Giant Green Beans!!!

Funny story. This morning, I got up and went for my run. I noticed the farm aroud the corner had a fresh truckload of corn, so I decided after my run to go get some. Gabe came with me. He helped me count out two dozen, and enjoyed playing with a caterpillar and talking to sweet Miss Daisy. We headed back to the house and I told Gabe we now had some work to do (shucking). As soon as he saw Isaiah in the front yard he yelled "Zay-a! You gotta see dis! We got giant green beans! Dey're HUGE!!!" I realized I had some explaining to do. :) Wait until he finds out where milk comes from! (he learned at a farm last summer when he milked a cow with my Mom, but I'm pretty sure the understanding hasn't sunken in yet)

My sister sent a package to the house...

breathe... breathe... inhale... exhale... "Are you kidding?" was going through my mind... Naturally, I grabbed the camera...

Wow. On her trip to Vegas, my sister was thinking about what to get her big sis! She is so thoughtful and such a joy to be around. I miss her. She always chooses the most luxurious things to spoil me with too. Every Christmas or birthday, she picks out the most beautiful nightgowns, robes, scarves, and now purses! I'm a little scared about getting spit up on it, but I am determined to use this bag and not hide it away in the box. A daily reminder of my sisters thoughtfulness and generosity. Love you Hil!
