Cookie Day

Below are a few photos from the Rice Krispies Ornament Cookies from this year's Cookie Day. We got off to a slower start than normal on these cookies. There was a discrepancy on exactly how warm they should be whenever we attempted to convert them from Rice Krispies Treats to ornament. Eventually we figured it out.



(I caught this photo of Christopher in mid shake of the sprinkles for the cookies. Didn't think to stop the child from making the mess, just thought the moment should be captured....)

Pops' Birthday

Happy Birthday Pops! It was great to hang with you and the rest of the family at the winery.

Trip to Wisconsin

After the election, it was time to head north for a brief reprieve in Wisconsin. Thanks for the hospitality and really good food while at Camp Gray, Jeff and Rebecca.

Trick-or-Treaters

Our two little trick-or-treaters really got into the excitement of it all this year! Clara enjoyed flapping her wings as a butterfly fairy and Christopher became quite a convincing Jedi - the good guy of course! He enjoyed taking on the little Darth Vaders in the neighborhood to light saber duels. Clara found her calling by giving candy out with Granny and mama. "Kids! Candy! More!" she would call. Lots of fun and just the right amount of candy!
