IF YOU GIVE A MOUSE A COOKIE

IF YOU GIVE A MOUSE A COOKIE, HE'S GOING TO ASK FOR SOME MILK!
YES, AFTER DINNER TONIGHT WE MADE COOKIES. WE LET CARTER SIT AT THE TABLE WITH HIS OWN GLASS OF MILK AND DIP HIS COOKIES! HE HAD THE BEST TIME AND SO DID I! IT WAS SO FUN TO WATCH HIM DIPPING AND THEN EATING ONE AFTER THE OTHER! ANOTHER PRICELESS MOMENT !

AFTER DINNER AND COOKIES, WE WENT OUT FOR A LIL STROLL AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD! WE DIDN'T GET TO FAR WHEN WE SAW OUR WONDERFUL NEIGHBORS CHASE AND LIA, AND OF COURSE SWEET ADORABLE MACI, OUTSIDE. WE STOPPED AND CHATTED WITH THEM FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES! ITS SO SAD THAT WE LIVE SO CLOSE TO OUR FRIENDS AND NEVER HARDLY EVER GET TO SEE THEM OR SPEND TIME WITH THEM! THAT HAS GOT TO CHANGE! AFTER TALKING WITH THEM AND CHASING CARTER FROM ONE END OF THE STREET TO THE OTHER, WE FINALLY GOT BOTH KIDS BACK IN THE STROLLER AND MADE OUR MILE WALK! SO NICE AND SUCH A BEAUTIFUL COOL EVENING! AFTER OUR STROLL, WE WENT TO THE BACKYARD AND ATE POPSICLES AND PLAYED ON THE SWING SET FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES! WE HAD A BLAST LIKE ALWAYS. CARTER LOVES IT WHEN I GET UP THERE ON THAT SLIDE WITH HIM! WE HAVE A GOOD TIME!
WE ARE HOPING WHEN THE WEATHER COOLS DOWN, WE WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE A COOKOUT WITH CHASE AND LIA AND BRAD AND AIMEE! WE HAVE JUST GOT TO FIND A DAY WE ALL CAN DO IT!
GOD HAS BLESSED US IN SO MANY WAYS AND I THANK HIM EVERY DAY!
GOD IS GOOD!
