Surprises Come In Big Packages

A couple days before Halloween, we came home to a surprise on our doorstep. We had been shooting some bridal photos and by the time we were home it was dark. Conor wanted to know what I had ordered and I insisted nothing. He brought in the large box and told me it didn't look like nothing. Shane had just texted and told us to check our door so I figured it was from him. We had no clue what was inside, but it weighed a fair amount. I was guessing a 5 lb. brick of caramel for apples and candies since I told Shane I couldn't find any here. We opened up our box and found some lovely surprises!


I love surprises!!!

Me, trying to act surprised.

Almond Joys=joy in my mouth! Those are the best packing pellets I've seen yet!
Look at his face! Like a kid at Christmas!!!

I had to pry them out of his fingers . . .

He drank the first one so fast I couldn't capture it. So here was round 2 the next morning, thus the fluffy hair.

I think I should've timed this . . .

And he polishes it off!

He knows if he tilts it at an angle he can suck a few more drops out.

Officially gone and already compacted for the trash! : )


We were so excited and welcome surprises any time!!! : ) Shane and Mindy felt bad they were no longer going to be able to visit before Thanksgiving like we had talked about last month and sent us this consolation prize. Conor is especially grateful (not that you're not visiting) because he has been out of his beloved rootbeer milk for a couple months now. You can buy it in Logan at the Gossner's cheese factory. I bought 5 cases before we moved and hauled it with us. When we drive to UT for the holidays we're stocking up on more. Conor insists this is part of the year's supply food storage we should be saving . . . Shane thought it quite comical that we'll be loading up our car with cases of the stuff and wanted to see what it was all about when they visited Logan recently. They were very kind to think of us and send us our goodies! Thank you guys!!! We look forward to your visit next spring!
