My kids love helping me in the kitchen! There is just something so special about being in the kitchen together. It has definitely been a way for me to spend quality time with Kaleb and Karmindy and hopefully make lasting memories with them! I hope they will always have pleasant memories of these times/traditions. One of our family traditions is to make Pumpkin shaped sugar cookies each year around Halloween. My mom made sugar cookies each year around Halloween and Valentines Day and I wanted to keep the tradition going in our family.With Kaleb being off track from school for the past couple of weeks, it was a wonderful afternoon activity to keep his mind and hands busy. (He is truly my little busy body.) Both Kaleb and Karmindy loved helping me roll out the dough and enjoyed using the cookie cutters. They also thought it was fun to smear flour on each other, which turned into a mini flour fight. We all had fun putting flour on our faces! This year we decided to get a little more creative and we used a ghost cookie cutter and a cat cookie cutters. All of the cookies turned out so cute looking. After baking and frosting them all, Mark, the kids and myself took a few around to neighbors (for Family Home Evening) to spread a little Halloween Cheer!
