Cookie Decorating!

Yesterday some friends came over for a cookie decorating party! We had lots of fun! (And lots of sugar, too!)

I got up early and made 4 batches of cookie dough. (I didn't know how much I would need!) Kelly came over in the morning to help me make the cookies and get everything set up. We decided to stop making cookies after 3 batches of dough because we had PLENTY of cookies at that point. I couldn't have gotten everything ready without Kelly's help. Thanks, Kelly!


We had lots and lots and lots and LOTS of cookies, and we had different colors of icing. Some icing had a hint of lemon flavor, and some had a hint of strawberry flavor. We also had lots of toppings for the cookies: many different kinds/colors of sprinkles, Valentine M&M's, and mini-gummy bears! (The gummy bears were definitely a hit with the kiddos!)


And then the fun began! Ledys came with Sophia ...

and Olivia. Claire liked playing with Olivia for a bit.

Amy came with Emily.

Vicki and Kelly decorated lots of cookies!

Nora demonstrated her creativity by making a double-decker cookie (with icing, sprinkles, more icing, and more sprinkles) and by piling on lots of toppings!

Nate had fun playing most of the time. He was the big boy at the party! And Sophia liked wearing Claire's petti-skirt!

Nate said "cheese!!!"

We had a lot of fun, and we decorated lots and lots and lots of cookies! These are all the ones left - AFTER everyone else had taken theirs home!
