Tonight is Cookie Baking Night. In attendance this evening: Allison, Rylar, and Enzo. Just the four of us tonight. Clara has taken ill with an infection and has been spending some time in a Rehab Center, recovering and regaining her strength. Larry is there visiting her tonight. Greg is working at the MN Fair. Ethan and Carissa are attending an open house for school. And Emily is out being a 16 year old with one week of summer vacation left. We had to cancel last Cookie Baking Night because of Clara's illness, so tonight we combined two birthday choice nights. Enzo turned 4 years old on the 15th, and Allison turned 7 years old on the 20th. For supper, Allison chose blueberry pancakes with whipped cream and strawberries, bananas, and stawberry milkshakes. Enzo chose "fishies" aka cheese fish crackers. For Allison's cookie, she chose "blueberry cookies" and Enzo chose "yellow cookies".
For the "blueberry cookie" we used sugar cookie dough and added chocolate covered blueberries to the mix.
For the "yellow cookie" we made sugar cookies, and Enzo used yellow food coloring to turn the frosting yellow.
For our Bible lesson tonight, we read from our old favorite "Leading Little Ones to God" by Marian Schoolland. We read lesson #52 titled God's Children are New Creatures, taken from 2 Corinthians 5:17 "If any man be in Christ, he is a new creation". We talked about what it means to have a clean heart and how we can have that through Jesus Christ.
As part of the birthday choice, we also walked to the local gas station for a treat.
As usual, a fun time was had by all.
