Christmas gifts for friends

This year for Christmas we went simple and the kids loved it cause it was simple enough that they did most of it.
 
First we made these easy treats with waffle shaped pretzels, peppermint kisses and m&m's. Cover a cookie sheet with wax paper, place pretzel on them and then put a kiss on each pretzel. Heat the oven at 170 degrees and leave in for 6 min....just long enough to make them soft but not melt). Put an m&m on each one and cool in fridge for 5-10 min (or outside on the back patio if you live somewhere cold like Utah) :-) Then we put them in treat bags and attached this cute little saying to them with a ribbon. Loved the idea...found it on sugardoodle.com :-)

While I was in NC I saw this cute "Joseph, Mary and Jesus" statue and knew that it is what I was going to make for gifts this year for friends. Once again....very easy and very cute. The kids really enjoyed painting them and putting them together. We are delivering them tonight with a Christmas carol to each family. Gotta go! Merry Christmas to all!
