CookieCrazie's Week in Review

_________________________________________________

Personal Side

Home from Italy.....and very happy.

It was a rewarding trip......but I'm SUPER content to be home.

I just got my house completely decorated for Christmas in the last two days.

It was my goal to get this done as soon as I got home.

Success!

Now I've got cookies to decorate, a holiday to celebrate.......and so much more to do.

Instagram photos for this week:

Quilting for Christmas....

Fun with the Cookie'sCool poster.....

Cookie Friends!!

Gingerbread Christmas from last year....

It's a MERRY day.
We finished our work at CookiesCool today.....and I'm going HOME soon. :)
And when I get home, I get to start decorating for Christmas.

I thoroughly enjoyed spending this week with this group of ladies.
We had a blast sharing our cookie love with our students!

Goodbye Genoa!
It was lovely to see your beauty.....even on a rainy day

Happy Tuesday!
We are headed HOME today. 😊
Here's to a long day of travel.

Jill & Joe's Wedding: Family Memories

My oldest daughter, Jill, married Joe on September 13, 2014.

As I said in my earlier post this year when my youngest daughter, Allison, got married.....

"As I ponder all the wonderful memories.....I share some photos of the day with all of you.

Since my blog "family" has become a part of my every day life, it seems only fitting

that I would share such an important day with you. :)"

Jill made her own bouquets the day before the wedding.

She would want me to tell you that even though they turned out beautiful and saved lots of money, "don't try this for your wedding".......more stress than she bargained for. ;)

They pledged their lives to each other in a beautiful ceremony
including their own personal vows to each other.

Here's all ten of my "children" together in one big happy photo.
I treasure this!

Oh how I love this girl!

Jill wanted a "cookie bar" for her reception.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree......

Personal Side

Exciting week.
Left on Tuesday to fly to Genoa, Italy.
Cookie'sCool is happening this weekend.
I'm having a BLAST with my friends Julie Usher, Liz Adams, and Stephanie Kappel.
Taught my first cookie class today......so amazing.
Boy do I love teaching other cookiers and sharing lots of fun tips with them.
It's LATE here....and we have another full day tomorrow.
Much love from this beautiful place....

Christmas Scene..... I can't wait to share the entire collection.
(And with this morning's 20° temps, that fireplace sure could come in handy. ;))

The gingerbread family is staying warm in their house for now. :)

One of those projects you've thought about for a long time.....and finally it's as you wanted.

Oh Christmas.....I love so much about you.
I'm excited for your arrival!

Look who I get to travel with to Italy......Julia Usher!
Here we go to have some cookie fun in Genoa.

First glimpses of Genoa, Italy.... 

Good morning from Genoa, Italy.

Pretty little white poinsettia from last year's Christmas cookies....
