Cookies and flowers

This summer has been full of crazy adventures and a lot of work. I work at a Garden Center and I LOVE it!! I love being outside all day, and I think flowers can be therapeutic. Its amazing how many varieties of plants are out there, and its helped me continue to learn new things at work. Some may think I'm a bit of a nerd, but when I walk by plants in a yard or in a park I tend to say the name of the plant in my head. ha! Earlier in the summer I visited a couple places with some pretty flower beds. Here's a few pics....





I took these at Temple Square with my childhood BFF, Michelle :)
Here are a couple from my brothers house, with some bonus pics of the nieces and nephew!







Aren't they so cute?! I love Maya's funny faces, she is definitely not camera shy. Elijah has a way of looking mischievous all the time, like he's hiding something? hmmm..... However, there is rarely a dull moment at their house!! So I know this blog is long already but I wanted to add some pictures from when I made Gluten-free Peanut Butter Cookies.




They turned out pretty amazing, I would definitely make this recipe again! Who says gluten-free has to be all bad?? . . . . muah haha
