Debbie and Dave arrived Friday evening December 21. Ally had practice as usual that night and early on Saturday morning. She was pretty tired and fighting a cold and spent most of the weekend in her room. But we did manage to coax her out for some cookie decorating, dinner at home with Beth's boyfriend Christy and a rousing Spoons tournament. For the record Poppy Dave lost at Spoons.
Beth had casually mentioned that she was in the mood to decorate cookies. So we whipped up some sugar cookie batter. The challenge was that we had not yet unpacked our rolling pin and had no idea where it was - we did manage to locate an assortment of cookie cutters. I ended up rolling out the dough with a length of metal pipe we had leftover from a project. No pictures of that I'm not sorry to say.

Showing off our creations. It was some serious decorating.
Dave used a Santa cut out - turned it upside down and decorated it to look like an ornament. Not to be outdone Becky made a pun cookie. The circle cookie decorated to be Joy to the World.
Beth and Christy - he was a good sport playing games and hanging out with us all.
