Hurricane Sandy was about to hit, so we got our craft on! We had candles stocked, water stored, and warm clothes, despite the picture, ready at hand. 





The girls clearly chose their own wardrobe for cookie decorating....but below is the finished product! 

A successful and fun endeavor, despite the mounds of sprinkles that couldn't help but topple off the cookies and onto the counter. 

We did lose power, eventually, but only for just under 24 hours and we felt so lucky! The girls camped in our room and then life went on as usual....so fortunate given the masses  whose lives are still not back to normal and won't ever be the same again.
