Our Cookie is Two

To celebrate Eliza’s second birthday, we had a “milk and cookies” themed party.  This included twelve types of cookies (two courtesy of her grandparents) and a cookie sandwich cake.  Of course, I had to make a lot of decorations and utilize my mom’s expert sewing skills!

Table 1

We had three different kinds of milk available (2%, whole, and homemade chocolate – Kirk refused to serve skim), and we served them out of traditional glass jugs into glass Ball canning jars.

Eliza’s favorite cookie of the day was the chocolate spritz.  It was my favorite cookie growing up, and I’d always ask my grandmother to make them.  We aren’t sure how many Eliza grabbed throughout the party.  If I had known I wouldn’t have placed them so close to the edge of the table.

Eliza loved seeing some of her friends and family.  Thanks for celebrating with us!

It’s become difficult to get a picture together where Eliza isn’t saying “cheese” with a funny face.  These were also taken after all those cookies and cake, so she was easily distracted!
