I did post earlier that my package wouldn't go out until the send by date. I was having trouble finding items, plus I never get to the PO before Fridays.

Yes, thank you. And thank you DISer ladies.
There are alot so hopefully they will be out by the mail by date.
I will keep you all updated.
I didn't think we would have such a great turn out for both Christmas exchanges, but I guess everyone loves Christmas just like me.

Okay all four of mine are wrapped and boxed up, I will drop them off in the morning at the post office! Sorry it took so long, DS's birthday party was last weekend, so that took up a lot of my time.

I really hope that the people we shopped for like their gifts, I am very nervous about this exchange, this is only the 3rd one I have done, anyways, hopefully they will like them!

Also I recieved my package today from Snowwhitesmom, but I have not opened it yet, I was going to wait until the others in my family recieved their exchange and then we could all open at once.

Well, DH came home from work today carrying in this HUGE box with my name on it....and let me tell you something I am speechless. KimRaye, you totally outdid yourself!!! I cannot thank you enough. As many of you know I have been in and out of the hospital this month, and this was just what I needed to lift my spirits. OK, here is what my box contained, and if I forget anything I am sorry, but there was SOOOOOOO much in this box my DD's were ripping everything out trying to take claim to it.

OK here goes...
~a really cute mickey ornament from Disneyland
~a miniture mickey head ornament (my DD called it a mickey disco ball)
~a magnetic photo frame with really cute snowmen on it
~two really cute tissue box covers(one has mickey on it and the other one has snowmen on it)
~2 boxes of Hallmark ornaments
~a pair of christmas socks
~2 mickey mouse candy canes....dd's took them
~a pooh christmas pen
~two yankee candle car jars
~a mickey & minnie christmas washcloth
~a small jar yankee candle
~a christmas tart burner with 3 tarts( I've been wanting one of these!!)
~a votive holder with 4 yankee votives
~a WDW tall candle
~a snowman/fence basket type thingy with a votive holder and a yankee ~votive and a small jar yankee candle
~a really cute snowman in a boot tealight holder with a snuffer
~a really cool Chicago Cubs Stadium postcard
~and a really HUGE bag of my favorite candy Skittles(love the orange and red ones!!!)
I think that is everything, if I forgot something I am sorry like I said the kids were tearing everything open.

KimRaye, you really made my day, I felt like I won the lottery!!! Thank you so much, and Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nutsy. Hope things are getting better.

Taking it a day at a time, but just so much that needs to be done and finding the time to get it done and still be there for everyone is very tiring and very draining. But emotionally I'm getting there thanks Nancy.

Dear Nutsy;

I got your gift and guess what, you are in Australia! My friend Peter is in Australia and he is very handsome. You would like him.

Thank you for my postcards and thank you for writting on them! Now I know what a postcard is, my Mom tried to tell me but I thought they needed an envelope. Mom says they don't need a box either.

I really like the pinchers. I have one from New Zealand, of a kiwi. Mom says New Zealand is different but Christmas is the same. My friend Andrew lives in New Zealand. He taught me to say hello but he says noone really talks that way, it is just for visitors.

I am taking my puppet to show and tell. I hit the jackpot.

I have to go to bed now. Thank you for the boomerang. Mom says it is a with parent toy because I might hit someone. Is it hard to learn? n Can you use a boomerang?

Mom said she would type this on the computer for you.

Joelle

Oh ya, thank you for the stamps too, they are cool.

Mom says I also need to say thank you for everything else. I got lots of things. Thank you.

Finally found Xmas wrapping paper. I hate to shop (believe it or not) but I have gone every night recently looking for paper. Everyone keeps telling me to wait until after Halloween. My response? "Halloween is days after my mailing due date!!!!!!!! PLEASE CHECK THE BACK ROOM!!!!"

Finally someone said Kmart has it. Mind you I refuse to shop at KMart because of a very bad transaction that cost lots of $$$$. They couldn't find the code to scan it so charged me for 3.5 vacumms. Then the BBQ was broken and they wouldn't refund me because I wasn't returning 3.5 cleaners. SOOO to make a short story long, I went to KMart and found wrapping paper. Came home tonight and got ready to wrap but...

DD5 used the last of the tape Sunday (according to DH) to do a craft project for my bday. So, basically I have to shop again tomorrow for tape, lovely.

Sorry if it seems I have been bad on this. I promise, I normally try to get my packages out as soon as I know my person. Please don't be too horribly angry with me. Plus at the same time I am getting ready for my cruise Nov 26th. It is my first one, so I am a stress monkey. Good news, yesterday I upgraded to the Walter E Disney suite. I cannot believe it.

I promise to get on the ball.

No problem. The mail by date is Friday, so even though you get the tape tomorrow, you can mail it out on Friday.
You must be tired after that adventure.

Adult gift, per sender, should arrive in 5-10 days. It took awhile to convince them not to ship to me first. It is a very reliable company, so if there are any issues, they will be on it immediately. Please don't be angry, but they didn't offer Xmas wrapping. I would have shipped to me, but the ship out date is Friday and....

The childs gift will go Friday.

Will update soon.
