Are you supposed to leave mail on your mailbox for the mailman to pick up? or was that just "back in the day?"

Today I had left about 8 envelopes on my mailbox and I was at home when he delivered my mail. I muted the tv as he was walking up and then I heard in a loud voice as he stepped onto my porch, "OH MY GOD. UGGGGHHHHH!!!!" It was so loud it embarrassed me....

So I decide to walk outside and he was in between my house and my neighbor's so I grab my mail and call out, "Sorry." He turns around and stammers, "Oh, no it's okay. Have a great day!"

It was pretty funny, but I don't know that I will leave any mail out there again. Maybe he was just having a bad day.

To be more Green this November...

The Reeds are changing back to powder laundry detergent.

Because...

1) I'm tired of buying those big, bulky, plastic containers...that are hard to recycle.
2) Cardboard is picked up to be recycled in Childress.
3) It's cheaper.

Trick or Treat







Halloween was so much fun this! We went to TxDOT first. Going in there she had no idea what was going on but by the time we left she was all about Trick or Treating!!!
She knew all she had to do was carry that bag and people would happily give her some candy!
After TxDOT we went out to eat dinner...she was so good especially since Daddy was sneaking her some M&Ms.
We stopped by the house for a diaper change and as I was taking her out of the car seat she screamed, "Noooo. More candy!!!" I thought we have created a monster!
We got home that night around 9 and she was running all over the house! I had to get the video camera out because she wouldn't stop for anything. She was stripped down to her diaper, running around screaming, "Piper" at the top of her lungs! Our dog just looked at her like she was crazy. Poor Piper, she just wanted back outside!
If Halloween was this much fun I can't wait until Christmas!!!
