I asked the guy who usually helps me to help me find the right fit. He not only did that but packed it all in as well, saved me money by using a flat rate envelope. I had tried to do that but couldn't get in all in, but he did!! So there are really nice postal workers out there!

    Hi everyone! Just wanted to say I've missed the swap and I'm so glad I joined again this month! I've already thanked my Pal but wanted to do it here also! So BIG Thank You to Diane Lynn, great pkg! I'm so glad you liked your goodies Carfty KK (Kristin)! Seems like my life has been so busy the last few months! Daughter got married the end of March,know some of you know how hectic that can be! LOL! Then I also made flowers, decorated and basically was the wedding planner for a friend of mines daugthers in April! She was a typical bridezilla, more so to her Mom, but it still turned our really pretty and she and her Mom were both very grateful! My DH has been laid off since Nov. and Thank the Lord!! he got a call from his boss today and is on his way to a meeting so hopefully he'll go back to work on Monday! We are both so blessed and thankful! We picked our 4th five gallon bucket of green beans today and I've already canned 12 quarts. Haven't even started snapping the ones we picked today! DH has pulled over 500 pounds of honey this week, but I can't help with that until he starts putting it into jars. I'm allergic to bees! He still has at least that much more to get. Then add 4 yr old grandson into the mix! Soo, we've been sorta busy! LOL! My DIL and Granddaughter will be here from Ohio this weekend until after Memorial Day, she's in the USAF and is here TDY and my Son will be here next Thurs., along with my DD and her family. Can't wait to see them all! My daughters 2 kids will be with us a month after they go back home, they are already out of school for the summer. But like I said before life is good and we're very blessed!! Great pkgs ya'll and hope ya'll have a great day! Got to get started on those beans and get done before I pick up the 4yr olds brother and sister! Almost forgot Krystyna I voted for #5 hope you win!
    Blessings! Crafty Darlene
