I was absolutely giddy with excitement when I opened my mailbox today:
Lucky me!! No, seriously, I'm so excited today!!! :)
First, dear Debby from Nanny's Place sent me this awesome book and a beautiful handmade card:
Her timing couldn't be more perfect. My sister recently started culinary courses, and just yesterday she was bragging to me what she learned. I had to brush off that little green envy guy that peeked inside my home...And then today I'm getting this awesome book! I can't wait to read it all and learn, and learn, and learn. Debby, you are amazing and so thoughtful!!
The second package was something that made my kids super-excited. A couple of weeks ago I was lucky to win a giveaway at Carla's awesome blog. I never win anything (like, never ever!), so I was excited. This is what we got:
It's called a Brobo toy/ night light. It makes some funny noises, and my kids have been playing with it all day today. And now my 6-year old is sleeping with it :)
Thank you so much, ladies! You totally made my day!!
And we also got a paycheck today. And no bills. It was a really great mail day today!
How was your day??
That is great, it is always nice when happy things come in the mail & no bills!

Yes, it is! Days like this don't happen very often :)
DeleteHello Lena
ReplyDeleteFirst of all what a gorgeous photo of your little boy....someone in his life is going to drown in those beautiful eyes! LOL!
I am not at all surprised you are feeling so good...presents in the post are a great way to start a day!!
keep well
Amanda :-)
Aww, thank you, Amanda! You are so sweet! He's my cutie :)
DeleteGotta love happy mail! Wow, he looks SO much like you on that photo. Glad he got that toy. I hope you'll share some culinary secrets with us when you get to them.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny because our family is divided on that - my side says that he looks just like me when I was little, hubby's side claims that he looks just like him :) I think, he got a little bit from both of us.
DeleteSuch a cute toy! I haven't been in a toy store for a while. And you can keep busy with the cooking book!
ReplyDeleteI think you will all enjoy the grill! We do that too...add on holidays in the future for a gift!
Thank you :)
DeleteFriends are awesome. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like your presents (and yeah to your sister for culinary school!!). :)
I agree! And yes, I'm a little envious because of all she learns there. But, at least, she passes it all on me now :)
DeleteWhat an exciting day! When you've had a chance to peruse the book, give us a review - it looks interesting.
ReplyDeleteI will!
DeleteSee things are looking up, you are in my mind and prayers, my sweet girl.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kim :)
DeleteYaaa, so glad the pkg arrived. Not sure there is much to learn from the book but its a fun read. Happy day for both you and those cute boys. A free paycheck...NICE, never seems to happen at our place
ReplyDeleteOf course, there is :) And fun read is exactly what I need right now :)
DeleteThanks for sharing this pic, Lena!
ReplyDeleteMy lovely for Day 9: Possibilities for extra work next year...I feel blessed.
Nan
