Besties & Babies

Happy Friday!

Do you have one of those friends who you've known for years, and no matter what you go through they are always there for you?  I hope that you do!

My sweet friend Kristin and her husband Kenny asked me to make cookies for their gender reveal party.  I was tickled to do this for them because of my long friendship with Kristin.

After looking through Pinterest, I came across this picture.


Even though it wasn't specifically a gender reveal cookie, I liked the idea of the "surprise" in the center.  I went ahead and baked three dozen vanilla almond cookies the weekend before the party, so that all I would have to do was put in the blue or pink sprinkles.

I iced a dozen of the cookies that would be the "lid".  The idea was to ice 6 of them blue and 6 of them pink so the guests could pick which they thought Baby K would be.

On Wednesday before the party I got a text.  It was a GIRL!  I rushed to the store after school and picked up PINK sprinkles.  I was so excited and needed to document the occasion.


The cookies turned out cuter than I imagined in my head!  The only thing that I didn't think about before was rolling them thinner than I normally do since they were triple stacked.  







Thanks to Repeat Crafter Me for the picture and great cookie idea!!

Stay sweet & enjoy the weekend!
