Do you remember the sugar cookies Kaitlin baked? She and Torben aren’t cookie eaters so she sent them to Andy. She told me he would be proud that she wrapped them his way — tons of shipping tape. We didn’t tell him they were coming, and I told her I would take pictures when they got here. She didn’t expect they would be in one piece because she shipped them in a shoe box, so we were curious to see what they looked like.
It took Andy four minutes to unwrap the box…I took over 50 pictures of the process and then uploaded them to a Flickr album.
The cookies turned out fine. Most were unbroken and even the broken ones were in big pieces.
We don’t have to be physically together to build strong memories.
Thank you, Kaitlin!

What a cute story, plus pictures…. -smile-
Greetings from
the North Pole…
It was fun. 🙂
love the story and the unwrapping – some priceless expressions from Andy – would’ve loved the voice additions – and that was a quick arrival as I know the cookies weren’t too long ago, baked!
It was fun to watch him. 🙂
Sweet!!!!!!!!!
Yes. It warmed my heart. 🙂
Andy’s expressions are precious! Neat you thought to document the whole process. I’m giggling, on account Tom has said he suspects I hold stock in 3M. More (tape) is always better!
😀
Awww, that was so nice of Kaitlin to send the cookies to Andy. Bet he enjoyed the whole deal, from the unwrapping to the tasting:) We are hoping to make chocolate dipped peanut butter balls this weekend.
They sound delicious! That’s a great combination.
I love Andy’s smile! even before he’s opened the box. xo
It was a surprise. He didn’t know what was in it.
They are adorable! And in such good shape after being shipped!
Yes, that was a pleasant surprise. 🙂
This all touched my heart deeply!! A Christmas surprise package is the best!!!!
It wasn’t even Christmas…it was a. spontaneous gift. That’s even better. 🙂
What a nice surprise for Andy. I bet that was fun watching him try and get into that box.
Yes, and it was fun being able to post the pictures in a Flickr album so Kaitlin and Torben could see too.
This was fun to read and see…Andy looks like he has such a twinkle in his eye.
It was neat. 🙂
what a great gift and so much phun for him and you. i agree, the perfect way to be together and not together
Yes. 🙂
What wonderful cookies. Glad they survived the journey (more or less) intact.
We were surprised they didn’t break more. It was fun.
