Halloween Cookies.

Nina and I decided to make some Halloween cookies. I wanted to dye the batter orange but when I poured the orange food coloring in, I realized from the smell that it was actually orange extract. Lack of sleep and seeing the color orange was enough for me to believe it was food coloring. So, oh well. It was very..... orangie... but surprisingly tasty. Nina decorated the cookies. Look at how well she did!!.....

Awesome right?

I wish those were our cookies. No no no no. Ours came out more like this:

I think one has an eyeball on it and the other has a finger. I was having a hard time finding decorations for cookies. No store had any. Guess we should have made cupcakes. That is on our list of things to do together. :)

This past weekend Nina and I went to my friend Nicky's son Mateo's football game. I took a ton of beautiful pictures of Nina and Nicky's other son Nicholas playing together. They were rolling around in the grass, running, hugging, laughing, giggling, holding each other, kissing each other. It was the most adorable thing I have ever seen. I couldn't get enough of it. So this Halloween, Nina and I are going to Nicky's house and her son Nicholas and Nina will both be pirates together. They are totally in love with each other and it will be cute to see them matching. Nina, when you are old enough to read all of these blogs and the many more that are sure to come, mark my words..... you and Nicholas are totally getting married one day. I will make sure to take a ton of pictures and post them up here. This is what Nina's costume will look like...

I know I know. I already know. I want to buy her every costume in the store and do a photo montage. You are so beautiful Nina.
