Well my annual Christmas cookie exchange came and it was as fun as ever!
It is something that I look forward to every year. I kinda over do it a bit I am told but it is something that I love doing!
Some of the ladies that came for the first time were a little intimidated with baking 9 dozen cookies, but hopefully in the long run it was worth it for them! I even had one lady who emailed me wanting to know if I was serious! Hahaha!
Anyhow, 11 ladies were able to make it this year. It was definitely a fun bunch of ladies!
I had friends I knew from ,y childhood, friends from high school, friends from my old ward in Gilbert, friends from my new ward in Chandler, a friend I had made recently at Sam's club, and my cousin too! To me that is what the holidays are about. Spending it with friends and family. It's one of the things that makes the holidays for me!
We had a yummy dinner then we swapped cookies.I think the boxes I made this year turned out cuter than the ones I made last year and the cookies looked so cute in them!
Thank you to all my friends who came for making it such a great night. I am already looking forward to next years exchange!!!
