Who is my SS? who who?
Is that the same as Little Christmas? I should save them till then.
Seems so. Maybe a very light sider or a dark sider for Ukrainian Christmas! lol
Give it a day or so and I bet it'll be easier to narrow down your options!
Who is my SS? who who?
Ukrainian Christmas starts on January 6th and finishes on January 7th. My Mom was Ukrainian Catholic and we celebrated both Christmas and Ukrainian Christmas.

Okay, here goes. I can't be a total lightsider this year because I'm driving down Christmas morning to spend the day with my mother -- without the kitties. I figured I could just kind of sneak up on the darkside. There are 12 presents in the package. Starting yesterday I'm opening three a day, so I'll finish up on Christmas Eve.

First thing out of the box -- kitty toys! (er, packing paper)
All the presents together, along with the three cats who weren't napping
After I took the picture I had to put the presents away. Shareena is a little too interested in the ribbons on the presents.
A card that my SS said to open immediately. Inside I've been given strict instructions. The presents are all numbered and I'm to open them in order.
What's the box with the word 'loft' on it?

Neko Flies mouse toy was an instant hit. Iris prefers to play with the string, which made the mouse jump all over the place for the other kitties.
Even Cali came out from under the table to attack it
I'm sure you noticed the duckbilled cat toys that were used to decorate some of the presents, one for each of my cats. I tried to get a picture of each cat with his/her namesake, but they weren't exactly cooperating with the photo op.

Miss Patchwillow & Merlin. "Who cares about toys when I can harass the Monkey (Merlin)?
Sunday's gifts coming up soon.

No Ukrainian Catholic and Russian Orthodox are different.Is that the same as Russian orthodox?
My grandparents both sides were ukrainian Jews who went to England in the beginning of the 1900's

Anyway merry Christmas.

Yes, where are our pictures????
AHEM. LIGHTSIDERS, WHERE ARE YOU??????
Oh YAY, I'm so glad everything arrived in one piece.LittleOne napping on the box. This became her favorite napping place! See, I told you I can't use his phone!
Box is open!!!
Everything on display (please pay no attention to the wall behind the pellet stove. We are still finishing the dry wall and the mudding of it got...ummmm...stalled?)
2 shot glasses from CA (we collect shot glasses). Now, I just need to visit so I can honestly say "I was there"
3 adorable ornaments, 1 kitty 1 doggy and a surfin starfish (LOVE that one!). We didn't put up a tree this year but they will be put in a very safe place for next year.
I have to get ready for dinner, so more pics later (if my puter cooperates!!) but we also got a very beautiful poinesetta (sp? you know, the red Christmas flower) ornament that can be clipped at the end of a branch. The pic actually doesn't do it justice. Also received a lovely smelling candle and handmade cherry-almond soap and candybars! (does one of the bars have pop-rocks in it????) And thank you for sending 2 peanut butter chocolate bars because DH stole one as soon as he saw it! Oh, and the furry kids got kitty treats and toys and the dogs got treats (which they love) and a tug rope toy. They've been busy girls out in the yard. Thank you so much for everything! Like I said, I'll attempt to post the rest of the pics later tonight or tomorrow if my computer likes me (should have asked Santa for a new one this year!)
Some similar but different names.Is that the same as Russian orthodox?

Pop rocks? Is it not maybe crisp rice.
Oh YAY, I'm so glad everything arrived in one piece.I was kind of worried about the starfish. And I'm glad the dog treats were good, I've never bought treats for dogs before! LOL Pop-rocks in the chocolate? Definitely not, though honestly I can't think what that might be. Which one was that? You said DH liked peanut butter but I'm not a good baker and thought you all would be better off with something NOT baked by me!
