Graduations Galore!

At last! June is here which means school is almost out for the summer (although summer in Washington tends to just make cameos throughout the month) and I am busy in the kitchen cooking up lots of fun graduation treats. From high school graduations and excited future freshman to mature seniors ready to take on the "real world," I think I have covered just about everyone this year! 

Washington State University Graduation and Football Cookies

Graduation cookies are one of my favorite assortments to make because I love seeing all the school colors and mascots come together like in this picture below! So much fun to make and to celebrate, and this wasn't even all of them!

Assorted Graduation Cookies

 I had some new school requests that I haven't made in the past, special shout out to Gonzaga University, Arizona State University, Mercer Island High School and University of Southern California (USC)!

 I thought these Arizona State graduation cookies turned out pretty cute! Especially the pitchfork which was a bit tricky to do in buttercream.

  And yes I had to make some (more like many) graduation cookies for the University of Washington - I have to give the huskies a hard time being a coug and all (GO COUGS). But I guess they do deserve some special recognition. Good job Huskies.

My cookies have made their way up to the Sammamish plateau to the beautiful Skyline High School community. I am so proud of my cousin who graduated this year and decided to go to Washington State! Her brother broke my heart when we switched and decided to go to Arizona instead...but actually I don't blame him and I probably should have done the same so I could wear shorts and tank tops all year versus Ugg boots and North Face fleeces...oh well!  I am super excited to go and visit her though and she is going to rush!

 University of Arizona graduation cookies! BEAR DOWN! I am really hoping to make it down to the Arizona vs. Wazzu game this year but we will see. I have never been to Tucson and some nice sunny weather in October sure doesn't hurt.

University of Arizona Graduation Cookies

 University of Colorado graduation cookies! Colorado is on my bucket list for traveling. But I can't decide if I want to go in the summer and hike or in the winter and ski more? Tough decision because I hear it is beautiful either way.

University of Colorado Boulder Graduation Cookies

 University of Southern California....again why couldn't I have picked a sunny and warm place to go to school. I haven't been to SoCal in a long time, I think the last time I was there was when I was 15 and I convinced my mom to get my belly button pierced on the Venice boardwalk...she ended up getting her's done too. hehe. Good times! Maybe a trip is in order and a little visit to Disneyland!

USC Graduation Cookies

 I love the Mercer Island High School logo with the overlapping MI. Shout out to all the MI peeps!
