Baking with the Ladies...and a few gents

Tara sent an email a few weeks ago asking to start a new family tradition of getting together to make goodies for the families. I thought it was a great idea. I have always wanted to do something like this. Good for her for implementing the idea. We all got together at her house to bake, bake, bake. Originally it was just going to be the girls but Mac and Brock really wanted in on the fun so they came too. The fellas all went and played basketball and hung out.
While they hung out we got our baking on.  We made a lot of treats some yummy and some, well, not.  I totally forgot to put salt in my cinnamon rolls so they tasted awful.  Everyone had a great time though.  That's what matters most...right!?! 
Elsie and Brock had a hay day in the flour.  Yikes, where are their parents.  I am still having guilt for letting her do it.  It was just too cute to see them playing together in the flour.  Poor Tara and her kitchen.  (I haven't forgotten that I owe you a bag of flour.)  All the girls pitched in and helped a ton.  Emma pretty much did the cinnamon rolls herself.  I felt bad that she put so much work into the cinnamon rolls and her prego momma forgot the salt. 
Here is what you get when the kids have had way too much sugar.
Still darling.
We can't wait until next year.
Aprons for sure!
