Forgot to mention that Chris made it safely home on Monday night - fortunately, he was in the air and was able to miss the Red Sox loss... Again he came home with two bags stuffed to their capacity with goodies and once again, he did an awesome job getting things on my list...
He brought me deodorant - do you know that they don't sale the same deodorant here? I went around for a week or two either smelling like ick or like Chris (which some might mention are the same thing!) since I finally just decided to wear his deodorant until I could get some of my own!
There were also some Webkinz for the kids and he even did some Christmas shopping for the kids - It was pretty cute as he proceeded to lay out "pretty dresses" for Sydney... more like long shirts. But very cute nonetheless... If she wears any of them as dresses... well, let's just say that she wouldn't be allowed to stay at school! :) He also got me long sleeve t-shirts which clearly said on the tag "sleepwear"... again, something I needed, but not what he thought he was getting.
He scored big points by bringing candy corn and bags of Spanish rice mix and a HUGE Vera Bradley bag for me. I can never have too many of those!
As if this bag of goodies wasn't enough, on Tuesday, I received a HUGE box from my parents full of even more goodies! Mom & Dad sent me more deodorant (maybe they smelled me all the way in TN!), Spanish rice mix, and THREE bags of candy corn... The kids were very excited to get books, moon pies (AKA Papa cookies), and a toy from Denny and Papa. I think Sydney was most excited that Papa sent her some of his special gum... that was the first thing she showed her Daddy when he came home from work. She told him, "Papa was so nice he even shared his special gum with us."
So yes - I have been very excited this week to get things that I so often have taken for granted... thanks to a wonderful husband and loving parents, I now smell good and have a happy tummy!
