Some Christmas Fun...










I think these pictures are pretty self explanatory!! The kids made these Christmas biscuits today. Boy, did they test my patience!! They wanted to do everything, and as much as I TRIED to let them, I was glad when it was all over. In saying that though, I think they did a great job decorating (although icing was slopped everywhere and all their fingers are still green!!).

Daddy said he can't wait to get home to try the "green biscuits" so they kids are waiting in anticipation :)

Katrina shouldn't that heading say Some Christmas Stress. When I do baking and icing the cookies with Chloe and Lachlan I find myself tensing up. You want to let them do it on their own BUT it is so hard to keep my hands away from the cookies. THEN THE MESS Arrgggghhh.
Oh well - that's life. Hope you didn't then have a surprise inspection of your house. Is it on the market yet?

Too right Alison!! Haha. Yes house is on the market but they know they have to give me 24 hrs notice. Not gonna happen with children under my feet, so plenty of notice is needed!! Not expecting much to happen with the house until after Xmas. I am not at all worrying about it as we have no where to go yet so I am happy to take my time. Thanks for asking though :)

Have a wonderful Christmas!

What wonderful memories you brought back to me! I have four boys - all grown now. I remember having them make Christmas cookies and decorating them! What a mess :-) But so much fun, when you look back at it.

All gorgeous, and the biscuits!
Actually a friend of mime recently went overseas with her kids, so I made cupcakes with green icing, and the letters to spell happy holidays! The green was everywhere!
Oh it's all fun, and worth the mess, isnt it?
