More thankfulness...

Continuing with Monday's post, today I am writing more about the things that I am thankful for! And once again, my twitter and blog friends stole the show!

My friend 3barefeet tweeted a couple of weeks ago that her son, "Monkey", was supposed to bring something that started with an "E" for show and tell at school. Monkey asked if he could bring Elle to show and tell! How cute is that? Unfortunately Monkey lives in Colorado, so Elle wasn't able to make it for Show and Tell (too bad, Elle loves kids! and she would have been a hit!), but I e-mailed Monkey some pictures of Elle to take!

As a thank you (since, ya know, I worked REALLY hard on sending those pics via email!), I got the sweetest package ever from Monkey and Mama, which included lots of treats for Elle from their local store in Colorado (so funny - we picked up the package from the package room in the garage of my building and Elle went NUTS. She just KNEW there was something good inside for her!), a Whole Foods gift card for me, a sweet handwritten note from Monkey, and these adorable pictures, which are now displayed on my bulletin board in my kitchen!

Me and Elle

My favorite part of this pic is obviously that he made sure to give her a pink collar!! 

How freaking cute are those pics?!
Thank you so much to 3barefeet and Monkey, your sweet package definitely lifted my spirits and I smile every time I see Monkey's drawings in the kitchen!

I also got a sweet card from my ambulance chaser friend Kristin, which her hilarious and adorable son Ean picked out. Ean is a big Elle fan too! They also sent me a gift card, which was totally not deserved but much appreciated!

And of course I can't forget my wonderful and hilarious friend and sorority sister, Sarah, who recently hopped on the twitter bandwagon. She sent me the sweetest card and picture this week just to let me know that I am loved, which totally touched my heart and made me smile. And as if that wasn't enough she also got me a Bliss gift card so I can have a little pampering. I can't decide if I want to treat myself now or wait until January/February when I'm up to my ears in bar exam studying again to use it!

Thank you so much to my wonderful friends... both "real" and "virtual". And I know I have said it before but thank you to everyone who sends me e-mails or comments on the blog. They all mean so much to me!

I am feeling very loved this week, and you all have made me smile more than you can imagine!
