We got a present!!!

A couple of weeks ago [livejournal.com profile] cheshire_monkey wanted to send something overseas. So I gave her our address.....and yesterday a gift arrived. And it's cool and Fireflyish and cute, the child couldn't wait and took them to show-and-tell at school today. A set of goslings to juggle, contained in a Chinese Take-out container. So check out the photos, if I can make them work. The child is the blond, cute one - I am not.

Thanks so much [livejournal.com profile] cheshire_monkey we love them.

The geese in person

The child with the geese

Juggling geese

Me and him (hope I'm not too scary *grins*)

Good story, but the best part was having a face to go with the woman I'm getting to know. You aren't scary at all. I love your glasses!

I have to tell you, the picture took my whole screen up and opened slow, top to bottom. So for a time, all I saw were books. Being the reader nerd I am, I was like "booooooooooooks."

Thought you could relate.

How cute! What a nice prezzie to get in the post.

Nice to see what you and your son look like, bookaddict43..

Aww - geese! What a neat gift! Also, it *is* great to put a face with the name XD Thanks for the pictures :D

Awwww... you're very welcome. I'm so glad you like them.

And thanks for aharing the pics - they are wonderful! I love having faces to go with my flist. Scary? Pffft. Not in a million years. You two are adorable. Yay!

Thanks for being my first overseas address. You probably would have laughed yourself silly at my paranoia of filling out customs forms and DESCRIBING what was in the box. Something about stuffed animals and instructions for juggling said animals. It was terrible (but I'm useless under pressure).

Love the geese! Now the child must learn to juggle them!

And I loved seeing a picture of you, you look like such a Mom! *you know in the bestest possible way* It's so nice to see pics of people (and no, I'm not brave enough to post any of me, even if I had any digital ones). Hey, btw, send me your address again, I've lost it.
