My new mailbox!

This is the letter I got in my mailbox! MEAN! This picture was suppose to be after the next one but this is what is under a mailbox! Who knew??
This is what my mailbox looked like! I know it is bad. The neighborhood kids kicked in the side that was not being used! I knew it needed to be replaced but I had no idea how you switch out a mailbox! Nor did I know that it was even my responsibility! I have bought 3 houses and when I bought them the mailbox just came with it! I guess I never put very much thought in to it! But I think the letter I received was mean! Just knock on my door and tell me I am white trash and need to do some yard work and fix the stupid mailbox!



So I sent my muscles out to fix the problem! I thought this thing would be extremely hard to remove because it was huge! Kayt gave it one big kick and she took care of it!


Thanks to my 2 little brothers who helped with the assembly this is the new mailbox!

Just for the record this is the second letter I have received about something stupid! The first one was a copy of the Draper ordinances about garbage cans! Apparently you may not store your garbage cans where they are visible from the street! I think all of this just proves you can take the girl out of West Valley but you cannot take the West Valley out of the girl!! I'm just not made to live in a snobby city!! (Don't get offended Mom!)

I think your new mailbox looks super classy. Also, my favorite pic is the one where Kayt tore down the old mailbox. If only they'd had super classy mailboxes for 50% off at the rite aid the other day!!! Oh well, at least we got some other sweet steals.

Jill I don't even know what to say!! I think I never realized your mailbox. Or I would have put the letter in there myself. (LOL) You are not white trash. You have a lot going on. Your way of thinking is if it works. Why fix it!!! Nothing wrong with that! I think it is rather hilarious!!!

You are just lucky to have two brothers to fix stuff like that! Who do you think puts stuff like that in there?

You should have got a nascar mailbox then you would have really nasty notes in your mailbox.

You're lucky you don't live in a tough town. Around here we would just cut you down to size with the week whacker and throw you in the fish pond.

week = weed

Kayt is so strong I think she could handle a mailbox.

The mailbox is very up town Draper. What every that means.
