The Official "I received my SS gift" Thread

[esrgirl]

I ordered the gift a few days ago, but it's saying it could take up to two weeks for it to be delivered! Someone in the UK is going to have to wait a while! My apologies

Fantastic gifts everyone!

It's great to see how everyone shopped for their SSs!!

Ooooh, is it me?!

Perhaps it's Jessy? Did Jessy get a SS present yet?

I have that Bad Cats book and every time I read it I howl with laughter and cry. Funny pictures of cats are just, well FUNNY!

Anakat,
I finished opening the presents that Sam had started on yesterday, he just would not leave them alone. And I didn't want to be responsible for you being

(wow, it's a tough SS crowd here, isn't it?)
I love all the presents and I really appreciate hand-made gifts since I do lots of fiber activities. The scarf is beautiful, I don't think my picture does it justice. The note cards are lovely, the x-stitch teapot magnet adorable, the Madeline bookmark is so cute, the tee shirt and key chain are so British (yeah!), the Cat of Glory in his box, and the Fin Carre dark chocolate and a cross stitch kit for me are fabulous. I cannot thank you enough for all the time and effort you put into my gifts.
Oh, I didn't mention the Christmas card, it is cross stitched too, what a nice touch.

Sam says

to you! Pru and Clio haven't discovered theirs yet.
Thank you so much and Merry Christmas to you!

I feel the same way, but I'm sure our SS will like their gifts just fine. It's the anticipation of getting something that is the most exciting part *smile*
It's my first time doing this SS thing and I'm a little nervous too. But it will all be good.

 

[katachtig]

So much work and thought have been going into these gifts.

And I don't know why we keep bugging the recipients to open the gifts since our cats seem to want to open them first.

 

[pami]

More wonderful gifts! Anakat, how thoughtful those were!

She got me: a cute pair of toe socks with kitties on them, an awesome "ugly cats" book I've wanted forever, two really neat looking wooden kitty figures (I'm thinking about putting them in my new kitchen), a kitty frame, and a fleece blanket (a great gift - I've been telling Erik how much I want one every time we go to Target/Wal-Mart, but it's a "want"...not a "need"...lol)

Here's a picture of all the gifts minus the fleece blanket (it's a pretty deep blue):


My kitties got: a box of AWESOME toys they just love, and a container of kitty treats (Pounce moist treats are one of their favorites - great pick!)

Thanks so much again!! I was worried I overbought for my SS, but I got her about the same amount of gifts so no worries anymore. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas, and that you get a gift just as wonderful as yours to me.

Wow, those are some great great gifts!!! I almost bought those same kittys for my SS!! They are too cute!

Me too!! But they did give us hints, so I'm sure we will be alright...PLUS we all have different tastes...I think anything people get, they will be happy and grateful..

...I hope

This is my first time too.....I"m a bit nervous as well....but here goes nothing! Off to the post office!

(If I can just get my darn cats out of the box long enough to tape it up.

)

 

[alikatt]

Alright, I opened the box!

My SS ROCKED!

I have a ton of pictures, but I will post the jist of it all shortly. Is it ok to post pictures with the cats involved in the undertaking... or takeover I should say? Just wanted to check. Now... if I could ONLY figure out who you are!!!! Thank you so much. You hit every nail on the head, and everybody has presents. It was so great. I'll post pictures, like I said shortly, but I am going to try and figure out who you are

Ok, I'm editing, because I THINK I found you out. So, I'm calling out chichismom. Question is, am I right?
