I wrote yesterday about being home in Nebraska this past weekend. One day I went to put some mail in my parents' mailbox when I realized Jeremy was right all along. Ever since he first came to my house in 1995 he always joked about our giant mailbox. I never thought it was that big or weird, it was the mailbox I grew up with and probably the only mailbox I'd ever really known. But after spending the last 10 years opening a "city mailbox" I finally realized Jeremy is right, our mailbox IS huge!
Last time Jeremy and I were both at my house in Nebraska over Thanksgiving, Jeremy wanted to prove his point and show that our mailbox was so big, you could fit a small child in it. Sure enough, Emily fit right in!


I just got these pictures from my mom; she took them last November. So here's to crazy country mailboxes!

No matter how many times I look at those pictures, they're still really cute and funny. I wonder what the mailman would say?
These are great!! Who knew you could stick a child in a mailbox! THAT IS A HUGE MAILBOX!!
that mailbox IS huge!! Who in the world gets THAT much mail?!?! :-) Those pics are cute though, the kids look like they were enjoying their time in the mailbox!
HOW absolutley fun to meet you! I love Susanne and I do remember those darling "cover children." On their way to becoming celebs with their grandmother. Couldn't be two more blessed children. Thanks for visiting my blog. IT is always a joy to connect with the "family" we haven't yet met. We have lots in common: I too taught high school for many years before mine came along. One of mine lives next door to you in WI. Blessings...
WOW, Now that's one big mailbox. It's like mailbox on steroids...country style
Josh said that he alwasy knew your mailbox was big, but he never realized it was THAT big! We drove out to your parents to see if Josh would fit, but he couldn't quite pull it off!
