Friday was spent baking Christmas cookies with the help of my little elf Emily. She had so much fun and I loved starting yet another holiday tradition with her. It was a perfect day for cookie baking. The weather was too snowy to be out-doors. We did miss my Mom being with us, the weather kept her from coming over. Gary did manage to make into work on Friday despite the foot of snow we got. He rode into work with a co-worker who lives in McHenry too and has a four wheel drive truck. They made good time and arrived both to work and home safely. The adorable apron and hat Emily is wearing was a Christmas gift from our friends Molly and Sadie Dwyer. Thank you Dwyer family!
