Baking Day!

Emma Taylor came over Saturday morning for our annual baking day.  We've been doing it for several years and I'll do it as long as she's interested.  The boys lost interest long ago!

Aprons on and ready to go!  She took this selfie for us.


She always likes making the Spritz.  The cookie gun is so much fun!





Packing up the cookies.


We also made these chocolate oatmeal cookies.  They really aren't cookies but are cooked on the stove.  Really good though!


She stopped for a little break and cocoa with lots and lots of whipped cream and a peppermint stick.


We made Pretzel Treats, of course.


And Gingerbread Snaps.


And we called it a day!  She packed up cookies for her family and Ben and Cameron but left a few for us!! 

Emma Taylor really is a big help in the kitchen.  Such good experience for her and I sure do enjoy spending time with her!

Doesn't she look adorable in her new glasses?  I rarely get to see her wearing them as usually she only wears them at school.  I love them!

My brother-in-law is doing great!  So thankful for answered prayers.  He is in rehab now and is progressing well. 

I will be going to Birmingham tonight with my sister Karen and niece Paige.  Paige is having foot surgery tomorrow on a bunion on her foot.  This is a re-surgery as she had surgery on both feet when she was in high school and one is again giving her problems.  Please keep her in your prayers tomorrow.  Hopefully they will send her home after the surgery if everything goes as planned! 

Sure hoping my niece Amy has a wonderful birthday today.  Knowing Amy, I'm sure she's got something fantastically fun planned!
