Mr Wyatt went to town on the cookies!

    We got to have our annual cookie party last Friday.  As always we started out with potato soup and rolls then headed out caravan style to see the lights.  This year we lucked out because one of the house on our light seeing route was passing out hot chocolate and another house was passing out candy canes.  I think the kids loved it!  Kabree was pretty excited seeing the lights and singing "jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way..." (that's all she knows of the song so she just sings it over and over).    Kabree stated chanting "Santa, Santa, Santa..." in the car and Dad tells Kabree 'let's cheer Grandpa, Grandpa, Grandpa!" Kabree very irritated yells "No, Grandpa, it's Santa, not Grandpa, Santa, Santa...", can you say attitude.  After the lights we headed back to the house for cookies and milk.  Ok so I was lazy this year and only made 4 kinds of cookies and I did not make the waffle or raspberry shortbread cookies I always make.  I thought no one would care but what was the first thing the kids said when they saw the cookies, "where's the raspberry cookies", so I guess now I know for next year they are not the cookie to pass on.  Then we ended the night as always watching the Jim Carrey version of the "Grinch".  It was so fun to have our families come and share our favorite holiday tradition with us!
