Thanks to all 40 people who mailed me a package of Polaroids to swap for new ones. What fun I had seeing all of the variations....all 1,500 of them! Yesterday I mailed all of the swapped block packages back to you and posted on Instagram about all of the dirty looks I got at the post office. People are usually so kind in my town. Not so when one enters our "not so well staffed" post office with a huge bag of 30+ smaller bags, each of which needing to be weighed. They got over it! (At one point I apologized to them and humbly asked if they would smile for a picture for my blog....no smiles...oh come on people!)
I'm happy because my boys are happy with their new school adventures this year. Mitch will pledge a fraternity tonight though I'm not sure how he will fit that into his jam packed schedule. I love this picture from the summer of him jumping "seaweed" on the beach with friends. A care package of lemon bars is on it's way to Salem. Jack really likes changing classes in middle school. Love this photo where he is all business up top and wild "Hawaiian print and stripes" socks on the bottom.
I've been making key fobs like a mad woman. I had visions of selling them but I keep giving them away! :-)

The blocks look so fun! Great photos as always! The lemon bars sound yummy and those key fobs are sooo cute!
ReplyDeleteI got my blocks yesterday! Fastest Shipping ever :) Love them all and the key fob is fabulous!!! You are so sweet. Thanks for hosting a great swap.
ReplyDeleteI got my Polaroids yesterday!! Thank you for the key fob, it's adorable! I noticed there seemed to be additional postage on my SASE, did you have to cover the difference? I weighed it at the PO so I thought it would be accurate :c Just $1 or so but I'd like to paypal that to you...if you had to do that for a bunch of packages it adds up fast!
ReplyDeleteMy Polaroids arrived along with a super cute key fob! Thanks Kris, for doing all the work of hosting and even dealing with humorless people in line at the post office. It was a fun package to get in the mail and I love the fob!
