That's right folks. When I went to the Post Office today expecting something from Peace Corps, instead I was greeted with an unexpected package!!!!!! My dear brother and sis-in-law sent this baby and man was I excited to open it.
I literally SQUEALED when I saw the pop-tarts sitting there. Even better? They're the confetti kind which is a limited edition I saw online and have yet to try.
So many goodies!!
Thank you thank you Jeremy and Tina. The design mags, notepad, Easter goodies for my kids {let's be real: the Cadbury min-eggs are for me. I'm not sharing my fave Easter candy...}, a mini-umbrella, and a Zippo hand warmer! Oh, and a card that plays the ENTIRE Boomer Sooner song! I can't wait to show it to my friends. I loved the Easter card too, which I'm guessing my brother had something to do with.
Am I right, Jeremy? :)
I wrote on my sis-in-laws' facebook wall at 4:30 pm saying that I was trying my best not to open the mini-eggs yet.
That lasted a whole 'nother hour before I opened the bag. Turns out I have no self control when it comes to food from home. Whoops. I am putting the pop-tarts away for a rainy day though!
Speaking of precipitation, it snowed today. For a lot of hours. Didn't stick very much. I am not getting out my winter coat again. Nuh-uh. No way.
A birthday shout-out is in order for today as well :) March seems to be an incredibly popular month for my friends to be born?! Today is Miss Britney's birthday--a dear friend with a true servant's heart.
She drives a red bug in real life! Not just this mini one... :)
Lydia, Britney, Grace--Mexico 2010
I first got to know Britney during the summer of 2010 on the 3-week mission in Mexico called Juners. During those weeks, I watched Britney come out of her shell and truly become a leader for the younger ones on that trip. She was always willing to lend a hand, no matter the {nasty} job. Her love of life is truly contagious. And, she has a wonderful sense of style :)
She also looks great in corn-rows.
after a week of corn-rows, we were sad to take them out.
an ex-gymnast. look at that form!
I've never met a red-head who could tan like she does. She's darker than me, which isn't saying a lot, but we won't get into that now...

Hope your birthday is filled with love and lots of things that make you feel special today, Britney :) sending you a hug from 5500 miles away!

I forget when we shipped it but this one got there a lot faster than the one we sent at Christmas. Glad you got it and are enjoying it!
I will have to ask Tina about the card. I don't remember who picked it out first.
The hand warmer was supposed to be a Christmas present but it didn't get here in time. Oh well, you'll be there another winter. :)
I love looking at those pictures!!! Makes me really happy :) Thank you Lydia that was so sweet of you to post!!!
