Candy Making

:: Today we got together with Grandma and Mom's sisters to make candy. Actually, since it was Mom's relations, it was like all chocolate covered stuff. ::

:: Aud, patiently making chocolate covered pretzels. ::

:: Mia and cousin Emily making sponge candy. ::

:: Grandma dipping stuff in chocolate. ::



:: He may be a little tipsy, but little brother can stand on his own two feet now. ::

:: More and more candy! ::

:: Mia and Em with some of the finished products. And yes, we did eat a LOT...and felt a little sick afterwards...which probably served us right. ::


:: Aud and Shan (from the other evening) ::

:: The Mother and Father. ::
