Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies

While the husband was deployed last year I lived with five girls. Being able to live with these lovely girls turned out to be such a blessing. I loved being surrounded by people all of the time and we ended up making many wonderful memories. During the year we made a point to celebrate each season and had many holiday parties. One of my roommates made oatmeal pumpkin cookies for one of these parties and I was instantly hooked! She was kind enough to share the family recipe. I had so much fun making these cookies this year and sharing them with the hubby. He is quite the fan of them as well!
