Making gingerbread men

Ava and I made gingerbread cookies for the first time the other day. I've never been a big fan of them, but this recipe was pretty good.
We have been having lots of fun doing Christmas projects. Next week we are going to do my favorite, Gingerbread houses!
Today we are headed to go see Santa. I'm hoping I can get a good picture of Ava and him, but I'm not holding my breath! She says she is going to sit on his lap so she can tell him she wants a green dinosaur that stomps.
