Lacey's Awesome Quilt!!!

Lucky Us! Lucky Us! One of the unique things about Jackson is our mail system. The Post Office does not deliver to our homes. Every one in town has a P.O. Box. Each day the locals make their routine visit to the Post Office. This is where we run into EVERYONE we know, visit a little and go on our way. If we don't make it to the post office, the day just feels weird! Another for sure thing is the fact that no matter what time of day you go to the post office, you can be sure to bet that if you need to pick up a package (our box is very small) you are going to stand in a line ~and visit~ for about 10 minutes or so. This is fine, except when you have other things to do, you stand in line for 10 minutes and your present at the end of the wait is a phone book, or better yet Eric's Cabella's catalog!!! ARRGGGHHHH! Well, today I had a "yellow slip" in my box which means there's a package. I have to pee, like I always do. I'm feeling a little down because I have just been to the Dr. and still no baby, and when I leave the Dr.'s office they say "See ya next week" (I'm due this Sat.) So I'm feeling like this little girl will NEVER come!!! I stand in line, trying not to let it show that I have to Go!............ And man was the wait worth it!
The Clerk hands me this box from St. George!!! A package from Lacey!! I can't wait! I waddle out to my car, put the package in and drive home QUICK! I get in the house and doing the pee pee dance, get a knife and cut the tape from the box. Inside........... THE MOST AWESOME QUILT EVER! (And a cute little outfit to boot!) I'm not kidding! Lacey made the sweetest quilt! Nice and THICK for our Mountain weather, the softest thing I've ever felt and the funnest fabric and quilt pattern! Thank you Lacey! We all love it! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! We cant wait to wrap our sweet little one in it! We love you guys!


And now she is here lets add a photo. Lacey, no kidding...... This is Joyah's cozy spot! She snuggles up in this blanket and sleeps for hours! If we put her in anything else, she's just not happy!!! I have a feeling there will be lots of photos with this cloud of pink fluffiness!!

It is awesome isn't it!! I'm the only other one that has got to feel it!! hahaha It is soft!! I'm so sorry you are still pregnant...that is the worst feeling ever to see your due date come and go!! Maybe your little girl will love to have her hair done as much as McKynlee. She LOVES to sit still so that her hair can be cute and everyone will tell her so!!! Love you guys!!
