Well, we will all admit the mailbox is good to us all this month. Why can't their be like a great summer holiday that we would all send cards for so we don't have to wait another whole year.
I have gotten 15 Christmas cards this week and it is only Tuesday. Of course my Christmas cards are still in my head and I hope they surface sometime this week.
Jill sent this amazing Pink Christmas mix and it is a treasure of Christmas songs. Are you too laughing at my purple CD player?

I got this amazing box as I do every year from my best friend from High School. (I feel so lucky to even say that, best friend from High School) She has ALWAYS sent me and my family gifts. She probably does not know this but there were many years that besides what received from our parents were the only gifts we opened. I always have been so excited to receive her gifts, they are always awesome. Some of the best items I own and still use are from my friend Heather. Her gifts are always wrapped in the best paper. You know that kind at the store sold by the sheet that you drool over at those cute gift shops. She has the cutest ribbon and tags. I love that she has always done this for me. I am one lucky girl.


We also got this box from Jeff's parents. Is there not just something great about getting baked goods at Christmas time. My mom always sent baklava and pecans in her packages at Christmas time and with internet shopping you just don't see that as much anymore. We got a bunch of fun boxes which of course make me crazy not to peek.
jeff's mom also sent his favorite candy. Andes mints. I love that she knows he loves these treats and sends them to him every Christmas.

The boxes always prove to be the best gift of all as the girls are playing in them as I type.
oh ya, and after giving them 4 baths yesterday and 3 outfits I have decided to stop dressing them at home, messes clean up so much easier off their skin then poly/cotton... hee hee!
