    When I arrived home today my ss package was there patiently waiting on me. I tore into it, of course.

    Inside was:
    a Starbucks holiday pack
    candy cane green tea
    a magnet
    a necklace
    a candle
    and some pictures of from PJ20 and EV solo in Chicago

    We have recently switched from a PC to a Mac and I have worked about an hour trying to get pictures up. For now I give up but will try again later. I might have to pull out the ole' Dell laptop to get the job done.

    Thank you Becky (nature lover) for all my stuff. I especially love the pictures because I spent both nights at PJ20 on the lawn and these are some awesome close up shots. Also a cool shot of the billboard on Monday with the blue sky in the back. The calm after the storm. Great memories! Thanks again.

    You're welcome..I'm glad you liked the goodies. It's so hard (but fun) shopping for someone you have no clue about, this was my first year participating so I'm learning as I go along.

    PJ20 was my 1st concert so I was picture happy!!! I just kept snapping away so I was able to get some great shots of the billboard especially after the skies cleared up. I agree-Great memories!

    Happy Holidays

    Hey FitPearl
    I am so glad it got there in 1 piece and that you liked it. Half the fun was sending and tracking the package. I had to tell FedEx it was bubble bath hehehe.
    On the DVD look for my wife Pandora (big fluffy blonde hair) and me (long gray hair) directly in front of Eddie in the second row. Pandora won the lottery that night. Merry Christmas to you and your family. I hope all your Christmas Dreams Come True. JBii

    Still waiting on my SS to hit me up.
    I am wearing out the carpet going to the door to see if SS left me anything yet.
    Good things come those who wait.
    :wave:
    he's like a little boy waiting for Christmas morning ;)

    to my SS I am waiting to open mine with JB
    I hope you understand and another BIG thank you from me...
    I'm having trouble waiting too!

    Hi Pandora! I think you've give a hand to my SS so i would like to thank you as well!! I LOVE my gifts!! :mrgreen:

    JBii, I saw "bubble bath" after opening the box. I though: ohhh funny stuff, and good trick to hide this sweet bottle! But hey with all this packaging, we got bubbles!! :lol:

    And youre right: I almost had more fun to send and track the gift I sent to Enkidu! (I said almost! :D )

    Been looking for you on the DVD. Are u "the" Gene Simon? :o hahaha i'm kiding!! Ed is looking right in front of him while saying that!

    :?

    are there alot of Secret Santa gifts floating out in space?

    I sent out mine at the end of November, and he lives in the same country as me...he doesn't post much on here, but still concerned nevertheless.

    I didn't receive mine either, but I'm not too worried as she said sent it out last week (from the States).

    So many wonderful, creative gifts on here....enjoy everyone!!

    take your breath away in a spiritual way. They reinforce my belief in God's plan

    JB had a theory on the slow boat of shipping ....
    internet sales are way up,
    so all the carriers, including postal service, overwhelmed perhaps.

    We are patiently awaiting his... he checked first thing this morning at 5:30 am!
    then again at 8:30 am .... what time is it? ... here he comes again ;)
