I wanted to let my SS know that my package has arrived from...... .......
Australia!



I will not open until right before Christmas if that's ok with my SS. I can wait. I'm going to be strong this year.

Besides I need to figure out who my SS is.

Jan won't let you get away with that. She will convince you to open sooner.

Maybe next year?

I think it's only fair to let everyone know I leave for Tennessee in two days and I'm not taking my SS gift. Or maybe I should. Oh you guys are so bad!!! I'm tempted now!!

I am pretty firmly esconsed in the Dark Side, especially when a package arrives before Thanksgiving and I was thrown off by who it was sent from...


I got a BIG package in the mail yesterday from Karen. Since I knew the shape, I had a pretty good idea of what it was, and though I had been told that I would be getting a SS package this week, it didn't really click. Or I made sure it didn't click anyway.


My wonderful, amazing, and still SECRET Santa had Karen make me one of those GORGEOUS wreaths! As you can see, I hung it on my door as soon as I got it (last night), tradition be darned!
It is simply beautiful and it came at just the right time.
So THANK YOU Secret Santa! You've already made my holiday SO much brighter!!!

PICS!



Close Ups:




And Ginger was quite impressed with the box packed with Tissue Paper! She likes to claim the tissue paper, whereas Trent and Mojo like to shred it.

You needed to open that one before Christmas in order to decorate, didn't you?


Look at how sweet Ginger is


We'll get Eva to crack.
