Thank you Johnny B!

One may look at the photo below and think, "Oh that playdough looks like fun". Well that person would be half right. Only half right because it was a lot of fun, but the four piles of color are actually balls of colored sugar cookie dough. This fall John was selling some items to raise money for his DECA club and found this fun cookie dough in the catalog.
Being the "nice" brother that he is, he asked me if it would be a fun birthday idea for Gracie. I thought she would love it so we tried it. I still think she would've loved it for her birthday, but being the family we are, we forgot about it. When I went to the freezer during the last snow day, I discovered it. SCORE!! What a perfect activity for such a blizzardy day.

Here is what the dough actually looks like before you roll it out and cut out shapes.


And the finished product. These are just a few of the cookies that were made.

All in all we had a fun time using the dough. We did have some trouble convincing Jaylen that it was not playdough and he COULD NOT eat all the dough.
Thank you John for the great idea and for the fun you provided us when it was just too cold to go outside. We had a great day.
