WAITING FOR THEIR EXCHANGE?
I had sent out all of the names, so please check your pm boxes. If by chance you did not receive a name, and you signed up for this exchange, please pm me ASAP.
Remember, the send by date is Wed. June 17th. A delivery confirmation number is recommended, and the opening party will be on July 1st. I will start another thread for the Opening Party a day or two before the opening party.
Have fun everyone :santa:, and be sure to gift wrap, or send out your gifts in a creative gift giving manner. :goodvibes
:santa:Have my name!!:thumbsup2:yay::woohoo: Now to start shopping!!;)

I received a package from Patsy today also. It will be difficult to not open it I did already shake it and felt it (now that just doesn't sound right). I will put it away, but with my luck I will forget where I put it in another month. :rotfl: Thanks Patsy.
Jenny
P.S. I do have some of my items, but I think that I will have to order a couple of items. Unless I send 2 packages one now and one from Disney while I am there, I will have to think about this one tonight.:confused3 They would both make it to their destination by July 1st.

Your item arrived at 5:40 AM on May 28, 2009 in CHICAGO, IL 60631.ME! The one already warning about deadline sending gets one of the first packages!! :guilty: It was about 12:40 pm tho - crazy post office. It probably arrived at my P.O. at 5:40, and got delivered to me later. I was home when it arrived. Thank you? ;) I didn't open anything - altho tempting! I like the wrapping paper! :thumbsup2
I did read the note, and I'm glad you posted Pooh, because (senior moment) I couldn't remember if it was you or Kirby who sent? Old age and memory. :laughing:
Patsy, I won't be home 7/1. I'll be in Montana. Do I wait until I'm home 7/5 PM, or open early and thank Pooh before I leave?? :confused3
Thanks in advance Pooh! :hug:
