Love the package! We get the same from my mom and now Max is always saying "I like the mail man, he always brings us presents"
My kids love to get packages from grandma too! How fun!
I agree! I sort of miss living far away from mom just for the packages! Hope you guys had a great Easter. I got your cute card and adorable pictures! Your kids are the cutest. Miss yoU!

Okay, I messed up! Jenny left that comment that says "Amy". Oops!
