Good Friends

Our stake daddy daughter dance is this Saturday. We have been planning and preparing. We were stumped on what to do for dessert for nearly 150 people. We decided that churros were just too hard to keep fresh and warm, ice cream was hard to serve quickly and store, and cookies were the best option because they could be prepared in advance.

Melody found these darling sombrero cookies online. We emailed some of our friends and within a couple hours we had over 15 people willing to bake 2 1/2 dozen sugar cookies for today when Melody and I would decorate them.

Aaron held down the fort with the kids and soccer practice, including Noah's first practice with his team, which Aaron is coaching. Mary went to play at her darling friend Emi's house before practice. I did a bit of carpooling and errands. Nikki loved joyschool again. 

All day during the hustle and bustle my kitchen filled with deliciousness, all our friends dropping off cookies. Melody came and we worked hard, running out of sprinkles faster than you can believe. Two friends and my mom offered to come over late to help decorate them. We had a great time. There was a lot of love that went into these treats.
