Choo Choo


Yesterday Hunter got tickets for Cooper & I to see Bolt (fabulous benefit of a son working at the theater). So, we went to the first matinee and it was a great movie. A definite compliment seeing as I don't really enjoy animated movies. Then we hopped over to WalMart and got all of our groceries & baking ingredients. When we walked outside we were suddenly transported to the center of a snowglobe. Beautiful, swirling white flakes glittered the ground but hadn't quite started compiling...perfect. We zoomed home to settle in for a winter weekend. Cooper decided to make the above train. I kneaded the frosting, set out the pieces, put the frosting in for the sleigh parts, put the frosting in for the reindeer. Kurt used the frosting to help decorate. Cooper put a little frosting here & a little frosting there. He put a little candy here and a little candy there and a lot of candy in his mouth and a bit of candy on the floor. Then, the masterpiece was complete.
Today, he started eating it. Good thing I got a picture.
ps. He wrote "I love Mom" in the snow. Santa loves that boy this year.
