Cookie Walk

Today we went on a walk that the historical society sponsored to help raise money for the Crosse House restoration. This wasn't just any walk, it was a walk to collect cookies! We paid $3 for a box that we decorated and then we walked around to 17 different businesses downtown to gather our cookies. It was a wonderful family time, the snow was falling and Avery was running around all bundled up. Venus even enjoyed the time as many business owners let her come inside too. She snuck a few treats here and there. At the end of the walk, we were greeted by Santa and Avery didn't even cry. He was excited because Santa had a candy cane for him.

This was the beginning of our craft project. Avery loved swimming in the puff balls.


Our cookie man (the box, not Avery).


Avery wanted to pull the nose off.


Here are all our cookies. Paco is excited to hold them in his belly. (For those of you who've never met Paco, he's our cookie jar in the picture).
