It's been so gloomy lately. Thursday was a day that Ava and I had planned to go up to Grandma's to make cookies and lucky for us and our drive up there, it was a crisp, clear day. It was so warm and cozy in Grandma's house and the smell of sugar cookies filled every room. Sweet woman she that she is, she left literally a handful of dough for Ava to make her own cookies, and that's just what she did the minute we got there.
Grandma was so patient with Ava. Flour was everywhere, including on Ava's face and Grandma just went with it! Ava seriously made her own cookies! She rolled them, used the cookie cutter and put them on a tray to go in the oven, and then of course, she decorated them and ate half the sprinkles and frosting along the way!
It was really sweet to watch Ava bake with Grandma. I was just an observer with a camera. They were in their own little world. The end result was deliciously buttery, so I steered clear, but we brought some home for Ava and her little friends.
Thanks for a really nice afternoon making cookies, Grandma. We love you
Another exciting event: Ava gets to have a chocolate every morning until Christmas! Yipeee!
6 more days to go!
