birthday eve good mail

Carly was wondering yesterday when the birthday mail was going to start. When she got home from school today she had hit the jackpot. She had opened 2 cards before I could even get the camera out!

Here is the loot that was in the mailbox today. I tried to get her to save them to open tomorrow on her birthday but that was not happening.

  • There was a card from MamMam & Grandaddy with the customary $8.00 -she wanted to know if they would give her $50 on her 50th birthday -she's planning ahead:)
  • There was a card and Make Your Own LipBalm from Uncle Beege, Aunt Libba, and JC - only making the cupcakes won out over making lip balm right now but there will probably be some made before we go to bed!
  • A precious kitty-kat card from Great Grandmother Finn.
  • Big birthday package from Uncle Rocky and Aunt Kacey. There was a cupcake alarm clock (loves that when you push the button it says "delicious"), a really cute "c" t-shirt (can I wear tomorrow?), and birthday stationery - thank you notes will be REALLY cute.

Carly opted to do something different for her birthday rather than having a big birthday party. She has invited 2 little friends over tomorrow for a "Birthday Day" (they are out of school for teacher inservice day). So, the fun starts at 10 a.m. in the morning. Come back to the blog tomorrow for birthday updates!
