Thank you

thank you to my secret Santas!

We received a corvette jacket, local jams, and a backpack full of toy cars for my son. They were wrapped and my son enjoyed unwrapping them this morning.

We also received two books about the northwest including one about the aviation history, and another about the coast. This secret Santa let us know a third item is on the way but got delayed with amazon.

The third secret santa I havent heard from but I assume there must be a mail delay (hopefully no package theft).

Cheers and Merry Christmas

You are very welcome Boturham! Always tough to figure out what to send?

I'm just glad the package made it that distance.

Merry Christmas!

Received my package yesterday also.......There was a book on Vancouver and a $25.00 CDN Tire gift card. Thank You!

Thanks Dara Krahne Peloquin! I did receive both books! I look forward to reading the running one and the cook book looks tasty. Love the holiday infinity scarf (I'm a little late on trends and just recently started wearing them) and the pins are great - even came with spare backs. The note and the ornament from your daughter was a cute touch!

At first the bottle sweaters confused me - thought they were extra costumes for an Elf on the Shelf (which I don't have, want, or need) but then I saw the gift note which said they were wine bottle covers, so I converted that to beer bottle covers, and that makes them AWESOME.

It's a travel yoga mat. Which is great because I'm starting a new job next year traveling 80-100% of the time and wanted to stay in shape!
I already ate an elephant and the crystals will go nicely in my collection.
Thank you OneTess for the gifts.

I know I didn't give you much to work with but I always enjoy receiving (and giving) various smaller and local items. The maple syrup was tried on pancakes today and was enthusiastically received by almost the entire family!

Thank you my Candian Secret Santa! I got a pink yoga mat but clearly, I need it due to my sweet tooth. Some succulents and a ton of Canadian goodies that you can't get in the US. I loved everything and can use both mats.



The succulents new home will soon be my fridge.


I liked how the kinder eggs were hidden in the Greek yogurt since they're illegal in the US. For a second, I thought it really was Greek yogurt. I've never had cheezies, they look yum.
