Day 8: Got Something For You

The doorbell rings every morning around here.  And though no one is at the door when I open it, there are always lots of goodies on the porch!
Everyone in the family has been shopping online and Amazon (my favorite store especially with Amazon Prime free 2-day shipping -- beats a two hour round trip drive to Kansas City or a trip to Walmart any day).  So everyday new packages arrive on our doorstep via UPS, FEDEX, or USPS. 
I am especially intrigued by this really big one that just arrived.  Nate has been secretive about the gifts he has bought (not just one for me, but about gifts for the kids as well).  So now I am a bit antsy waiting for Christmas morning too. 
Another fun development is my children's excitement to choose gifts for each other as well.  Before this year, they were more interested in receiving that giving.  It's fun to see them really ponder what gifts their brothers and sisters might enjoy and be excited to give. 
Christmas is definitely coming!

We are online shoppers too. We bought the new rug for our living room online - and it's perfect.

Wish I could say the same for the light fixture we bought!
