Valentine's Day Cookies

Every year for Valentine's Day, my mom would make sugar cookies and each of us would get a big one with our name on it. It was always super exciting to have your own cookie, and I know I really looked forward to it every year. This year I was at my parent's house and my mom made cookies for all of us! I made and decorated one for her. Thanks for all the cookies, Mom!

Andrew after we took his cookie away. He had eaten half of it, and then Mike and I realized he really shouldn't eat the whole thing (especially since he hadn't eaten dinner yet.) As you can tell, he was definitely not pleased.

Oh yeah!


He couldn't even wait until he sat down to start in!

And me. I'm definitely going to keep up this tradition with our own little family. It's just so fun!

That is such a great tradition! I made chocolate chip cookies for my kids this year, but the cookie with their names on it sounds neater!
