We had our first annual Cookie Baking Day with my mom and sister {and niece!} last weekend, and it was such fun! We will definitely have to add this to our list of traditions, because Family + Cookies = all sorts of wonderful memories.
We made my variation of Jam Thumbprints:

Those are Jeremy's favs. I think they're okay. I mean, I wouldn't turn down a cookie, but Jeremy thinks they're the greatest cookies on earth.
We attempted to use a cookie press, but it just wasn't workin' so great.
Which actually resulted in a lot of laughter and even a few shenanigans. I love that photo. Sierra was either totally embarassed, or laughing so hard she couldn't keep her head up any longer. I'm thinking it was the latter ;)
Then Sadie got serious about it, and managed to create a few trees. And they were SO adorable.
See?
We wound up with a LOT of cookies. But we're not complaining one bit!
Have y'all started baking?

They all look so yummy! I still haven't tried thumbprint cookies and I have wanted to for years! Maybe I will this year since we have a cabinet full of homemade strawberry jam:)
Those look so good! We haven't started baking yet. I will start on Friday.
I think your town is worth the drive to get to those cookies! You neice is gorgeous...do you have any ugly family members? Tell me. I won't tell.
Look at that box of cookies!!! I'm starving!!!! These pictures are great!!!! That was a lot of exclamation marks... :o)
We will start baking this week, but only things to take to other people. I cannot trust myself around cookies! I WILL eat as many as possible and feel no regret.
YUM! Our favorites are toffee crack and mint meringues at this time of year :)
I really need to get baking some cookies this year. I am so not good at it though. Those cookies look delish. HOpe you are all doing well. Just looked at your photography site. Gorgeous pictures.
YUM!
My press works great! But I used to have one that didn't.
I think this is an awesome tradition!!!
I tried a cookie press before...it worked ONE year and then NEVER again!!!!
What a blast. I am starting our baking in the morning. I love the new header. Your girls are so cute. Blessings.
Those looks DElicious. Um, I'm with Jeremy that jam thumbprints are the best!!! I think they are my favorite cookie. In fact, I'm making some this weekend :)
