Sugar cookies for Father's Day!

After family pictures on Saturday (which we still have to make a post for), we came back home with my brother and his family and decided to cook some garlic shrimp and bake some sugar cookies. Both treats were delicious! Even Emily had some of the juice from the shrimp sauce with rice (She hates the texture of shrimp!).

The cookies were for father's day on Sunday. We went up in the canyon and cooked bratwurst with Victor and Amanda and her father! It was really fun, but we actually had a hard time finding a good spot because the canyon was FULL of families celebrating!

While baking Luke was sitting on the table and dived inside the bowl that held the dough and knocked the flour container off the table. Gladly it landed on the chair right side up. The most damage was a startled baby with a little flour on his face and hair!

Nathaniel's favorite part was cutting the cookies into hearts! He didn't like to touch the dough until we showed him how fun it was! Then he was playing with it like play dough! He had lots of fun.

He was super concentrated trying to get it right, which he did! :)


(You can see in this picture how Luke could fall forward and knock the flour off the table!)

Luke has been getting into everything lately, it is like he CANNOT keep his hands to himself, but not only that, he is also into his feet! As the following pictures depict it.

Wow! You are SO lucky that flour didn't fall. That would have been quite a mess! Luke is so cute! I love the pictures when he stares right at the camera. He is getting so big.
