Cookie Decorating

Saturday, we attended a storytime and cookie decorating event focused on the Christmas season. It was a wonderful time for Natalie to enjoy both being around other children, learning the true meaning of Christmas, and enjoying some new activity with cookies!

Here's Natalie at story time. She had snuck up there early, which worked out well when it was actually time to help decorate the Christmas tree with the balls. The gold ones were to remind of heaven, the black of the state of our heart without Jesus, the red for His sacrifice for us, and the white for the new heart with Him. It is kind of like the salvation bracelet if you have ever seen. They also talked about the baby Jesus and His birthday. We sang songs too, which Natalie really likes.


But, cookie time was also a big hit. She really enjoyed decorating, and I thought it was a really neat way to use frosting with paintbrushes. And, of course, the candies were a hit too!
Ah, the best part of decorating cookies!
