Wow my Secret Santa surprised me big time with early gifts! I got them sent to my mom's house so I didn't see them until today. I thought my Black Friday purchases came early haha.
Pic and details to come but I wanted to make sure my SS knew I got the gifts and that I'm so grateful. My SS read the descriptions of what I wanted and delivered! I wish guys on dating sites were as attentive! But I digress. Thanks Secret Santa!

I received two packages yesterday, I'm guessing from the same Santa since they had similar addressing (from your santa next to my name).
1. Two wonderful Frog & Toad (Sapo y Sepo) books in Spanish. My daughter and I sat down to read them right away
2. A set of froggy bath tub toys. My daughter squealed and we used them at bath time
3. An awesome poster of a frog in beer. I'm headed to Michaels tonight to get it framed! It will go in a place of honor in my home office where I can see it every day.
I have no clue how to post pics and have tried every year that I've participated. But they are awesome - thanks!
Thank you Santa!

Santa is happy to see all the postings.... much better than in years past. Do remember you have to PM me your details as well. I need to know what you ship and receive.
Reminder: Tomorrow is the deadline if you want to sign up for the first time or get additional assignments. As of now, I only have seven people to assign this weekend.

My presents were bought Friday for my giftee and packaged up. I missed mailing them out in the post office today by 2 minutes, so they should go out tomorrow and be delivered by Wedensday or Thursday. This was a blast!

So-one of my Santees should have received two gifts out of three-one was sent from an Etsy seller in Michigan who was supposed to include a Secret Santa note from me, but forgot to do so (she said she would follow up with a note). The third and final gift for that Santee has been wrapped and will be mailed early next week. My third Santee's gifts have been purchased and should also be mailed some time next week. Santa got a little behind schedule with wrapping and packaging.

A big THANKS to my wonderful Santa (Tracey) who sent me a fantastic assortment of gifts so beautifully wrapped and a gorgeous card.
The box smelled DIVINE even before I opened it and includes soaps, candle, smelly stuff, perfume and a hilarious tin of Instant Snow!!!!!!!
It is SO appreciated (and the amount you spent on postage was RIDICULOUS)
Merry Christmas to you Santa and thanks so much..I LOVE everything

I received a 4th gift from my Secret Santa today - the most amazing (and fitting) car decal. The family got a huge kick out of it - lol! We will be putting on my car this weekend. It's so amazing that my SS really took the time to get gift(s) that were so individualized and personal. That amount of effort is sooo appreciated! Thank you again!
