Default Jiminy Cricut! Christmas came early
There was a knock at my door this afternoon. I opened the door to find a package on my door step. It was some books I had ordered. I picked it up & was about to go inside when the post woman yelled that she had another package I had to sign for. I though that my husband might have ordered something. But then she pulled out a big box that was labeled Provo Craft. That intrigued me so did the little cricket picture on the front. It was a Cricut. I couldn't believe it. I wanted one but did not want to fork out the money for one. Too many stamps to purchase first.

The package was from my father. Apparently my father was visiting with his friends. The wife likes to scrapbook and make cards. She told my father that everyone who has these hobbies must have a Cricut. She also told my Dad that they were on sale that week. What a great friend! So my Dad knowing how much I like to make cards and scrapbook, went and bought me one. What a great Dad!:-D

Wow! How awesome is that! Now you can Cricut him a thank you card to show him you'll put it to good use. What a wonderful gift!

Default Hmmmm
Do you think you could get your Dad to call my Dad? Heeheehee. There's only one problem -- my sister stamps,etc. too. So he'd have to get 2. He loves us -- but I'm sure he doesn't love us THAT much..... ;)

Enjoy your Cricut & your dad.
