Christmas in July!

We received our shipment of 178 boxes from Prague this week! We hadn't seen these things for over a year and the kids (even mom and dad) were elated to see our long-lost "stuff." Xander had never seen so many toys in all his life, that he can remember. Emma was dancing around the house with her two stuffed puppies, now re-united after one was in storage in Belgium for a year. There were many other favorite toys and items that made us so happy : ) We've kind of been living with the minimum "stuff" for the past year. Christian and I worked SO hard to get most of the boxes unpacked and put away. We still have some to go, but we've made good progress. As the movers were bringing things in, Christian called up the stairs - "Jennie, are we going to have enough room for all your kitchen stuff?!? Every other box says 'kitchen' or 'porcelain'." : ) I love my pottery - it makes my heart go thump, thump, thump : ) In my defense, Christian had almost as many boxes of books. I guess we all have our weaknesses.
