oh the joy!
i came back from a cold windy walk today
and found this on my porch.
happy mail.
i set it on the table
and made myself get all my cleaning done
before i would allow myself the pleasure of opening it.
i have never cleaned so fast.
crystal suggested a spring swap.
i said “count me in”
i was so excited to be in my first one!
i did smile.
what fun, what fun!
i love the sticky dots!
and the candy is just perfect for me…
it will be quickly hidden away from little grabby hands.
she sewed these little flowers on wash clothes!
so adorable.
and this is the happiest thing of all.
WOW.
i was beaming all afternoon.
thank you so much crystal.
i’m glad you like yours too.
that was fun!

Allison - WOW WOW WOW!!! Love this blog! LUV LUV LUV! Thanks to my friend Gini for sending me here–and thanks to you for keeping it SO STINKING REAL! I read all of the posts on this page, what sticks out to me is your so cute red and white polka dot shoes, the yellow paint (HOLY CRAP my hubby would just die if our son put paint on his TV), the great old bureau you will put in your bathroom (someday) and the pics from the visit to Grandpa’s place. (I need to know where that is, a lot of my work focuses on creating spaces like that for our elders.)
Lee Ann - Oh my goodness that package could must make a girl giddy! What a fun idea.
Crystal - Yay Meg!!!! I am so SO glad that you loved it all…I had such a good time putting it all together for you…I had to laugh that we used the same grass in each others package…and I almost sent you one of my used magazines too but took it out at the last minute!!!
Enjoy it all…I hope the dots are too mod for you! 🙂
