Hello, so I have been a bit missing this May from the blogging world. So it is not exactly because I am a lazy blogger.....well, some of my absence is, but of course I do have excuses! Before I go on to the golf ball cookies, I would like to share a bit of what if happening in our Red Couch life.
My husband and I took a trip back east to Virginia to our son's medical school graduation from Virginia Commonwealth University. Here is the proud graduate with his wife. They are moving to Pennsylvania for his intern year in internal medicine and for his three year residency in dermatology.
Of course we got to visit with the grandchildren! So fun and cute!
We also were able to visit Mt. Vernon, the home of General George Washington and his wife Martha Washington. After he left the presidency, George Washington did not like to be called President Washington, but preferred to be called General Washington. I am a history buff, so of course I loved visiting Mt. Vernon.
Now on to the golf cookies. I just want you to know that I will always take a golf ball cookie over golfing anytime, any day! So all you need are some small sugar cookies.
A bit of fondant....
Next we are on to our oldest daughter's graduation from high school....in three days.
As you can see, she is a bit excited to be graduating and starting college.
My daughter's graduation photos were taken by Kylie Elizabeth Photography.
Life is not always full of such fun and good happenings,, such as graduations and travel, but when they do occur we should celebrate them as much as possible.
Thanks for taking time to visit us at our Red Couch.
