We had a great time, sugar cookie cut outs, pecan balls, chocolate chips, snickerdoodles, sugar overload!

After the cookie bake we always go on a Christmas light tour. This year we went to Christmas Magic in York, PA at the Rocky Ridge Park. What a wonderful display of lights.

Here is me and my girl on that cold winter night.

Next we went to the Santa Claus room. I think this is the cutest pic of my Abbie! I hope she belives forever!

Good Nite all!
