Cookie Jars!

How hard is it to find red and green m&ms this time of year? Harder than you think! We found that out the other night when we ran out of m&ms for the cookie jars we were working on. We finally found them at the 3rd store we tried.

I stole these pictures off Sherri's Facebook page!

We made those cookie jars with the dry ingredients layered in the jar so all you have to do is add the couple other ingredients and you've got yummy homemade cookies! We put Christmas fabric and tied on the recipe around the top. They turned out great!


Sherri and I putting the first layer down in our jars.
Things like these are always more fun with a friend!
We had a good time.

The first layer was brown sugar...
We had about 2 dozen jars to fill.
While we were filling the jars Lili kept Elijah under control...
Good girl, Lili! Keep him right there! =)
