Cookie Exchange




Last Sunday, I hosted my second cookie exchange. This year was just as fun as last year, plus we had a special addition of SANTA visiting!  It was a wonderful time to catch up with friends, snack on some goodies, and let the kiddos play.  This is a tradition I really enjoy!

A place for the kids to play...and Santa to visit!

Trays ready for guests and their cookies!

Drinks - we also had hot apple cider with mulling spices.

Elfie hanging out.  (We haven't named him yet...)
Some guests start to arrive, including Hadleigh in her adorable outfit!  The light on my camera was weird for most of these pics. :(

Friends say hi and give hugs!



Kids start to play with toys!

More toys!

And more toys!

...AND MORE TOYS!

Lindsey also served as photographer when Santa arrived and some of the pictures were just precious.  I left the cd at work, so I will have to add them later.  It was a lot of fun!
