Something for Sunday

Wednesday was unusual for us. Unusual in that it was full of fun "thank you" gifts!

This came from "The Swim Gals"--the name my friend, Susan coined in her sweet note to Butch. 
My friends got this collection of ice creams for him as a "thank you" for all his work in getting the pool ready for us every week. I'm grateful for that too! This gift was perfect for him as he LOVES ice cream. He eats it very sparingly--this will last him nearly a month--well, unless I help him. I usually leave the ice cream to him since he loves it so much. For me, I can pass on ice cream unless it's the only sweet in the house--or Pecan Jack's at the beach!

Later the same day, this beautiful flower arrangement arrived.
It's from my granddaughters for the fun trip we had at the beach. They are sweethearts for sure!! I love flowers!

This was the first "thank you" I got that day. It's from my cute, little, 6 year old friend, LaRue. She is the granddaughter of my friend, Nancy.
She painted me this picture as a thank you after the beach trip with her parents. I'm so impressed at the detail of this. Look at that sun. I love how she did the rays. First of all, I would never have thought of that. And if I did, they would have been lines. Even that umbrella--she did such a good job with making the strips look circular. And the dog---OMGosh! Really, it's amazing. I love everything about this. 

She even painted the back.
She was quick to tell me that she had mis-spelled "thank you." Seriously--she's only 6. I think this is pretty darn good. She managed to make those outlined letters. I don't think I can even do that!

LaRue's parents gave us a gift card to Sperry's--our favorite steak place here in Nashville along with a nice note. 

A was a day full of fun surprises--and who doesn't love that??
