can we just talk for a minute about mail? for as long as i can remember, i've been a little bit of a mail whore. i love sending mail, and i love getting it. but around this time of year, my mail whoreishness gets taken to a new level- and i just about attack my poor cigarette-smoking mail lady to tear through my stack of letters (after i air them out a bit). i love holiday cards, i love seeing little smiling faces peering out of my mailbox, and love catching up with friends i haven't heard from in months. MAIL! ok, mail. i love mail.
i had fun making our christmas cards this year. i used cereal boxes and vintage wrapping paper and vintage rick rack (gifted to me from kat!). the picture of the kids is kind of blurry and not perfect- lulu is sporting pink eye and everyone is sick. but it was as good as we were going to get this year---- i was tempted to print out one of the outtakes which involved screaming, biting, and/or hitting but decided to go with the more smile-ish one.
if i have forgotten to send one to you it's because i don't have your address! so please send.
in other news, my boyfriend is back in town! i haven't written about it here but j. has been away for almost five months. so yeah, it's been a little crazytown here in gilbertland. we are in a major transition here now that daddy's home- mama's getting used to having dirty socks laying around...and the snoring! the snoring! that's one thing i'm going to have to get used to again. ;)
today is my day
