I got mail!

It arrived today! The package for Christine and I from Lisa and Tony!

Inside I found a little package for me! It included shorts from Guam and letters he had written to me. Since he liked the open whens I gave him/have been sending him, he decided to write some for me! That is so unbelievably sweet and thoughtful! He also included a post card. It was of a brown tree snake (they are super invasive in Guam).

I also got letters in the mail, too! :) Everyone loves mail and mail from your hubbalicious overseas is that much more exciting!








So, if you're the one away, make sure you send mail home! It's really important! We love it! So, get out your pen and paper! (Maybe even get some cute stationary/note cards when you're in port) and write to us! They told him it was free but apparently it's not so fork over the dough to send a letter home once in awhile. Also, if yours sends you a care package, send a thank you to him or her! I'm talking a real, handwritten thank you that you mail separately. Emailing him or her to tell them thank you for caring is not enough! Remember your manners. This is one thing I am pretty old-fashioned about. I don't care if you hate your handwriting! Your milso will not care! He or she will be so excited to see your writing. It's just another way to "be there" when you can't "be" there!
