The kids and I managed to fit in some holiday baking this year, which is great because I love giving that personalized gift of holiday baking!

One day we made gingerbread cookies (shot with the Canon 24–70 mm f2.8L lens), and you can find the recipe on the SavvyMom EatSavvy Blog, where I participated in the Great Savvy Bake-Off:

On another day we made some yummy sugar cookies (shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):
The kids had fun decorating these ones (shot with the Canon 24–70 mm f2.8L lens):
Throughout all the baking activity, Alice just ‘chillaxed‘ (as my daughter Rebecca would say), which was a very good thing! Except when she disappeared from hanging out with us on the evening of the gingerbread cookie baking, Noah found her snacking on a gingerbread cookie in the dining room! They were set out to let the icing completely dry…have to get used to having a cat that can get into food in the house! lol (Shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):
