For some odd reason, we never walked down to our mailbox yesterday to get the mail. Maybe we were too busy painting. Or doing taxes.
It wasn’t until nearly 7:00 PM on our return from church that we picked up our mail….to find a large, long, and flat package sticking out of our mailbox.
A package that included these photos of my nieces and nephews …
and a very sweet card …
My youngest sister, Amy sent the package. A gift from their family. Man do I love this family. She’s “the baby”. Fourth girl. Yup, 4 girls. No boys. I was 11 when mom broke the news to me that she was expecting baby 4 and I remember the day like it was yesterday. One of the bestdaysofmylife! But that’s a story for another day.
Besides the photos of the kiddos, and the sweet card, this was also in the package…
An extra large utility bag from Thirty-one. My first one.
I L.O.V.E. it!
Just two days ago I sat at our kitchen table drooling over my laptop as I browsed the online catalog, then proceeded to add my first choice selection to a party a friend in Indiana was hosting. The above gift was my 2nd choice! I get my 1st and 2nd choices! How happy am I?
So happy I did the happy dance!
Maybe I’ll talk Baby Girl into hosting a party so I can see everything in person. (I swore off hosting home parties years ago). If home parties would offer the option to give your guests the hostess perks, I’d be interested. I want everyone to enjoy the benefit.
