The Divas hosted a Christmas cookie party for the kids at
SafeHouse this afternoon. We went into a baking frenzy the day before and ended up bringing 35 dozen cookies to be decorated. It was a wonderful day and all of us -- the kids, the moms and the Divas -- couldn't resist the pull of decorating sugar cookies.
It's the simple things.

Mmmmm... They made the shelter smell all Christmas cozy! |
 |
| You know, "Too many cooks in the kitchen..." That's our excuse and we're sticking to it. |
 |
| We had a little cookie icing mixing incident. |
 |
| But some of us came prepared. |

| The decorating in full swing. |
 |
| The kids seemed to be having so much fun. |
 |
| Even the Divas got in on the decorating action. Not sure who had more fun, us or the kids. |
