So this weekend we received our first care packages! Lorelai described best "It's Christmas, It's our birthday, This is way cool!" It was so much fun to open those packages and have no clue what was in them. It was such a blessing. Our first aid kit was restocked, thank you Pat Oden, that is something we use all the time. Ryan was blessed by several people with gear for fishing so he can provide us with meat. Ed and Shelly and Gale and Tommy filled it with so many other great things. Our pantry now sports beef jerky, peanut butter, crackers, oatmeal, and many other items. The kids each had speacial treats to open as well Natalie and Mari-Madeline's precious birthday gifts. I must say that as amazing as it all was the funnest suprise was for the kids....ICE CREAM SANDWICHES!!!!!! How you ask, think NASA, Tommy found them in the camping department and got them for the kiddos! Way to go Tommy, the kids we so thrilled.
I am not sure the joy of this will wear off any time soon. We are so blessed to have so many people caring for us. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the packages. We could not have asked for anything better!
