Red Rover, Frisbee, and other Cousinly Delights

Here we are at our fun picnic with the cousins. Abe is starting to really love being around his cousins (especially Katy and Adam), so he was happy, and Sam and Kenneth seem to be ready to break all kinds of frisbee records. Abe also played Red Rover for the first time, and I think he liked it. (Even though it ended with someone in tears . . . as always . . . it's still one of my favorite games---I always loved playing it in grade school.) I was happy because we brought Nana's "World's Greatest Cookies." Sebby was happy because there were lots of water sprinklers to count. And Malachi was happy because, well, because he's always happy. What a good baby.

Here is the cookie recipe (for you, Karen):
