I'll tell my guess' in the comments section. Tell me what you think!

Cookies and Kites

We made scripture cookies for Family Home Evening. We looked up ingredients in the scriptures and then created our own cookies from it. My favorite, and pretty much the only ones I like are chocolate chip mint cookies. We always make a quadruple batch so that we can freeze a bunch of dough for later use.

Jared and the kids formed the cookie balls. It is funny because Jared showed Mackenzie, Alexis, and Eli how to form the balls and then gently squish them flat. The girls could do it but Eli's formed cookies were not so symmetrical, as you will see in the next photo.

Eli's cookie.

The Easter bunny also brought kites for the kids. They thoroughly enjoyed flying them once they finally got them in the air.

Jared managed to get Eli's Buz Lightyear kite up easily enough but it took many many many attempts to get the girls' Ariel kites up in the air. I told Jared the Buz is meant to fly and Ariel is meant to swim.

I love....

Messy faces from yummy treats!

When family comes to visit!

I love that I have been blesed with such a good life. I have an amazing husband who works hard and still has fun. I have beautiful children who are silly and keep me busy. I have a sweet collection of parents, siblings, and in-laws who I love to be around. I have the gospel of Jesus Christ which brings joy and peace of mind through my Savior!
