soccer sample cookies

i almost got a large order to do 200 mini cookies for little sister's soccer banquet.  by the time i dreamed up the designs and made a few samples, i learned that the board decided to go in another direction (hope everyone enjoys the italian ice...).  honestly, it's probably a blessing.  not sure how i would've done that many cookies in less than a month.  anyway, they sure turned out cute.  maybe next year.... ;-)

49 & holding...

 

happy birthday to our favorite daddy!  here's wishing he makes some great memories in the year ahead to finish out his fourth decade.

bluebonnets

one of my favorite traditions!  i have been tracking the readiness of our local bluebonnet spot for the past few weeks, and today it seemed ready as ever for our annual photo shoot. ;-)

as a special treat, grandma and her new puppy made a quick visit over the weekend.
