All of the names have gone out, so please check your pm boxes. Please be sure to secure those boxes/envelopes with tape so nothing falls out. And, post here once you have sent out your exchange, and when you receive your exchange.

Have fun everyone.

Oh, and remember that the send by date is Monday July 27th. :goodvibes

I've finished my shopping. I'm not sure when I'll be shipping....I'm going to be busy the next few days. We have a big deadline at work. I had already asked for Tuesday afternoon/all day Wednesday off (and my boss had approved it), so I need to put in a long day tomorrow--I'm planning to be in the office by 7:30 AM & won't be leaving until 6 PM. I hope to pack the box tomorrow morning & mail at lunchtime, but if I can't do that, I won't be mailing until Thursday. I know I'll still be on time, but I thought I'd explain anyway. Oh, and I'm not going home Tuesday--I'm going to my sister's house. She & her husband are going to the Paul McCartney concert at Citi Field Tuesday night, so I'm watching the girls & staying over. I'll be back home Wednesday.

We went shopping yesterday, but didn't have a chance to play with packing the stuff up. Will do that when I get home in about an hour.

Inside (it was stuffed full!) was:

some American flag picks
patriotic foil picks
a Coke pad of paper
and a whole lot of yummy candy--Skittles, Heath bars & lots of interesting candy from England.

Thanks so much, Patsy!

:confused3 I posted on page one that I had picked up our names. Sorry I haven't been back to post, my oldest has been very ill.

Emmy did receive her package from Snowwhites's Mom Michelle :banana: It was a nice pick me up from a week of blood tests. :thumbsup2 (Now we just hope the results find something.) We do know she is not contageous as no one else has gotten sick.

She received: Blinky balloon party lights. We have never seen those before. Floral notecards, bobby pins, curling iron keeper, headband and hair clip set, 2 feather-fuzzy rubberbands that we keep taking away from the cat, 2 highlighters, guitar magnetic flashing light, Planet Hollywood keychain, resin duck, Tasmanian Devil figure, and duck erasers. The confetti made her laugh. Thank you again!!!

Our packages will go in the mail tomorrow AM, sorry for the delay.

a pretty fold-out fan
a package of 4 magnetic picture frames (perfect for the fridge!)
2 votive candles
Hawaiian flower coasters
Mickey Mouse sticky note pads
Wall-e Tattoos (Gavinn has already claimed!)
Lipton Tea to go packets

I wanted to add that Emmy's package included 2 resin ducks. (This is a big deal in our household. DN is 3 and gets very excited when there are 2 of anything...holds up his 2 index fingers and yells "TWO".)
