Sweet Valentine!

Our dear Aunt Mary invited Stacy and I and the babies over to her house Valentine's Day morning to make and decorate sugar cookies! We cut the dough into hearts of all sizes and then decorated them with white, pink and red icing, and of course, lots of sprinkles! Drew and Whitley really did a great job! I was surprised at how quickly they understood and followed the different steps, and we all had a wonderful time! We've already decided it needs to be a yearly tradition!
Whitley watches carefully as Aunt Mae Mae rolls out the dough...
Drew was excellent at creating the cookie cutouts, spacing them all out just right!
But perhaps the most fun was playing in the Gundies' boat while the cookies baked. Drew drove, and the two cousins just laughed and laughed...

Whitley was definitely most adept at icing the hearts. She knew just what to do! (And only ate a little bit of icing...)

Drew and Stacy get into the sprinkles.
The food of our labors! I think it goes without saying that the prettiest ones were made by moi! hee hee (I just wrote that to make you mad, Stac!) Thanks, Mae Mae!!! Love you!!
