The start of a new tradition...

I think that family traditions are very important and I really want to start them with my daughter. I thought that baking and decorating cookies for Santa would be a fun one (along with the gingerbread house that we made last weekend). I spent a couple of nights last week making Gingerbread men and sugar cookie trees and stars. Then Christmas Eve Grandma, Mommy, and Guiliana and even Uncle Paulie had a cookie decorating party. We made 36 cookies total and then packaged them up and gave out as gifts to family. It was a fun tradition that I will continue for many years to come.









Here is the plate of cookies that we left for Santa:
