Dylan and Lexie always look forward to cookie baking day, but Lily wasn't too impressed.
The kids got to work, while Lily watched, and eventually fell asleep.
Once the cookies were cut out and put in the oven, it was time for the best part!
Just as we do every year, Dylan and I were in charge of icing the cookies, and Lexie was in charge of the sprinkles!
And, just as it happens every year, the kids decided to quit and eat cookies while I finished up the job.
That's tradition...and I wouldn't like it any other way!
Now I'm hungry for cookies... maybe we should start a cookie tradition over here!
ReplyDeleteYum! I love baking holiday cookies! Lily looks so cute in her Halloween gear!
ReplyDeleteAwhh what a great tradition! =) Mmmm cookies!
ReplyDeleteI love your cookie cut out days! We only do it for Christmas but I like to see all your pics for each holiday :) I will live through you, lol
ReplyDeleteSo fun!!
ReplyDeleteNow I feel like I need to make cookies.
What cute pictures! I want a cookie!
ReplyDeleteThat made me laugh! I was always the one to wrap it up and clean up too, but you're so right. That' perfectly ok! Your tradition is perfect!
ReplyDeleteYUM!! What a great tradition~~~!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun :)
ReplyDeleteI love traditions! Makes life and spending time with our children so special.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE sugar cookies! It's a good thing we only make them at holidays. My sweetie is the cubmaster now for the Cub Scout group so I made 72 cookies for Pack Meeting on Tuesday. Now we are making them for the Girl Scout meeting tomorrow. I've made 8 batches of sugar cookies this week!

ReplyDeletelove this tradition and the pics! So sweet and festive :)
ReplyDeleteI gotta let my boys destroy my kitchen with cookie dough one of these days, but I'm such a neat freak I'm afraid I'll flip out when I see flour and dough all over the place! Ha!
Cute idea...I love how they are wearing Halloween themed outfits while baking Halloween cookies :) I also like hoe Lexie has her little figurines lined up, as if she is showing them how to bake. So cute!
ReplyDeleteStrawberry Shortcake, an oldie, but goodie. So glad she decided to make a come back :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun tradition. I think I might start doing that this year with J. He's only 2, but he loves to help me out in the kitchen. Thanks for the inspiration :)
ReplyDeleteI think that look on her face is hys-TER-ical!
ReplyDeleteYAY for Halloween fun, even if it feels like too much.
I would love to start that tradition too! Yum!
