Cookie and Play Day

Kelli (my daughter in law) and I have started a fun "tradition" of having a "Cookie/Play Day"...we set aside a day for making "grammie cookies" for any special occasion or a holiday. We with the help of Anabelle and Brady make cut out sugar cookies. It is such fun!! I roll the dough out (after the kids have spread the flour on the cutting board of course)then they press their cookie cutters into the dough....once on the cookie sheet they put the "pretty sprinkles" on with the help of mommy. After the cookies are made (or like today...before we made the cookies) we play games. It is so much fun!! Today we played "hide and seek" (Anabelle and I had the BEST hiding place!!), after that we played Hi Ho Cherry-O and then a Dora Alaphabet game. We took time out for a snack of apples and bananas and just had the best fun and best day! We also had a phone call from Aunt "Wissa" and Anabelle and Brady had a nice chat with her....we had a busy fun day. My grandchildren are the BEST!! And they never cease to amaze me at what they have learned. And a hug and a kiss from a grandchild is by far the best thing a grandparent can receive....
