Cookies!

On a recent snowy Sunday, while Ryan locked himself in the basement studying for finals, the boys and I committed ourselves to baking cookies all day!  I picked two treats that they could both be involved in making. 
The first treat required placing pretzel squares on a baking sheet and then topping each one with a Hersey Kiss.  After baking for only several minutes you place an M&M on top.
The second treat was a shortbread cookie recipe which the boys pressed in sprinkles.  After each cookie Logan pressed he would look at the glittery cookie and say, "Wow!"




Then, after naps and a big kitchen clean-up, we set out in the snow to deliver the cookies to our neighbors.  Hayden enjoyed being pulled on a saucer and timid Logan wished to be carried.  It was a fun time!
