Edit: We have a winner!!   Allison Andrews was the first to get it right. Woohoo, Allison!

On Sunday afternoon, our family made frosted Christmas cookies.   Some were the classy sort.

And some were not.

(This is what happens when you buy eyeball packs after Halloween.   They always come packaged with bones.)

I posted a hilarious candy cane cookie with eyes on instagram but apparently I didn't catch that one with my SLR.

So, about the cookie guessing part of this post....

This is our third year, so I guess it's become a bit of a tradition around here.

The first year, you all just guessed for fun, but last year, I threw in a $50 Amazon card to sweeten the deal, and this year I'm doing the same thing.

I don't know that anyone has gotten it completely right in past years, but if you think looking at previous games will be helpful, here are the links:

Mr. FG decorated cookies with us again (we used to do it while he was at work until a few years ago, but it is way more fun with him added into the mix!)

And Sonia was there, but somehow, I have zero pictures of her.   Hmm.

Alrighty.

Here's how this will work.   There are six cookie decorators, listed here in age order so as to avoid giving any hints:

Mr. FG
Kristen
Joshua
Lisey
Sonia
Zoe

To make it easy for me to see if you've gotten the answers right, list your guesses like so:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

The first person to get the answers right wins the Amazon gift card.

Ready?

Set?

Go!

The winner!

Ok, guys, we have a winner.   Allison Andrews was the first to get it right.   Yay!   Here are the correct answers.   So many of you were super-duper close, just mixing up two cookies.

I love Zoe's snowman...he looks so confused.    And Joshua's Christmas tree is just SO him.   It reminds me a lot of his doodles.

And I thought Mr. FG's polar bear was the most creative thing that happened cookie-wise this year.   😉

Thanks for playing along, you guys!   We always have fun picking out which cookies we want to put in the contest.

  7. All the cookies seem to be looking around, a bit wary of their surrounding, as if they "know" what is coming.

    I just want to add that cookies 1,2,3, and 5 look worried about being eaten, cookie 6 looks like it's headed to the loony bin and cookie 4 looks like it won't be eaten without a fight.

  111. This is such a fun tradition! (And I also love how the flat mouths make everyone's cookies look a little wistful ("I know I'm going to get eaten, so I suppose I'll just try and enjoy Christmas while I can ...")

    I like the flat mouths; it makes them look a little hesitant, like they're not totally committed to this whole "I'm a cookie, eat me" idea...
