I will most more at length later and tell folks things I recieved. Bradley is going to be waking up soon for his diaper change and a feeding and DH and I still haven't had dinner (8pm here).

But THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

Maybe tonight.....


There is also the guilt factor. I haven't sent my gift out yet. I don't want it to arrive too early.

I, of course, hate them because there's little sparkly fibers all over my house and I'm constantly having to vacuum (even more often than usual for three long haired cats) to get them up!!!

I recived my package last night and I am being very good at not opening anything until I figure out the clues.

My SS lives in Texas, Near Fort Bragg and According to the BOLD letters in my clues I am being wished a "Merry Christmas From Lexi" Who is a beautiful calico.

I have sent a message to the person I suspect I'll let you know if it pans out!

I'm leaning toward the dark side...... but I can't open anything until I get home tonight I will take pictures!

Her other clues are much easier to figure out though.

I checked...there's not! Here's the kicker, though...it's a box with a lid, and a ribbon around it. I'm pretty sure that whatever is inside is not wrapped...all it would take would be a pull of the ribbon, and a flip of the lid...

Ok, and now finally the pics I promised.. Been really busy but got a little time now!



Here is the gift being inspected by border partol.

My camera ate the two pics I had of everything wrapped all pretty and the one of the chocolate up close but, here's one with the last unopened gift that Kitters was trying to keep from me!

You can see all the goodies in this one except the Sudoku book still wrapped.
From left to right: On the purple box (which is my box of greeting cards) is the chocolate!! The brown smaller one is a Godiva dark chocolate with extra dark ganache, the green bag is Russel Stover german black forest truffle (I had some of those already!) Behind Kitters you can just see the top of the folding mirror with the Korean scene on it. It's really cute, wish it showed better. Then you see, partially, Kitters 5 pack of colored mice, then her four pack of colored pom pom balls. Then there is the green kitty ornament and the pack of cinnamon tea light candles from Yankee Candle. They smelll so good! And of course under Kitters is the Easy Sudoku book! That thing is fun! Behind Kitters bootie is her three plastic jingle bell balls, you'll see then in another pic.



Kitters still keeping my last present but knocking down the pom pom balls to try and get them out!


Here is me taking a picture of the super cute kitty ornament and Kitters taking the ornament!


Here's all of Kitters new toys! 4 pom pom balls, 5 colored mice and 3 plastic balls with jingles inside!


My mouse mom!!

So those are the pics I promised guys! I love it all and Kitters does too! I use that book almost every night and Kitters hasn't even lost one ball yet, she's had all four pom poms out since, I put her other toys except one mouse in her toy box so she has something later to play with too!

Thanks again Beth!
