We've Been Jingled!!!

It's so much fun to see something you've started actually "take root" and grow! Since I am NOT a gardner by ANY means, I'll settle for this instead... Sunday when we came home from church, we were happy and surprised to see a mysterious gift bag sitting by our back door. In it, there was a note (kind of funny - it was a color copy of the one WE had left before - hmmmmm..wonder who "jingled" us?! :)), a "You've Been Jingled" sign, a beautiful ornament for our tree, and even some candy canes and CHOCOLATE!!! The kids were so excited (I was excited about the chocolate, for sure!) !! We immediately hung the ornament on the tree, divided up the candy, and donned our sign on the front door for all to see! Then we realized - we have to Jingle two more!!! Our wheels are turnin' and as soon as our little ice storm clears up, we'll be on the prowl again!!!

I hope we get jingled back!
I have a hilarious story for you- after church we ate at the mexican resturant and our neighbors were there that we jingled- she came over and said- you jingled us! I denied it and acted like I didn't know what in the world she was talking about- then she said, I know it was you b/c there were Star Wars characters drawn on the back of the construction paper! We all busted out laughing- couldn't deny that! Hee Hee! They had already made their signs and were going that night. I hope it comes back around to us so we can do it again. She was going to jingle Kelly and Eric Walker- they live down our street. I'm in Birmingham, AL until Friday- I'm missing my family! :( Have a great week.
