This morning began with Spencer climbing onto my lap and saying, "I love you mom. I want to marry you." I asked, "Why do you want to marry mommy?" He answered, "You're so cute mommy!" I just hugged him tight and enjoyed the moment. He is growing up so fast, and sometimes I wish he would stay little forever.
Later in the day, we made our traditional Halloween cookies. Spencer and I made the sugar cookie dough while Taylor was at school. When Taylor came home, we made our favorite cream chesse frosting and then rolled out the cookie dough and cut fun Halloween shapes using cookie cutters. We then baked the cookies and finally decorated them. Every year we make these same cookies. It is a simple, but fun family tradition. I love being in the kitchen, baking with my children. They are so sweet, and looking at these fun pictures, I feel especially blessed today.

You really are so lucky to be a stay at home mom. Your children looked like they were pros trying to decorate the cookies. Way cute!
It is great to be home! I think about that every day and I am so glad I have a husband who understands how important that is to me! They are all getting big to quick, yours and mine! Haylee will be 7 next week!
