    My baby has been sick past couple of days (pneumonia - we were at the hospital for 5 hours this afternoon) so I did not get around to uploading the pics I took of Pandoras SS gift yet. I will try to find the time to do it tomorrow.

    Sure hope all is better rafie.

    Just to let my SS know, I received my package yesterday so Thank You whoever you are. Will post again when I open them on Christmas. :)

    My Secret Santa gift came!!!!

    This is it before I opened it;

    and this is it after;

    101207_175532.jpg

    I am so happy!! What wonderful pressies!!

    It's a bit hard so see what they are as I took it with my phone and was obviously having a bit of a wobble at the time, so here's the lowdown;

    A most beautiful scarf and glove set with a border terrier on (the same breed as my little Molly)
    Texas Morning glory - a breakfast recipe book (yummy)
    A Pez machine and sweeties - so very long since I've had one!
    A pack of three mis-matched socks - perfect for me and my dis-organisation
    A fantastic doggy christmas tin full of chocolate covered pecans - which I have already started into, but I am going to try and hide from myself so that I don't eat any more!
    A Edvard Munch personalised bookmark

    I can't tell you how many smiles and laughs I had when I was unwrapping each pressie - it was all perfect!!

    Thank you so much Whoprincess!!
    You didn't write your screen name anywhere on the parcel but your dogs gave it away!

    It is so awesome to see what everyone got!! This just gets more and more fun!! Still waiting on mine, which is testing my "patience is a virtue" theory, that's one I'm waning thin on LMAO. When it gets here and Christmas as well, I will get a silly photobucket account so I can post pics of what I got.

    One of the most fun parts about this (besides seeing the great pictures of what everybody's getting) is seeing your Secret Santa pal post and they haven't gotten their present yet. And they don't know it's me, I'm the one who (finally) mailed off the box. It's so exciting and kind of scary because you hope they'll like it.

    And I want to be able to say "pressies" instead of presents cause that sounds much cooler.

    My Secret Santa came!

    The box itself is even beautiful!

    Thank you thank you thank you thank you PJPixie!

    I can't believe you put so much time and love into this.

    This is the best.

    You're the best!

    Pixie spent time crocheting a gorgeous PJ designed neckscarf, and a toastie one at that!

    She sent framed photos of herself with her "SMILE" sign and then Ed on stage with her SMILE sign

    along with...

    recordings of the Cleveland Mother's Day show where Ed took the banner up on stage and performed Smile for her and of you/us all after waiting all of that time!

    Not only all that, but three, count em, 3 whole containers of decadent chocolate, white and strawberry "cake balls" made by her son. so scrumptious...i have to hide them or i will never get another ....everyone loves them!

    One of the best pressies in the box is the smallest one...a handmade keychain with Pearl Jam spelled out along the length of it in beads. I'm assuming that you made that and i just LOVE it!!!! So cute. I can't wait for everyone to see!

    Along with all that came a lovely letter explaining the significance of and the history behind, each gift in the box.

    So awesome!

    When my daughter comes home from work tonight I'm going to ask her to take photos so i can post them up here (i don't know how to use her laptop camera properly, or so i've been told heheheeheee)

    I LOVE IT ALL SO MUCH.

    Thank you Pixie, you rock!!!!

    peace and hugs
    jo!
    peace,
    jo

    I haven't sent off my Secret Santa yet, but there's good reason.

    An integral part of the gift is not going to be ready until this coming weekend.

    I think it will be well worth the wait for my person!

    Since the box isn't going all that far, I am 99% sure it will still arrive in plenty of time for putting under the tree!

    I'm so excited.

    I really hope they like it :D
    peace,
    jo

    So happy you enjoyed it! I had so much fun shopping for you! In fact, I haven't enjoyed Christmas shopping so much for a long time. It has spilled over to my other shopping and I'm having the most fun I've had in years!

    I didn't put my screen name on purpose and I thought you would guess because of the dogs. I did give you a small clue by putting The Who targets on all the pressies but probably only a diehard Who fan would guess it.

    Enjoy! :mrgreen:

    I received my Secret Santa gift today from Mr. Eddie Vedder =)

    Candles, vino (in this cool little bottle), music from different bands which I really like, and coins. Way cool and I thank you for the lovely message in the card too. Thanks again.

    This was a fun thing and I am glad I was a part of it. :D
    Live Life love people, you never know what battle they may be facing..

    Your worth has always been there...don't argue with those who see it.just accept you are valuable.
