Cookie Day

Our traditional bake cookies with Mamo day was fast approaching! The date was set, Auntie Valerie was coming into town, the recipes were picked and sprinkles were set and then... it snowed a foot in 6 hours. Oh dear! It was an adventure getting over the river and through the woods to Mamo's house but thanks to Grandpa and his 4-wheel drive we made it just in time!

The view from inside Mamo's wreath out to the crazy stormThere is a John Deere out there somewhere!
Waiting out the storm
The boys went outside to get some energy out while the cookies were baking. Their "babysitter" Keiko went with them since she thinks they are her puppies. She was not so thrilled with her puppies flying down a mountain. She would run up the hill with them, then down along side them and then stop them with her body before they got to the bottom. Hilarious!

As always in Colorado, the sun came shining through before the end of the day!
Aren't they pretty!?
Remember Auntie Valerie's Mickey hat? Alex just had to wear it for a while.
