You Must Really Like Sugar

Invitations the girls and I created by thumbprint for their first annual Crafts and Cookies Party.

The girls had a few of their sweet friends over from school to decorate ornaments and sugar cookies. A precious tradition our mom started for me and my sister as little girls. I thought my mom was amazing then, but now I know she is amazing. Without a doubt.

After 7 little girls (and a 1-year old baby boy) running around, painting ornaments, rolling, cutting, baking and decorating sugar cookies all afternoon, I.Am.Wiped. There are sprinkles all over our floors and paint all over the craft room, but the girls had such a great time!

At the end of our evening, I asked: "Piper, what was your favorite part of today?" Immediately she bursts, "Sticking my fingers in the icing and eating it!" Cue Buddy the Elf: "You really must like sugar, Buddy?" Piper loves sugar (and babies), if you'll recall.

Thank you mom for making our childhood chalked full of traditions and fun memories when it was certainly much easier "to not to" (Mater).
