So a little background really quick! My older brother, whom I am VERY close to, is in the army and in Iraq right now and wont be home until July (he will be home for my wedding! ) so this is his very first Christmas away from home.... So its a little depressing... Anyways... My mother and I just baked about 12 dozen chocolate chip cookies, 10 dozen peanut butter cookies, and 5 dozen cream cheese cookies to send over to him and the other troops in his company.... I am sooo tired after that LOL! But it feels good being able to send something sweet to them during Christmas time... We always send them ALL care packages which we also have 5 boxes besides the cookies that are going out to them all on Monday.... Just thought Id share, it feels good! LOL
