Last friday we had a Christmas Party with Jake's Mom's side of the family, the Bronson's. They always just have pizza, pop, and dessert because it is pretty easy to do for such a large group. We had a white elephant gift exchange, Jake and I ended up with a Mint flavored chocolate orange and some men's musk body spray (both of us agreed to him never wearing). I was assigned to bring a dessert. Since Crystal Moeller and I had our annual "Crystal Squared Christmas Cooking" that Monday, it was perfect. I brought our Reese's PB mini cup cookies that we usually make and we made something new this year. Homemade Peppermint Oreos with holiday sprinkles. You guessed it, found on Pinterest. :) I think they turned out really yummy! Here are some pics of the evening:

Trying to get Ev interested in his new toy.
A little blurry but figured out how to make it go.
Mainly just wanted to play with other kid's toys.
