Ordinary Day

I really like this! Cherish the ordinary days! How simple to do and yet life is so busy we often forget about the ordinary! When I first started watching this and seeing all the pictures, I thought it was going to have a tragically sad ending - it doesn't, by the way. Just a simple reminder to cherish the time we have because it goes so fast and we aren't promised tomorrow! Be sure to pause the music at the bottom of my blog.

A fun snow day

Carter is ready to go out!
Campbell
Campbell just wanted to eat it!


What fun a snow day is! We watched it snow all afternoon yesterday and after the kids naps they got to play in it! Carter had the most fun throwing snow balls! And Campbell kept saying, "Ssssssnnnnnnooooowwww!" She loved it! We made delicious snow cream last night. This morning we played in the park and made a snowman there then came home and made another snowman. We have to make the most of these big snows because we may not see this much snow again for 5 more years! The snow is slowly melting and all will be back to normal soon. What fun adventures the snow can be!

I heart cookies!

I guess it is fair to say that I have been in a cookie mood lately! I made these cookies for Carter's Valentine's exchange for school tomorrow. We had a taste test with some leftovers and they were yummy!

First cookies

I have been wanting to make sugar cookies for a while now and finally had a reason to do them. I don't guess I really needed a reason but I didn't feel so bad eating them when I did have a reason to make them! Anyway, I made these football sugar cookies for a Super Bowl party. The big ones were for the adults and the little ones for the kids. They were a big hit! I have to say, for my first time ever making sugar cookies from scratch and the first time ever use a rolling pin; I think they turned out well! I am making heart sugar cookies for Carter's preschool class this week! Actually I already made them but accidentally left the uncooked ones sitting out all night; the heartbreak when I realized it and had to throw them away! Guess it was good practice!
