Tackle it Tuesday: Death and Taxes


Yep, that's right...my tackle it tuesday was taxes. Since Luke is the Accountant, HE got to do them, but since I am his noble sidekick, I was right there helping every step of the way (poor guy!:)



And...while Luke was at Scouts tonight...the kids (sick as they are :( and I made sugar cookies. They were yummy! Normally I am not one to do sugar cookies...I prefer good ole chocolate chip cookies, easy to make, don't really need any help making them, and you don't have to frost them. BUT, I decided that the kids needed something to do. So after about an hour of Dora (I was taking a nap-hehe!) We cut them out, baked them, and frosted 7. Yep, out of 20+ cookies (they are pretty small), we only frosted enough for them to have a taste, stick some sprinkles on...and then I sent them to bed. It is currently blissfully quiet in my home and I love it!

You're such a good mommy! I love to cook and bake with Sennika, but it's a nightmare when she isn't feeling good. Needless to say with all her sick drama the past month + it's been a long time since she's been in the kitchen (other than to hang on my legs while I'm cooking and cleaning!)

Wow! What a good mom you are....I think the last time I made sugar cookies was that one Valentine's day with you and your kids about 2 years ago. ;) Oops.

You guys do your taxes pretty early. Last time we did our taxes early, we forgot some stuff and ended up having to pay money. No bueno. :(
I'm not a big sugar cookie fan either. Like you, I'm a chocolate chip cookie lover.
Enjoy your quiet blissfulness while it lasts!
