The next morning I saw this when I was pulling out of the driveway to go to work:
I have never been more proud!! Some people may think it is super ghetto, but I love it. The best part about it is we actually get mail!!

My husband is better than yours!!
So ever since we moved in our mailbox has been on the verge of falling over. We have been meaning to get a new one, but just haven't gotten around to it yet. Well about a week ago after a really strong wind storm, I came home from work to see the mailbox on the ground. We are in the middle of putting in a vinyl fence and I want the mailbox to match, so we are have been waiting for a custom post to be made. In the meantime we didn't have a mailbox and so we weren't getting any mail. One night after the mailbox had been down for a couple of days I told Colby I was worried about not getting all our bills and his paycheck and said we needed to come up with something until we got the new one put in.

you know that most carriers are ghetto, right? That's why you are now getting mail. Besides, I know the mailman personally and asked a favor in your bahalf......I'll be expecting some C.I.A. cupcakes :)

Love the bungee idea! That is classic...
Welcome to the blogging world!! I am so glad you did it, since we see each other every 3 months, it will be nice to keep in touch!!! Oh, and about the mailbox... looks like something Wes would do... only we said he would use bread ties!!! Awesome... we were both laughing!!! Love the blog...! Call us soon I only have 3 weeks!!!
Welcome to the dark side. Kamille is very persuasive too when it comes to convincing people to blog, so if it's not katie, it will be someone else. Kristy and Wendy are the last hold outs-I wonder if they were this good at withstanding peer pressure in highschool??
I love the mailbox, next time I am east of the freeway, I will make a special trip over just to see the real thing. Do you think we could submit this picture to Jay Lenno and he'd show it on late night?? I think it should win some kind of award.
Okay. Flipping hillarious. Welcome to the blogging world. You'll never look at life the same again.
Thats Awesome!!! I am glad that you joined the blogging world. Now we can stay in touch and now what the heck is going on ineach others lifes!

I found your blog on Anj's and I am excited to see what you two are up to. Might I add I love your husbands craftmanship! Man he can work a tree and a mailbox.
hi cortney,

Your mailbox is famous. I have heard several people talk about it. I will help you get going on your next blog post, take a look at my blog and share you 3 joys, fears, obsessions, goals, etc.
Welcome to the blogging world!!! At some point we all end up weak enough to start. The best part is keeping in touch and I'm so glad I found you on Sara's blog. You two are darling and I absolutely LOVE the 'treebox' mail idea.
Yea! Who cares if you don't have kids, it's fun to see what everyone is up to anyway :) Happy to see you have a blog! Now we can keep in touch.

So i'm pretty offended you started a blog and didn't even let me know... I stumbled upon it looking on Mano's. Welcome! It's about time!
Colby, that is the classiest mail box I have ever seen. Well done buddy. I am glad you guys started a blog, it's fun. . . . like myspace for married people!
Bryce
very nice. i"m suprised they put mail in it! the post man or woman must have felt bad for you and realized they would do whatever it takes to help you out. very cool man, very cool. Anyways, maybe a marathon next summer, but mother nature may have other plans. We'll see. ;)
