Chrissy Keeps Coming

January 4, 2010

Arrived home this afternoon to find this on my doorstep: My brown paper package gift from Valerie!!! Perfect timing – if it had arrived last week, it would have sat outside until we arrived home from Newcastle. Rather Australian card there ;) Jam Packed! (Rish likes the bubble wrap! Thanks!) Awesome bird necklace and earrings. [...]

Recovery
