Christmas Cookies and Rock Band

I haven't had much of a chance to post lately because I'm sure like everyone else we haven't stopped these past few weeks. Plus, I have been working to fill my time while being out of school so I am not home during the day which is when I do much of my posting. So what have we been up to lately?

This past weekend we had Christmas with my mom's side of the family. My mom and John came down Friday night so they could be here for the festivities. My Grandma cooked an amazing meal and I have seriously not seen that much food in my entire life. They had the regular family there and had invited several families from their church, so we had about 35-40 people there. Of course, my grandma cooked it all. The food was delicous and everyone walked away stuffed and there was still food left over.

Sunday night the parents decided that we could all open one gift. So Santa came a little early. They got DW's brother Rock Band for Wii. I think they let him open it because they couldn't wait to play it. Needless to say, we haven't stopped playing it...

We've gotten pretty good at it so far. Each person has something they are best at. Mine is singing followed by the guitar. Warning, if you start playing you will become addicted.

Monday night Momma Mabrey and I made cookies. They tasted good but my decorating left little to be desired. They make it look so easy on the cookie commercials.

Of course the decorating didn't stop anyone in our house from eating them.
