Post Office Monday
February 12, 2007
8:06 a.m. - First Trip to the Post Office
Stocked up on priority mail supplies and sent out our Christmas cards (yes, you read it right). I felt compelled to stamp all the envelopes with Happy Valentine's Day because, although they say, "Peace on Earth, Goodwill to All," most likely they will show up on Wednesday. And talk about mixed messages...the photo of the girls was taken on the Fourth of July, they are wearing red and blue sundresses and waving the flag, and the bottom of the card has 2006 on it. Oh well, better late than never.
9:47 a.m. - Second Trip to the Post Office
Kate's class field trip to buy stamps and mail letters. She told me not to look!
3:22 p.m. - Third Trip to the Post Office
Miniswap package finally sent to Amanda and Max! To see what we gave, click on the photo.
Chances are that if you are expecting something from me (and there are a few of you who are), your box will go in the mail this week, too. I have a long list of stuff I need and want to do over the next few days. So, I think I will be posting more photos and less words. Now, if I could just remember to take my camera with me when I leave the house, I'll be in good shape.
i have post office ambitions this week too :)

I LOVE your Christmas card story. And the kids' trip to the post office is adorable - Kate's return adress is a hoot!

Better late then never! Mini-swap package looks great. Loving the stripes and red gingham! The kids just received their mini-swap parcel today. They were so excited. I'll post pictures tomorrow.

I think sending Christmas cards at Valentine's Day is a great idea!

Hey, at least you got them done. Do the PO workers know you by name by now?

I just gave up on the cards this year. That was the first time I hadn't sent them. I'm still kind of bummed about it. Good for you for getting some Christmas closure.
Love the swap booty. What lucky recipients!
