Sugar Cookies

Yesterday I decided to make sugar cookies for Easter. Everyone at my work loves them and begs me to make them. They are almost as good as my snickerdoodles. Here is the recipe if anyone that wants to try it.........
Soft Sugar Cookies

Cream together:
2 C Sugar
1 C butter

Add:
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 C sour cream

Mix and add:
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 C flour

Add:
2 1/2 to 3 cups flour until dough is stiff

Refrigerate for 2 + hours

Roll on floured surface and add flour as needed (so it's not too sticky). Make about the thickness of your little finger. Cut out with cookie cutters (bigger cookie cutters work better).

Bake 350 degrees for 12-14 minutes (do not overcook).

Remove immediately from cookie sheet to cool on wire rack. When completely cooled, frost with cream cheese frosting and decorate as desired.

Note: I use a lot of parchment paper. I use it on my cookie sheets and in between layers of cookies so that the frosting doesn't smear.

Yet another.....NEW Hobby

Justin and I have been talking about going to the gun range for quite some time. Last Saturday, he took me down to Doug's Shoot-n-Sports. I got to try quite a few different brands and calibers of guns.....I decided that I liked the glock the best. And guess what....Justin let me buy one! See below........

Glock model 27 .40cal

I should mention that we have been talking about getting me a gun for a while and have been looking at other gun stores, this was not a spur of the moment type of decision. Once I really got to do some shooting.....I was hooked! We are taking the Concealed Weapons Permit class next week, taught by a friend of Justin's. Safety is very important to us and I would like to find a class for Kenlee to take that is for children and gun safety. So, if anyone knows of that sort of thing, let me know!
