Sugar cookies

 On thursday my sister Amy Invited us over to make cookies! It wes a blast! We have sort of made this a family tradition. We get togather for a few of the holidays and make cookies, Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's and Sometimes Easter. We have a great time and everyone goes home with full bellies and an all night sugar rush (Jk). I'll post the recipe it's way delicious! 

1 1/2 C. Butter (softened)
2 1/2 C. Sugar
4 eggs
2 tsp. Vanilla
5C. Flour
2 tsp. Baking powder
1 tsp. Salt

Cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla, Stir in flour, Baking powder and salt. Cover and chill dough for  at least an hour.
