That's one mom, one dad, two litle boys and a teenage daughter!
IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE!

~Bake Day~

Bake Day is one of my favorite days of the year!  Especially since each year we always add at least one new recipe to our list.  This year we added Nutella Cookies, Poke Cake, and Candy Cane Pizza.  I must say I am more and more impressed with our skills each year, but I think my favorite part is just being together and having fun. 
Nutella Cookies, Kiss Cookies, & Sugar Cookies 
Cake Balls - a must make! 
Our first "Poke" Cake
Then for dinner, I made this candy cane pizza!  It was pretty easy to make and pretty cute!  
The boys also did their annual gift exchange!  This is always so fun because the boys love exchanging with each other.  Colin got moon dough and I think Avie could see the scared look on my face.  I remember years ago when moon dough first came out and Avie told me it was a disaster!   Well, this mood dough is NOT a disaster and I love it!  It feels so smooth and light, I love it! 
 
 
Ashton opened his presents next! 
 
And finally it was Cade's turn!  
   
He was so excited about these Lego's! 
  
And my complete, SURPRISE, gift!  I love, love, love it!  Thank you so much, Avie! 
 
 It was finally time for these boys to make some Reindeer Food!  They LOVED making this stuff and they can't wait to sprinkle it on our yard for the reindeer.  
Can you see the excitement in their faces?  I mean seriously, they loved this! 
Three scoops of oats, one scoop of chocolate chips, three shakes of green, three shakes of red, and 1 tablespoon of sprinkles!  It's our own secret recipe for Reindeer Food!
 
We really had such a fun time yesterday!  I enjoyed the time we got to spend together and the fun things we got to do with the boys.  I know these are things the boys will remember and will hopefully pass down to their own children later in life.  Traditions!
