Treat Box

Growing up my MawMaw and PawPaw always lived kind of far away.  It was a bit of a bummer, but they were awesome about making the distance not seem so bad. They made visits, sent cards and letters, called often on the phone, and a couple times a year, they would send treat boxes.  
Those were awesome!  They were never related to any holiday or special event, just at random times our family would get a big box on the porch full of all kinds of goodies.  We loved it!  I still have saved some of the little things that came in those boxes.  It was such a fun and special thing for us.

Well.  Now Brinlee's MawMaw lives kind of far away, and today on our doorstep we found a special, fun surprise!  MawMaw and Aunt Amy had put together an October time treat box, and boy was Little Miss Brin in heaven!  There were toys, and books, and jammies, and happiness!


She was VERY excited about it!


Mom and dad got some treats too, and they came just in the knick of time.  Tim made it through a rough study session or two, thanks only to a package of mint Oreos.  And a good old batch of yellow cake and chocolate frosting took care of a rather long, tiresome day for me, as it always does.  What can I say?  My mother and sister know me too well.


Thanks ladies for the fun surprise, you so totally rock!  You made some happy campers out of this little family  :)
