It's beginning to look alot like Christmas

Lately, I have been feeling very creative so I made candle lanterns seen here. I printed some Christmas sayings on normal white paper, wrapped it around into a cylindar, then tied with a ribbon. I think it looks great next to my favorite picture of Ben and I lit by candles.
I also felt the need to bake-which is a rarity in our house. So Christmas cookies it was! Here are the finished cookies with homemade frosting. I also tried something a little different with the gingerbread men. I melted chocolate then sprinkled them with crushed candy canes. Yum!

Ben even got involved by decorating some cookies.

Proof I am cooking.
cut out sugar cookies, Ben's favorite
