Holiday fun

My grandma always sends us some omaha steaks for Christmas. This year, Carson and Kylie were really excited to help open the box and put them away in the freezer. They then had lots of fun playing with, and inside the box. Kyle always likes to play with the dry ice in the sink, and his little helpers were right there to share in the fun! We also made some peanut butter cookies this week, and dipped them in colorful sprinkles instead of sugar. The kids love to help make things, and I must say that they are two of the cutest little chefs I have ever seen!

I would have never guessed that a box of frozen steaks could be so much fun (for little kids anyways)! Way to go grandma!

The dry ice is always a big hit with their dad each year, so you know how the kids must have felt about it.

Hard at work

The best part is sampling the product along the way. Yes there are feet on the counter, but they are clean feet............at least I hope they are! =0)

They decided to try and mix the red and green sprinkles. I also thought it was a good idea, until we saw how the cookies looked kind of dark. That gave us a good reason to hurry up and eat those ones, before anyone else saw them!

Do you remember the dry ice bombs that Andy and the boys were doing the year we left for Cleveland? They blew the bottom out of one of dad's buckets?
Kylie and Carson are so cute, I loved the pictures. Hope you're feeling okay!
