Halloween Baking.

The kids and I decided to make some yummy halloween cut out cookies to take to Omaha with us.  Landon, Kadence, and I used to do things like this all the time and I realized I hadn't been as good about letting them help since Kenzie has been old enough to want to help.  Landon had the day off school and I figured this would be a perfect project while daddy was at work.  I thought I had a sugar cookie mix in my cupboard which would have made life a bit easier, but I didn't so we did everything all home made.  This is quite the task with 3 little ones.  It was so hard to keep Kenzie from eating the cookie dough.  She tasted it once and then just wanted to eat it all!  I mean, can you blame her?  

After I frosted the cookies I let the kids decorate them.  I gave Kenzie 2 of her own to decorate. She was so excited I don't think she stopped smiling the entire time...

 until I had to take them away from her.  I knew this was going to happen.  Eating and endless amount of sprinkles while playing in frosting.  Who would ever want to stop?

Once I had snapped a few pictures it only took a quick distraction to be on to the next thing.  We had fun making cookies but after we were done I did not want to look at another cookie.  Unfortunately, I quickly got over that feeling and ate way too many over the weekend.  Yum!
