Pumpkins, Playdates and Apple Crisp

These might be some of my favorite cookies i've made thus far.  They turned out so cute!  They were for a sip 'n see for baby Kate.  


 Ryan is growing up so fast!  He had his first real playdate today.  He's had many playmates where we get together with our friends and play and socialize but today he went home with his friends Jillian and Natalie after preschool.  He played all afternoon at their house and had the best time.  I enjoyed spending quality time with Colton.  This is a bad picture below but this was Ryan and Natalie chill in on the couch when I came to get him.  Too funny!


So I mentioned the other day that we went over to our friends house on sunday night.  I brought the most amazing and perfect Apple Crisp.  I've recently found this food blog called the-girl-who-ate-everything.com.  I LOVE it!  The apple crisp was amazing and so easy to make.  Definitely a must have fall dessert.
