This is a copy of an email I sent out in April. Since my reefs came in handy last night(4th of July) I thought it fitting to post here for those who didn't see it the first time or those who need a laugh! Original with spelling errors and all.
Friedns and Family,As most of you know we are moving to Atlanta Georgia(Alpharetta to be exact).The movers came today and boxed up nearly all ourbelongings in one day...it was to take two days.So I am writing this little email to keep you allabreast of our moving saga...oops journey!As I was winding down my night and reflecting on theday and how emotional it was watching 4 people pack upour home of nearly 9 years in just hours,I thought oftwo things everyone must have when moving.A three year old and a pair of Reef sandals.A three year old to make you laugh (although I wasn'tlaughing when it happened)... by overflowing thetoilet with 1/2 fresh roll of toilet paper for asimple"pee pee" adventure to the bathroom. And 20minutes later throwing all the pool toys, goggles etc.into the pool after I had just swam to the bottom ofthe pool and retrieved them early that day. I hadsince showered and changed into fresh clothes.You can say we are a family of 4 now!!!! :)
And my reefs.... as I grab the last bottle of Pete'sWicked Strawberry Blonde Ale from my desertedrefrigerator, I realize that all the bottle openersetc are packed.... Yes, packed...everytihng boxed,taped, labeled.As I hang my head down in disappointment andfrustration I realize I am wearing my reef sandalsgiven to me by my husband last summer. One of the fewpairs of shoes not boxed, taped and labeled...probably because I was wearing them. Do you know what is on the bottom of reef sandals?A bottle opener!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you hun.If my grammer is incorrect and spelling atrocious wllit's 11:20 at night atnd my Strawberry blonde is gone!Enjoy your day!Catherine

OMG! I so thought of you and this e-mail just earlier this evening....as I reached into the mostly melted cooler from yesterday to have the one Corona that was left and could not find my opener. I searched all over and you came to mind of that eventful day and I so wished I had your reefs....
Love this, you always make me smile:)
I'm so happy you are blending into a "southern lady."
Take care and love to "y'all",
Carol
