So today was supposed to be our First Annual Cookie Day, instead it was a crazy-busy-cram-a-lot-of-fun-things-into-one-day-with-our-aunts celebration! Aunt Dani and Aunt Joanna (and Aidan and Ciara) made the trip down and in less than 5 hours we:

  • Made sugar cookie dough, rolled it out and cut several cookies
  • Made some drop cookies and baked them all
  • Went on a trail ride (Danielle, Joanna and Kelsey) or a pony ride (Ciara, Aidan and me)
  • Cleaned up the kitchen after round one (Tim, Kyle)
  • Decorated (or more accurately...tasted) the cookies
  • Attempted to make homemade candy canes (and no, that was not successful, but it was close enough that I may try again this weekend, altering a few of the things we did to see if they come out better)
  • Celebrated Ciara's 4th birthday, since we won't see her this week

Not bad for one day. The best thing we made were memories (oh, and a big mess - we definitely made that, too). Thanks for coming down everyone!
