No clue as to who my SS is.
That hint will probably be in the next package.

Dear SS, as I was admiring the wreath I was reminded of how my Mom would make wreaths (funerals, holidays). It was a pleasant memory. (Mom died this past July.
)
Glad it got there OK and that it gave you a good memory of your mother.


I can help with the pics as I have the ones I sent to your SS.

I just thought of looking on Karen's site to see if my wreath was there and Voila! She beat me to it. It's probably a better pic than I could get.

It has jingle bells on it and when Aristotle heard them he came running. His fave toys have jingle bells on them. I hope he doesn't think my wreath is his new toy.

Wow, two early gifts. How cool for you both! I could use a good crockpot recipe book. Nice easy meals since I'm bogged down with work and school. Karen, you make awesome wreaths! I wonder if my SS will make me wait.
I'm firmly rooted on the dark side and I don't think even a warning to not open unitl Christmas would stop me... it might slow me down.... might...

My SS strikes again! I just got a box of chocolates in the mail!
with the note to open immediately.... as if I wouldn't


It is from a different location than the first gift too, so my SS is being veryyyyy sneaky!

I'm sure they will be gone by morning

Yummy! I wonder what else you'll get. And restraint?! With a not to open immediately, who needs restraint?!
