Mailbox Surprises

Many of you know..I AM A READER. I love to read. So, there is this trilogy called Hunger Games. The first book was intense and I couldn't wait for the 2nd one. So, I pre-ordered it. Last Wednesday, it arrived, via UPS. When I got home from work, Gracie came out and told me that the UPS guy had brought my book and he had kicked Arrow, our dog. I told her that he was probably scared that he was going to get bit. Happens to them a lot, so they are kind of scared of dogs and take precautionary measures. She was not happen. In fact she was quite bent out of shape. I calmed her down and told her that the dog needed to be kept away when someone like that was outside. I thought nothing more of it.

I took last Friday off, to spend some time with Tony, while he was off. We happened to get 4 days together! Holy Moly!!! I was so happy to get to spend time with him. Friday morning, we dropped the kids off at school, and took Tony's semi to the repair shop. Then we headed off to breakfast. After we finished I took Tony back to pick up the semi. I headed home and started cleaning. MUCH later, Tony finally made it home. He had stopped and gotten the mail out, while he came in. He handed me a letter and said what is this. This is weird. It was an envelope, with our return address sticker on it. The to address was UPS Ground, and a bunch of numbers (which we later discovered were on the side of a UPS box). On the back was another of our address stickers and a stamp. And....it was Gracie's handwriting. So, I opened it. This is what I found.

That's my daughter! LOL So, UPS guys...don't kick her dog! Tony and I were shocked...but this is so Gracie. She is an animal lover and she did NOT like to see her dog get kicked. When we told her we had found it, she just put her hands over her face and turned red. LOL This baby is going in the scrapbook for sure!
