The Appletons Get September Secret Pal Gifts

Ok it is official......the Appletons have the BEST secret pals!!!!!!! We got our Secret Pal box of goodies with the theme for this month, REading is Fun. It came on a day when Susan had had an awful day! What a complete JOY to open up that box and feel the love and thoughtfulness that went into it. We got beautiful books including Lambaroo (which Susan cried when she read it) and the little book by the little girl that was adopted from China, and then we found birthday gifts in there too! Doug's birthday was September 9th and he received a Border's Gift Card while Susan, whose birthday is the 26th of the month received a Gift Card from her FAVORITE restaurant, Olive Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!! We also got hairclips that had school busses and school supplies on them and the little book, The Hungry Catepillar. WOW, what sweet secret pals we have. They certainly go WAY above and beyond what is required and we just want to say a heartfelt, THANK YOU !!!!!!! Our secret pals ROCK!!!!!!
