When I came back from IST I had this waiting for me at the post!! I had been gone a month and it was great to get all of these packages for Easter!!
From my family
Jen sadly the reeses peanut butter ships did not make the journey. My kids did enjoy have chuncks of the stuff!!
From my family. The grand War and Peace which I then finished in 2 weeks!!
From my family again, they really do love me! 
This is a glorious package that I shared with all my neighbor kids from my RPCV friend Rab and his co-worker Patty. The girls loved all their hair ties and wore them on Easter!
My good friend Fang send this package over with tons of goodies the I scarfed down within a week. The kids thought the peeps were very interesting. 
This is from a future Burkina Faso Volunteer coming this June, Emma P. So kind and I have never even met her before. Some people are so kind and amazing.
Tons of fun goodies from my family. That Nacho cheese sauce is FANTASTIC! It took me about 2 weeks to finish all those care packages. Man I ate like a queen.
This care package is from my longtime friend Rebes (Forbes Hall, hollar). She is a RPCV from Benin and knows her stuff about African heat. That Dr. Brommers pepperment soap is AMAZING!!! Go out and get some ASAP. I shower with it every night before I go to bed and it cools me off RIGHT AWAY, so tingely!
Goodies galore from my family. They are SOOOO GOOD TO ME. I had been craving that cereal since the thief stole it in January. I have already used up all of that Franks Red Hot sauce. In this package I also got letters from the 7th grade Silver Knights that I write to in the USA. My neighbor kids LOVED the French singing card. Ohhh Marshmellows and a a NEW BOX OF CRAYONS
My sister Ann has been working on making Family movies of things while I am away. She then sends me over DVDs of the Movies. These entertain me for hours and help with the homesickness. That is my bro in the top right hand corner saying hello with his ladyfriend. The ones with my Dad are the FUNNIEST!!
Jen has become a MASTER at packing me care packages. This one was packed to the hilt with goodies and Worchester sauce. I was amazed by how much I loved the applesauce. It is great when I cannot get any fruit for weeks at a time.
My last care package which took only 15 days to get to me. It was my last package before heading to the UK on holiday. It was all gone in a week. The magazines kept me busy for a day or two. This one was from my family. THANK YOU!!!
