Cool Picture and Happy Valentine's Day!!

Happy Valentine's Day! Unfortunately Emma and I are spending the day alone. Daddy is at the office all day studying for a big test he has on Tuesday. We will celebrate when his test is over. Good Luck studying Luke and Happy Valentine's Day, I love you.

I love this picture of Emma. We went to the Denver Aquarium right before I flew home a couple of weeks ago and she absolutely loved it! It was a lot of fun and really neat.

These are the best sugar cookies ever!!! I love making these sugar cookies. This is a recipe from Luke's grandmother. It was a school recipe so it is super huge! The recipe I have is half of the original and I always half the recipe and it makes a ton! If you like sugar cookies I would recommend making these, SO GOOD!!
