Yum! The tacos were delicious! And, the fruit. Wow!!! Dawn, Matt and I loved the chips and cheese add-on from your kids. So good! Umm...and ice cream for dessert? I don't think it could get any better. Thank you so much, Dawn! We hope you are feeling better and that the week has been full of good news for you!!!
Then...Declan's preschool teacher from last year brought over a gift basket for me from her and a former preschool teacher of Kyrie. It was so neat. Full of fun hats to wear! And, lotion, and cards, and note paper. So fun! I wish I had taken a picture of the basket, because it was beautiful, but we kind of ripped it apart really fast trying on all of the hats. Here are some pics:
So fun! Thank you so much, Ms. Bruders and Mrs. Kveen!
I forgot to mention the wonderful brat dinner the Brandels made us on Monday as well. I have no pictures of that, because the kids scarfed it down so fast. These guys just love brats. So bizarre.
Okay, backtracking a bit to last Saturday, Cathy's family sent me yet another present - a beautiful book called "Fight On" as well as a necklace, a motivational sign, that goes perfectly with the one Cathy had already given me, some aloe socks (interesting!), a nail file (I always need these) and some nail polish. It was such a nice thing for them to do. Here is a collage of some of the pages in the book - such beautiful photos and great sayings. I know I will be looking at it often.
Finally, I was so surprised when the doorbell rang today with a flower delivery. My very good friend, Steph, sent me this beautiful poinsettia plant!
Thank you, Steph, and Bondioli family! We are definitely in the Christmas spirit around here now! So pretty!
love your pink pointsetta and everyone wearing the cute hats.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the book too! I will be sure to let her know- it was great to flip through and see the pictures with the inspirational saying
