Aunt Anna's Famous Cookies

Tonight, my in laws came over to hang out and they brought with them cookie dough.  It was not just any cookie dough, but it was Aunt Anna's Famous Sugar Cookie Dough.  As the kids were watching Grandma roll out the dough, Grandma told them the story of how Aunt Anna, who happened to be one of Harry's aunts, always made these cookies and they would get them every year at Christmas.  She didn't have kids of her own, so she loved to spoil the nieces and nephews and she did a great job with it.  She always would get them a little something and ALWAYS had these special famous sugar cookies.  The kids loved the story and of course loved the cookies, rather it be the raw dough or the baked goods. :)
I lost count of how many times Christian said, "I eat this piece?" and Grandma would say, something about it not being good for his belly but he could have a little piece and then later this was repeated. :)  Fun memories.
