Simple Girl


Little life things make me the happiest.
Especially little life things tucked inside my mailbox.
Letters. Postcards. Magazines. Gifts.
Pretty much anything.
Except bills, junk mail and that one time I reached in and grabbed a spider.

A recent ho-hum day turned into a huge hooray when I discovered these pretties that I had won, waiting for me via Lindsay from {Scenic Glory}

A heart-full print for Baby Bean and a charming bracelet for Mama Bon Bon.

Poor Daniel was feeling left out while I did my celebratory.mail.dance, so I let him open the envelope with our new car insurance papers.

I know. I'm such a giver.

xoxo

    I love getting mail but unfortunately with technology that doesn't happen a lot anymore. I also suck at sending mail out, I should work on that so I can get some mail myself too!

    I love getting mail. My husband, as a mailman, can't figure out why it's so exciting. I feel like he has the best job in the world...delivering joy to hundreds of people!

    Mail is one of my favorite things. I remember when I was in high school I had so many pen pals that I had met on the internet, and some of them have still remained some of my biggest supporters! That would be something fun to start again!

    P.S. I just started following you & I love your blog design.

    One time, my mom told me she grabbed a COCKROACH out of the mail box! Ever since, I've been a freaked out mess when I check the mail at night. (shudders)

    Yay for fun mail! I always hope for a million dollar check.

    Hello, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues.
    When I look at your blog in Ie, it looks fine but when opening
    in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!
    Other then that, very good blog!

    I have been browsing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any
    interesting article like yours. It
    is pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as
    you did, the net will be a lot more
    useful than ever before.
