I think that my thankyou messages to my SS and the SSS might have gotten lost/burried and I wanted to make sure at the same time that all of you who were so kind to me knew how much you cards meant to me.
Well I opened the gift from the Sneaky Santa. Where do you get the time to do all that you do. Dave? That was awefully sweet of you, Sneaky Santa! Glad you liked what I snuck out to you!
As for my SS gift! Thank you so much Carolyne! I love all the boxes and the mats and eyelets and brads and fibers and just everything! It's was fun to dig through all the presents and boxes! I just kept on finding more things as I dug in! Thank you so very much! I had a great time shopping for you and I am glad that you will get to have fun with your new toys!
Judy, I've already told you privately how wonderful the little South African Teddy is and how it touched my heart. He came in a lime green plastic colapsible box that I know will be put to good use!
Kenda made me a beautiful clipboard with bears and Deb gave be some nice cards and a bunch of instructions that I wanted rather badly!I appreciate all of it and all the beautiful handmade cards that I received will be preserved in an album and looked at fondly.
Christmas in North Carolina was wonderful. DH, DS and I stayed in a chalet that was absolutel awesome. Two bedrooms with queen beds, two baths, a loft with another queen bed, a sunroom a great room with gas fireplace and a full kitchen. It was one of my MIL's gift to us. We got lost on Christmas Eve so we never made the family brunch at an inn in Highlands, but other than that, aside from the 12 hour drive each way it was fun.
Well now Shaun and I have to decide what to go and visit over the next 3 days. We are going up to Bentonville and then to Eureka Springs and perhaps Branson or Joplin and Tulsa. Should be fun.
I realized again when I started reading all the wonderful thank you messages going back and forth how wonderful a group of people RCS is. I am so grateful to have come across this group and to be a part of it. It is surely one of the most special groups of people I have had the pleasure to meet. Kuddos to all of you for not being afraid to be farm and fuzzy and let your love show.
Hugs
