A Surprise in the Mail

I'm as happy as a little kid.  "Why?" you ask.  I just got a package the mail.  I don't know what it is about going out on the porch to find that the mail carrier has left a box with your name on it and feeling like it's your birthday.  It always make the day amazing.

Well, today's happiness is brought to me by my June Package Pal, Cathy!  We both entered C.R.A.F.T.'s June Package Pals in May. What does that mean?  Well, we each signed up and then were matched up by Jamie if C.R.A.F.T.  We e-mailed each other to introduce ourselves and get to know one another.  Then we were to put together a crafting package for each other.  So, here's mine from Cathy.


Can you feel the excitement?  I swear I feel like Ed McMahon has just rung my doorbell I'm so excited!   Okay, time to open it.  OMG, it's awesome!

Here are all the amazing goodies all spread out!  Cathy crocheted me a beautiful hot pad.  There's beautiful sock yarn.  I love the knitting markers (upper right corner) that look like jade!  Cathy loves all sorts of crafts but definitely loves scrapbooking so she enclosed a chipbox along with some scrapbooking cards.  Finally, there's some amazing hand cream and lip gloss.  

I feel like a 5 year old at Christmas.  I hope she likes what I sent her.  I'll show you tomorrow.

Cathy, thanks!  You definitely made my day!

4 You

Snail mail continues to be my favourite method of communication. It's worth the wait because it's so much fun to find a mystery parcel in your mailbox :) Enjoy!
