This lovely surprise came to us in the mail a few months back…
It was full of presents and goodies, and a little note…

My lovely sister Anna sent this fun package to us! We were instructed to open a present when we were feeling blue – to help give us a little pick-me-up. Isn’t she the sweetest?
Katelyn was feeling awfully sad that I wouldn’t let her open her presents – so since she was feeling so sad she got to open them anyway – right? (or we have no sense of self-control!) hehehe

Katelyn was so excited to open presents – of course! She loved all the cute little toys and the fun things that Anna and Danny sent. (They were sweet and sent three gifts for each of us.) And yes, Brad opened all his presents too! (Katelyn’ was goading him along – “Open the next one Daddy!”)
Anna was right – these were the perfect pick-me-up and a very fun afternoon. Katelyn and I have been sporting hot pink fingers and toes several times in the past few months. Katelyn has enjoyed all her girly gifts too! What’s a princess to do with fun jewelry, a hair dryer, chapstick, and a little doll to play with?!
Thank you Anna and Danny for spoiling us with the best surprise in the mail! We might just have to continue this fun tradition…
