The scan of this does not do it justice.  There are sparkles!!!

This was a gift from a lovely, lovely swap-bot person.

She knows the way to my heart!

Alta Gracia

This beauty is from my cutie.  He sent it to me when he went to Argentina in February.  This is a church in the town he is from. 

 The postcard was sent in an envelope & above is the postage.

Index Postcards from my son

My youngest son and daughter decided to get in on the postcard fun.  So they each put out a little mailbox next to their bedroom doors and began making homemade postcards from a stack of index cards that they found somewhere.

This is the first one that Lucas made: Idaho Potato

Just in case he made sure that we didn't think his drawing was a pickle.

Mailbox photos will be coming as soon as I get them uploaded.

Have a great weekend!

Amook Island, Alaska

 So lovely!
