Feelin me some L.O.V.E

Wow, I couldn't wait to post these pictures because I feel way too lucky to have such an amazing family. Seriously, I was completely overwhelmed yesterday when beautiful woman after beautiful woman showed up at my door with gifts of love and hope. I keep saying that no one will ever understand how much this means to me and Jordan, and I truly mean it. I was feeling pretty down Friday night and totally dreading the next day but it ended up being one of the best days a girl could ask when going through something like this. Thank you again for all of the sweet messages, gifts and love.

This basket of goodies is from cute Brookie Wookie. She showed up at my door around 11 am with the cutest little picnic bag I have ever seen, filled with the most random stuff ever. LOL! This is what it contained: Twizzlers, Otter Pops, stuff for S'mores, gum, chalk, a beach ball, a bubble blowing gun, nail polish, Bert's Bee's chapstick, caramels, peaches, strawberries, Nutella and even batteries for the bubble gun. There was something for everyone and it brought a huge smile to my face. Thank you Brookie!





I was a bit confused when I saw a random old lady with an even older lady in the front seat of the car, pull into my drive way around 2 pm. She knocked on my door and handed me the most beautiful and delicious smelling flowers I have ever been given. They were from my cute Meagan in Texas. Oh my goodnes, my house smells so good right now, I wish you could smell it Meagan! I know you feel so helpless in Texas and wish you could be here for all of us but the many hours we have spent on the phone and the continous words of love are more then enough for me. Thank you so very much.







When I didn't think that my day could get any better, my 2 fabulous sisters showed up with the best candy bar poster I have ever seen. I started crying when they read it to me, I have never been given a candy bar poster! I took some pictures a.s.a.p and immedietly opened the TWIX because I've been craving one for the last 5 days... ask Annie. We all look a little homeless but honestly, that's how we look 90% of the time and still love each other at the end of the day. You guys will never know how much you mean to me! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.







Later that night I got a phone call from my Momma telling me that she and my Dad had stopped by and left a little something on our porch because we weren't home. I was so sad that we missed them! When I opened the little brown box, I started to cry. My Mom knows how much I love angels and has given me 4 of them now. I love every single one of them and they all mean something different to me. I remember when and why she gave each of them to me and I hold them dear to my heart. This one is called "Sunshine" which is exactly what I needed that day. What an amazing gift. Thank you Mom, I love you!

(Side note: When I showed Hendrix the angel, he took it in his hands and stared at it for a long time before he pointed to the sunflowers and said, "Oh! Those are grapes and quesadillas!" We laughed sooo hard!)






AND....

I don't have a picture of this one but I can't wait one more second for tomorrow to come so that I can enjoy it! My sweet mother in law, Judy, is watching Hendrix tomorrow and sending me on a shopping spree!!!! She stopped by yestserday and told me that she wasn't sure what to do for me during this hard time but knows that shopping ALWAYS puts me in a good mood. She knows me oh so well. Thank you SO SO SO very much Judy. You know I'm smiling right now just thinking about it! You're the best mother in law a girl could ever ask for and I love you so much.




LUCKY, RIGHT???

I am so sorry for you guys and I can't pretend to know what your going through, but I hope you guys won't hesitate to ask for anything. Seriously...I'll take Hendrix for a day for you or whatever you need. You guys are so awesome and I hope and pray things will workout for the best for you guys, whatever that may be. I'm happy that you guys are surrounded with such great family and friends at this time. I'm keeping you guys in my prayers.

I'm glad everyone was there to comfort you! I'm so sorry I'm far away - and then Megan in Texas sends you beautiful flowers... I feel like a slacker! I'll make up for it if you make it down this weekend. Hang in there sis. I'll call you in a bit.
