the perfect place

Robby and I just got our permit for the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. It's official... we are going there for our honeymoon! I really can't imagine a more perfect place to spend our 1st few days of marriage together. First of all it is one of the most beautiful places that I can imagine and second it is incredibly peaceful. We are going to leave our cell phones, computer, internet and any connection with the outside world and spend a few days just us in the middle of the wilderness... no distractions... no stress. Sigh.

p.s. I love camping. I think I could camp everyday.

I can't wait!!!!

You've Got Mail!

Seriously... getting "fun" mail brightens my day! :) This week I have gotten 2 fun packages from 3 very wonderful friends!!! It was my new years resolution this year to be more thoughtful... I have A LOT of work to do!

Christina sent me a letter! It isn't very often when someone takes the time to hand write a letter... which makes this mail EXTRA special! She sent it in the cutest package - fruit that looks like bugs... i can't describe it but it is really stinkin cute! Her stationery is vintage and fun right?! (by the way... I really want to collect vintage cards to make "new" greeting cards with... doesn't that sound fun... who wants to spend $4-$5 on a card now days) Anyways... she also sent me a copy of her vegan cookbook. Although I don't typically cook vegan... i'm excited to try out a few recipes! Thanks Christina... you are so thoughtful and such a great friend!

Mary and Beth sent me a box full of Birthday and Sympathy love from Denver :) The box came complete with 2 sympathy cards, 1 homemade birthday greeting, red nail polish (beleive it or not I don't already have this color!), crazy socks, a fuzzy smile thing, trail mix (very healthy), an opened bag of my farorite easter candy cadberry mini eggs (it's okay I like to share), a folk cd (I LOVE folk music), a tie dye shirt (yes, I will wear this with pink pumps), tie dye art, and EVEN a chocolate doughnut treat for Robby. Ahhhhh. So much meaning in such a little box.
Thanks sweet friends... I love you!!

I'm very grateful to have such kind friends!
