Mail!

There really are posts with fun birthday festivities in the works, but today when Eli and I unlocked our little mailbox, we found two letters.  Our first snail mail!  It was very exciting, as Eli demonstrates:

 And then, exclaim!

And Eli was so happy, he clapped.

Thanks, Great Grandpa Kauffman and Uncle Barry and Aunt Lynne!  And, in case you're wondering, we ARE restraining ourselves and waiting until Jason gets home from the archive to open them.
