I have never gone to my grandma’s to decorate cookies. It was a tradition for the younger cousins (on my mom’s side) to go to Grandma Marge’s house and decorate cookies.

But I think the tradition started while was in college or while I was living/working in Greeley, so I’d never actually gone to Grandma’s to join my cousins in this activity.

Later on, Adam and Laura (my brother and sister-in-law), their daughter Adalyse, and my cousin Matt all came to join the cookie decorating party. Grandma made us all a wonderful lunch.

I had a great time!

If you are looking for a fun activity to do with kids (or adultish people who act like kids), try cookie decorating. I think you’ll enjoy it. We did!

This guy lost his head, so I decorated appropriately.

Hope you are also enjoying your holiday season!
