Our Very First Gift!!

March 31st, 2010 by     


About thirty minutes after arriving home from work yesterday… the doorbell rang.  When I got to the door there was a large box from Crate and Barrel on our doorstop.

When I opened the larger Crate & Barrel box...inside was this beautiful wrapped box.

I was delighted to bring it in and open it.  My bridal shower is scheduled for April 10th, 2010 and this was the very first gift to arrive.  I began opening it…

Inside was…

The 5 piece Parker Bowl Set (For some reason the picture of the actual bowls when they arrived...wouldn't upload, so here is the photo from the website.)

I love these mixing/serving bowls from Crate and Barrel.  They were sent from my Uncle Bob, Aunt Ellen, and their two children -Dan and Andrea who live in Connecticut.

The card that was inside.

They will be traveling down to Virginia for our July 17, 2010 wedding and I am delighted to be able to see them.  When I was five years old I was a flower girl in their wedding.  So it is very special to me that our first gift arrived from them.  I cannot wait to come home from work tonight and to use one of the mixing bowls to make a batch of chocolate chip cookie dough brownies to bring in to work tomorrow for a work function.
