Surprise!

Earlier this week I received an unexpected gift from a friend.  It's always a pleasant surprise to get snail mail; but when you open the snail mail and it also contains a gift................I need not say more.  The gifts (yes, there was more than one!) deserve their own (future) blog post so you'll just have to check back in a few days. 

My friend, Beth, lives in Oregon and enjoys farming, animals, crafting, designing cross-stitch patterns and photography.  She posts beautiful photographs of her family and farm on her blog, My Heartstring.  Anyhoo, I wanted to send Beth a special card to express my gratitude.
