Notes: Mother (Lura Carico) would mix the cookie dough and Daddy (Dillon Carico) and Kathryn Carter Foster would make these at Christmas. He would roll and cut them and Kathryn would decorate. Daddy would get frustrated with Kathryn as she would take too much time in decorating. We continue this tradition now only Kathryn rolls and cuts and the great- grandkids decorate. We have also added Bernell, Beth, Jaime, & myself to the mix. It is very messy.....but we have so much fun and I know Mother and Daddy would be proud that we continue this.
