Thanksgiving Cookies

Thanks to Jamie's(my sis-in-law's sis-in-law) festive Thanksgiving blog post. The boys and I got to decorate sugar cookies like little turkeys in preparation for Thanksgiving. It was a lot of fun. Tyler even enjoyed going to three separate stores to find all of the necessary ingredients, who knew candy corns and mini m&ms would be so difficult to find.

Yes, Chase has a tattoo. I am ashamed to say that the other day when we were at Taco Bell Tyler and Chase whined, begged, and bullied me to get them stickers-ok I knew they were tattoos. They were horrible, monster, white trash tattoos, too. :) Thankfully they have almost been washed completely away.

Tyler really enjoys being creative. I mean check out the fridge behind him. It is covered with things he has been doing in school.

I think that the thing Chase most enjoyed about this activity was definitely eating all the candy corns.

What a cute smile!!!!

Here is the end result...I think the boys did a really good job.

This next part is a little sad. I will just call it the turkey cookies untimely demise...

Chase accidentally dropped his completed cookie in his lap. You can see the cookie on the chair and one of the turkey's eyes ended up on Chase's leg. I didn't think Chase would take it so hard...

Poor little guy...don't worry we fixed the cookie and the story ended well. :) All we had to do was replace the turkey's fallen eye and the tears stopped immediately.
