Sunday Sweets: Peanut Butter-Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Happy Easter friends!  You've probably had your fill of chocolate eggs and bunnies, but here's a great Sunday Sweet for ya:)

I love these cookies!  L-O-V-E!

I found this recipe a few years ago and whenever I feel like baking cookies to just have as a special treat for the kids, this is what I make.

I randomly wrote the recipe on this piece of paper and I've lost it half a dozen times, but it always manages to resurface.  I re-found it last weekend and since the ingredients are pantry staples, we whipped a batch up.

I found the recipe and actually wrote it down wrong...a little too much salt.

The Brown Eye Baker has a lot of other great recipes, so be sure to check out!

This last time I baked them I used dark brown sugar because I heard it adds more flavor...honestly, I didn't notice a difference.

My helpers loved them from start...

...to finish:)

Bounce House Birthday

I'm almost a week late on posting this fun birthday!

We celebrated with Emma last weekend at the bounce house for her 5th birthday, the kids had a blast.

It was the perfect energy zapper for a wintery spring in Michigan.  The kids were running, jumping and sliding like crazy.

There were some ride on toys that Wills was obsessed with.  After Emma's cousin Walton showed him the restart button, he was hooked!

Each and everyone of these girls were CRAZY for Emma.  They swarmed her like bees on honey to give her their gifts.  Lauren patiently waited, and may have been last but we know she certainly wasn't least:)

With William celebrating a birthday and then Emma, Miss Lauren has been talking non-stop about her birthday.  When is it coming?  Is it my birthday today? Can I get a Sleeping Beauty dress?  Can I have a pool party and wear a bikini?  Will Emma be there?  I can't wait to show Max my bikini?  

Umm, what was that?  For some reason, we've gone through a lot of wine this week:)

Thanks for including us in the celebration Emma!!

XOXO
