Since I was taking my own Christmas card photos this year, I needed to do something that wasn’t too posed so that I could take the photos, but also be in some of them.
My plan!? Make cookies! That way my teenager could snap some pics of me, but I would be in charge of photographing the children.
We used a family favorite recipe (although I did something wrong this time and they weren’t yummy- must’ve been the pressure of the camera!?)

Monster Cookies!
I wanted pictures of us doing what we really do, only cheesy-er (I made that word up).
So, we exchanged gifts, ate candy, wore coordinated outfits, and played CHUBBY BUNNY!

My oldest daughter loves to “baby the baby” so that was 100% true to life.
My son’s hand in the candy jar, being sneaky??? No comment.
