I'm so glad it's Friday!

Today is the last day of school for the kids until their Thanksgiving break.

I'm ready for Thanksgiving. There's going to be fried turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce (that only my hubby eats), green bean bundles.......the list goes on and on. We certainly have a feast.

Wanna know what I'm more interested in? Take a guess?

You got it.....the Dessert. It's the best part of the entire meal. That's why it's last. You always save the best for last. My favorite dessert is grandma's chocolate pie. You can find the

grandma's chocolate pie recipe

here. I'll be making two or three pies. That way I'll be sure there's enough....for me, just in case I want to enjoy more than one

pie

piece.

We'll also have cookies. Lots and lots of cookies.

Scarecrow cookies are great for Thanksgiving. Don't you agree?

I used my

snowman cookie cutter

from

Coppergifts

. They have fantastic cutters. I just took a circle cutter and trimmed off the top of frosty's hat before baking. I wanted the scarecrow to have more of a rounded hat.

To make these scarecrow cookies just follow the instructions below. I used a #2 tip for all of the outlining with the exception of the detail on the button eyes and the straw coming out of the hat. For those I used a #1 tip.

Are y'all ready for the big Thanksgiving feast? Is your favorite thing to eat dessert too?

Let's talk about babies.

I just can't get enough of my little man. He is so stinking cute. I swear by the time he is a year old he is going to be so sick of kisses from me. I think I kiss him like a million times a day. Really, it's that much.

It doesn't help that I'm his favorite person in the whole wide world.

Really, he told me himself this morning. He said mom, you're my favorite. It was totally in baby language, but I understand cooing perfectly clear. My husband will try to argue this with me because he thinks he's the baby's favorite person but, he's wrong.

He's wrong A LOT!

Since I'm his favorite person I have to hold him all the time. This is why my photographs are still dark. I haven't unpacked my cookie room stuff yet. Therefore my lights are still packed. It's a good reason to not be done....right?

Hold adorable baby or unpack cookie room? Hmmm that's a tough one.

Maybe I could have my husband unpack because he's NOT the favorite parent so he has more time to do things. Sounds good.

So now that you know why my pictures are looking less than acceptable, we can move on and decorate cookies.

Cute, sleeping baby face cookies. These are pretty simple to make. You can do the hats in any color you'd like. I went with blue and green because I'm all into boy stuff right now.
