So here's to you, Mrs. Hamilton (with a haircut on the side)

I was blessed to be born into the family with the greatest frosted cookie recipe ever conceived. I have never met Mrs. Hamilton, but I sure do love her cookies. This Christmas, Eden is sharing in the fun.

And just because I'm sitting at the computer trying to explain to my 8-month-old why we do not test our vocal volume while sister is sleeping (read: I need to get out of this chair and ENGAGE!) I'd better add some pictures of Eden's haircut this afternoon with Nukka. Eden has, in the past few weeks, abandoned this endearing nickname for her Aunt Megan, but I'll keep it alive as long as I can. (You're welcome, Nukka.)







It was hard work battling those curls. ;) And contrary to the less-than-elated face, Eden loves her new look. Playing with it on the way home, she kept saying, "Megan cut my hair so preety!"

Okay, back to business.

Preety, indeed! And the cookie (hand?) decorating looked yummy! Ah, you memory-keeper extraordinaire!

I'm not just saying this because she's my niece; she sat still better than most five-year-olds. Now I'm going to binge on Mrs. Hamilton's cookies.

Is it a secret recipe? :) I've been on a hunt for a good Christmas cookie recipe for years! Great pics as always. And beautiful job on the haircut Meg!

Tell cookie monster to go easy on the sprinkles! And maybe it's just the color scheme or the fact that I watched it recently, but she looks like a young Amelie with the new haircut. Can't wait to see you guys!
