I have my SS gifts with me and will be mailing them after work today.

Still loving that fleece blanket, between that and three dogs, I am nice and toasty when in my La Z Boy! The Chihuahua loves to burrow under it and nap.
 
I got my SS gift over the weekend!! I was so excited..... so of course I opened it!

My SS was Karen Sanford (aka lilnickers) and what a great SS she is!!

She sent me lots of Christmas stuff... which I LOVE!!

I got a Christmas welcome banner which I hung by my front door, Christmas pot holders (which i was gonna buy the other day and for some reason didnt), a horsey ornament and a snowman ornament that are so cute and some Christmas socks. She also sent me a Rooster picture which I love so much!!

What great gifts!! I am so excited!!

LOL I also got a book, Liberty in Miniature by Pat Elder, some dog biscuits for my border collie, Rusty. He told me to say thank you. I also got a cappuchino/mug combo. Thank you!

Louise, I'm so glad it arrived safely. I looked up your town on a map and read a little about the area. The town has such an attractive, intriguing name. That was fun to do! I had fun being your Santa.

Robin thank you so much for my gifts. I just love The Pooka! I received a beautiful mug and mouse pad with The Pooka on them. I also got a large magnetic picture frame. Sorry I'm terrible with pictures but what a great surprise to get my first day back to work.

Thank s so very much! I know I was teasing you about taping up The Pooka and shipping him up here...............but you did lol.

Thanks again!
 
Hi Lisa!

Did you eat your candy Santas? I love those!

When you put in your hints about Pooka, I had to be your Santa and get you something with him on it, since I'm keeping HIM LOL! I hope you like that great big mug and mouse pad. I think those frames are neat!

Merry Christmas!

Everyone, I EMAILED everyone on a list I have and I BEGGED them to come and post when they get their gift, and I sent them a link to this thread! Some people I have emailed twice and PMed too. I'm trying very hard to find out for you all if your gifts arrived or not. Most of the people didn't answer me

35 more to go and not much time left

I'm in the same boat, I'm still waiting on its arrival. The only thing good about waiting... It'll be closer to Christmas when I open it, cause once it arrives it doesn't have a chance.

I am waiting too - its very exciting and I wont feel too guilty opening it now we are getting so close to Christmas

I recieved my present in the mail yesterday and I love all of it! I believe my Secret Santa was Ashley Crawley. The return address label said A Crawley from WI so I am almost positive it is her. She couldn't have done a better job of picking out my presents! I got a beautiful hand-made fleece blanket that is so cozy. It is pink (my favorite color) with pink and brown horses on it. I love it!
default_wub.png
It's stunning! I also got various presents from WI, which was really neat because they were from her state. She sent a few of my favorite things to eat/drink....a cute cow that is made of WI cheese (almost too cute to eat!), hot cocoa mix, and WI made candy. I had never heard of them before but she sent the most amazing candy called "cow patties". They are delicious and one of them is already all gone.

I've taken pictures but I am not on a computer right now where I can get to them. I'll try to remember to post them when I get to one.

Thank you so much Ashley for my wonderful gifts and thank you Robin for doing Secret Santa again this year!!

Whew was getting worried there that the package didnt arrive. I hope you liked everything. They dont make small horse treats, so the peppermint ones were the only small enough ones for the minis. ( Makes their breath smell good too when you are getting kisses!

).

The pewter bell is from my state of Maryland where I live.

Merry Christmas!

Thanks Robin for all your wonderful hard work you do to make this fun for us all!!!!!!!!
