Cookies

Baking cookies is always a fun summer activity... both in the process of making the cookies and then getting to eat them! On Saturday I let the kids make oatmeal raisin cookies as their activity. You should have seen their faces light up at the word cookie. I happened to have all the ingredients on hand so it was very easy to do. I let them mix the ingredients and then plop the dough onto the cookie sheet. They didn't really enjoy touching the dough because it was kinda sticky so eventually I used my cookie dough scoop so nobody's hands would get "icky". After they baked came the best part, eating cookies! Heidi asked me, "is this your way of sneaking oatmeal into my body." My response, "yep, you got me!" I love my kids!
