Two months and 102 Boys
Taylor and I have now been married just over two months. And this tuesday, we adopted 102 boys. I figured my first act as the mom of Pearce would be to bake over 300 cookies (with some cookie dough from Costco) for their first night. Chocolate Chip Cookies and 8 gallons of milk is a good way win them over.

Hurray....more connections with your life in PA. These look like awesome people. I wish I had some great words of wisdom on the "stinky boys" experience, but all I can say is that it is sometimes easier to throw things away than try and get the smell out of them....socks especially. If I was a mom who had just left her son there for his freshman year, I would feel very comforted to know that he is in such loving hands....that was A LOT of cookies. Grandma Sprague would be very proud. That was her kind of batch of cookies.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are so loved and missed that everyone will feel a lot better now that we can see a bit more about your life. Keep them coming.
Love you,
i'm impressed with your cookie-baking adventure. did you learn how to bake like that from Jody?
ReplyDeleteI was wondering the same thing but I noticed they weren't monster cookies. Food- A sure way to their hearts. Smart going on the Costco dough!
ReplyDeleteHey guys, lol it looks like you guys are really enjoying it out there, i love all the pictures! I miss you guys a lot, I leave in just like 2 days and I am really nervous. But we shall see how everything goes. I will talk to you guys later, good luck with all those boys. lol
ReplyDeleteOK, seriously, cannot believe people are ripping on me on my sister's blog. I bake from SCRATCH--no Cosco dough for me!!!! Actually, I am quite impressed. Can you come visit for Thanksgiving? :-)
