Cookie Monsters


We're hard at work with schooling, but here's a fond memory from our summer break. Mariah and Katie are making "Barefoot" cookies for Doug's old company picnic. Lots of flip-flops! We were staying with dear friends, the Browns, and Michelle let the girls help decorate the night before. It was so cool to be invited, even though Doug doesn't work for them anymore.

I left my purse in the car, so I didn't get any pics of the picnic, but they had awesome blow-up equipment, a snow cone machine, a cotton candy machine, and amazing prizes. It was a hot but beautiful day and we could see Kentucky on the other side of the Ohio River where we played. It was all green and gorgeous. A very fun weekend!

And as a P.S. for Velvet on my previous post: that was actually the sunrise on our way to Casper really early in the AM. But yes, I agree--very pretty. It made it harder to leave.

Thanks, Jo! Wish I could have seen you and Ellie, too. Next time!

E-They're sugar cookies cut with a little foot shaped cutter. The company name is Barefoot Advertising, so hence the cookies.

And yes, Vel...we ate. And ate. And ATE! Not only those cookies, but a whole amazing and tantalizing smorgasbord.
