Criss Cross

April and May were just C.R.A.Z.Y...too many Cross cookies to count (I was going "cross" eyed)!!  I was so thankful for all of the Communion orders, but I thought my hand was going to fall off!

I needed an order to get my creative juices flowing...and as luck would have it, I got one!  Now, this did end up being a Communion order, BUT unique.  I had a customer who contacted me and gave some unique descriptions of her son (nicknames, interests, etc)...and here was my creation:

Karate Frogs!!

 

This young man (nicked name froggy as a baby), was not only celebrating his Communion, but also he orange belt in karate!!  Congratulations!! 

 

 

(For those of you who know me, you know that I love frogs...so this was especially fun for me).

Oops...

Okay, we're going to forget the last few months happened.  I've been a pregnant, chaotic mess.  We now know that Pea #4 will be a girl, and she is due to arrive on October 4th (at least, that's when the C-section is scheduled).  All of the peas are excited, especially Pea #1 because she will now have a sister.  Our family will now end in a tie...2 boys and 2 girls (well, unless you count the dog...then girls win!). 

So, the past few months have revolved around lots of cookie orders!  I will get to all of them, but I will start with the end of the school year...

I decided to make my daughter's teachers some fun cookies as part of their gifts.  As usual, Sweet Sugarbelle has AMAZING ideas and tutorials, so I looked to her blog for inspiration.  She never lets me down...here is one of her posts on the cute cookies I made...

The apple cookies needed a little something extra, so I made some caterpillars.  I LOVED the "Bookworm" cookies and just had to try them!  So fun!

Over the next couple of weeks, I will add more of my cookie creations.  Thanks for looking!
