The kids especially loved all the "special touches" art work inside the flaps of the box!!
But they especially loved what was on the INSIDE the box....
We loved seeing letters from home as well .... we get email all the time (and are beyond grateful for it), but there's just something special about reading a handwritten note.
Doll clothes for Baby Alive. We have found them here, but at around $36 an outfit, Baby Alive doesn't get new clothes. Emma was THRILLED!!
And of course you can't go wrong with Razorback!!! (yeah, the touch of Razorback was a HIT)
You also can't go wrong with SWEETARTS!!!!
Or Silly Bandz!!
Or our favorite cds!!
We went slow and easy ... and enjoyed every little thing. We could feel the Father loving us in such a very special way!!
The Yellow Box flip flops were the highlight for some of us!!
While the Zhu Zhu pet was a hit for others!! Emma has actually been asking for a 'real life' guinea pig, so we're thankful this will fill that void in her life! :)
We ALL loved this one ... and it will not be going back in the ornament box in January. We'll find a place to keep it throughout the year.
We all 5 poured over every word written in the cards!! How special it was to read from the heart.
We never expected the pets to rack up as well, but they did ... and were happy about it!
Getting it all divided equally ... down to the last piece of bubble gum! :)
We are thankful to be here, but we miss our families like crazy!! Thank you, dear ones, for loving on us in such a way!!
We're not really sure how it all fit in the box, but G0d touched us in the deepest places of our hearts through you. We know it's not about the 'things', but He used you and these things to bring some happiness into our lives. We love you all!!
