Subject: Secret Santa 2009!
Written By: Jessica on 11/12/09 at 9:22 pm
Yes yes, pull out your wallets and get ready for some cheerful message board gift giving! Here are the instructions:
If you want to participate in the Secret Santa exchange, leave a post on here and PM me your address. I will keep a running tally of who is participating. I have checked USPS for holiday shipping dates, so I'm asking that everyone who is going to participate say so BY NOVEMBER 30TH AT 11:59PM CENTRAL STANDARD TIME. Since I'm a night owl, I will draw the names right away and you should have your giftee (is that a word?) and their mailing address in your PMs no later than December 2nd.
That's it! Any other questions, just shoot me a PM or leave it on here. :)
GIFT AMOUNT SHOULD BE NO MORE THAN $10

what did you get????
Oh...duh. She sent me the cutest cell phone charm. It's butterflies and daisies - just my style! And an adorable bookmark. Stainless steel with pink beads and a butterfly. I will take pictures of them and post them. :)
Thanks again Karen! :-*

Glad you liked them both. I was a little unsure, I'll confess. Just because someone says they like butterflies it doesn't neccesarily mean they likeeverything with a butterfly on it. I did think the phone charm was cute.

OK - it is official, I just got my Secret Santa gift sent out... I guess I am trying to make the Christmas Season last a little longer. Sorry for the delay, school does not leave out till 3:20 and the post office here (within 10 miles) closes at 3:00 and is not open on weekends for business, so today I had off to take the girls to the dentist and I got it done. Hope you like it ;)

OMG - I LOVE IT :D I just got it, we got the mail late - actually I was too lazy to go down the lane and get the mail, through the cold pouring rain today. So we just got the mail, on our way in from Christmas. It is the best gift, I have been given in a long time! A gift certificate for prime wine - YEAH
Now who from? LaGrange, Illinois... only one I know from Illinois - Jess?????
Someone please tell me, I want to know, I want to know, I want to know who to thank!
P.S. I hope who I had, gets theirs soon. It should be there! perhaps soon

Belle,
I GOT it - and I really, really do love it. And to figure it out by researching my back posts, even more touching ( :-\\ err - perhaps I drink too much wine!).
Cheers, and Bottoms up!

Sami, I am overjoyed by all of my beautiful gifts! You managed to address all of my favorite things. There's an adorable cow coffee mug with slip-grip udders, a funky zebra print coffee mug snuggy, a stunning leopard print scarf ( that my husband swears he would have bought for me if he had seen it first) and a dark chocolate Godiva bar (which my daughter Erin commandeered)! I marvel that you were able to stay at the $10 limit and I envy your shopping savvy.
Thank you again so very much :)

I am glad you like it - I saw so much fun stuff I loved it all. And I figured if I liked it, then you would too!... I thought the cow mug was fitting from me in Iowa. I thought the leopard scarf was soft and snuggly, with just enough shimmer, that it would help keep the New York chill off and still be stylish. And of course I wanted to stay green - so I thought the reusable coffee snuggy was an economic decision (and they had a great sale going on those - I bought several for others).... But it answers the question, hmmm I bought my favorite chocolate, I wonder where it went? ;D ;D ;D
I am glad you like it! Sorry it was little late :-[
Thanks for everything Ladybug - Thanks

I was kinda busy. Last year I messed it up, not keeping track of all the participants. I will bring the boards "Virtual Valentine" in Feb. How's that?

I was cleaning the other day and found the list from last year! Looks ok to me. Well, I like the idea of spreading out the gifting around here.
I'll begin sign up start of Feb. http://www.inthe00s.com/smile/14/love7.gif for valentine's.

Just realised I forgot to say we opened ours at the weekend. Cat and Carlos sent me some Ferrero Rocher chocolates (apparently they're for sharing with the rest of the family :\'( ) and a book by Winston Churchill. I am going to start the book this afternoon whilst the children are having their music lessons.

Well, you didn't HAVE to tell the family that the chocolate was for everyone. ;) I just didn't want them to think they I forgot them in case they were around when you opened it.
I do hope you enjoy the book, though.
