julie lux (a.k.a. my boss) was in town this past weekend for a wedding and was able to stop by our house for a quick visit. she was a great sport. she seemed to embrace the chaos just fine and made fast friends in both kate and trey. as if her presence wasn't enough she came bearing gifts - great gifts by all standards. a tastey bottle of meritage for peter and i to enjoy - which we promptly did friday night. trey received a new truck and couldn't have been happier. it holds two cute little people that he has named ethan and emma.
julie must tune into the blog every now and again because she couldn't have found a more interesting gift for kate....a live butterfly garden. the set comes with a voucher that you return by mail and within days live caterpillars are delivered to your door. within 10 days the contents of the set will complete their metamorphosis right before our very eyes. i am thinking this may become a favorite gift of our to give this year. for more information you can check it out at www.insectlore.com
all in all a great visit! hope it won't be the last one.
the final picture here is just a treasure kate found on her way back up to the house after mailing her coupon off to insect lore... it is just a dead snail - but don't try telling her that. she has fondly named it sophie, made it a comfy place to live and has decide to keep it as her pet.
