She's Soooo Sweet

Every year we make a decorate Halloween sugar cookies. Clara was so excited to make them this year. She loves to help out in the kitchen. It was so funny to watch her decorate her cookies. She would first start out with a plan for a face--M&M eyes a candy corn nose etc. Then she would look at her cookie and realize she could fit more candy on it. So she would add some cheeks some buttons some hands until the cookie was covered. She is a candy nut. She begs for candy all day. When Grandma comes over the first thing she says is "do you have any candy?" If she ever is in a situation where there is a lot of candy she will eat and eat. I try not to restrict her too much because I don't want her to become too obsessed. It's hard though when she hardly will touch her meals. So anyways she was in heaven making and EATing these cookies. I am a little worried she's going to go into a sugar coma Halloween night.

It seems like such a long time ago. If you're anything like me, having kids has fried my memory! haha I will pass on your blog to Tamara, I bet she'd like to see it. Your kids are adorable!

We are in Clinton, it's pretty close to Roy & Layton. I'm glad you remembered me, I was beginning to wonder. haha Anyway, it's fun to reconnect through blogs, so cool to see how everyone has turned out and the beautiful families that they have. I was wondering what your sister Bobbi's up to? I know that she and my sister Cheryl were good friends.
