Packages

We got a couple of great packages in the mail this last week (and today)! A package from Grammy and Grandad - which had valentine's for the the kids and boxes of valentine's for the kids to send their classmates, an outfit for miss thing (see above), sunglasses for the kids, a grinder of sea salt and scissors for me, a box of little debbie snack cakes and other fun stuff! Thanks for the great packages!

Dan was recently in another country and it is really cheap to shop the american stores there and send food here (like $1.32USD for a large box of cereal and $3USD to ship the whole package) :) We got things that are really expensive here, like Fruit Loops, Stove Top stuffing, dessert treats, m&m's and various Pringle flavors. Now if we could just figure out a way to have people ship us cheese (oh, we miss you so) and ham and various pork products (that do not taste like preservatives)! Seriously, when we come home this summer to visit, anyone we see had better be prepared to help us eat cheese in all it's forms and sandwich ham (although I won't pout at a nice hamsteak or oven baked ham, either). Oh, and hummus from Costco. And Anita's. And Taco Bell. And Boston Market. Alright, now I'm hungry.

Incidentally, here is bit of our room. Not finished, but at least my nice mirror/frames are up and our fun star over our bed. Our bed is one of 5 pieces of furniture we brought with us. 1)the bed and bedframe, 2)art/paper cabinet in living room, 3)kids table and chairs, 4)toy chest Dan's Grandpop made, 5)bookshelf in Moo's room.
