(Jake didn't want to post this first photo at first...but I really loved it and asked him to post this other photo...it's just AMAZING and I love seeing it!!...so thank you, Jake, for this gift to your Mama! :)
Anne's ~ a surprise in the mail from a very new and hopefully growing friendship, Rachel (or, as I had to describe you to Jake and Sam when they asked who the package was from, "Ya know at the conference, that family we saw in the ice cream shop...the woman with the cool hair...and her boys Max and Otto?"...they both actually stopped me with, "Yup...yup..." before I got to the Max and Otto part, because they remembered you, Rachel, and they *both* asked, "The one with the German husband, right?"...is he German?...they're more observant than I am...) :
