GiGi's Visit

TO CLARIFY FOR MY FRIEND MELANIE: CADEN DIPPED HIS FINGERS IN THE SUGAR AFTER THE COOKIES WERE BAKED! THIS WAS LEFT OVER SUGAR SPRINKLES! HA!

Every year around Christmas Mom comes up to visit and we spend the weekend baking. This past weekend we had a blast! We baked until we could bake no more! Here is a sampling of what all we created!

Mom always makes Texas Trash, which I LOVE!Tim put in a request for Sand Tarts so Mom made those as well.We also made sugar cookies. Caden had a blast licking his finger and putting it in the colored sugar!Here he is dipping his little finger in the green sugar!He loved it and kept saying, 'More! More!'.Here he is sampling a green sugar cookie with GiGi.Here is my famous Crockpot Candy.

Here are my Buckeyes that I make each year as well.These are the Peanut Butter Krispies.Tim requested some Banana Pudding, so Mom made some for him and he loved it. It is almost gone already! After running around baking and shopping a little, Caden was ready for GiGi to read to him. He chose 'Charlie Brown's Christmas'.He loved it when GiGi was reading about Charlie Brown's tree. GiGi acted like she was crying and Caden kept looking at her.I caught him sneezing and thought this was cute!Here is GiGi and Caden on Saturday night. GiGi had to tell Caden bye when I put him to bed since she knew she would have to leave so early Sunday morning. Here she is explaining that she was going bye bye!

Thanks for coming up GiGi! We miss you already! We had a great time and cannot wait until next year!
