First of all...Thank-you sooo much Cindy!!! I absolutely love everything. It felt like Christmas! It felt weird recieving a gift from someone I've never met...um...felt as though I didn't deserve it, ya know? ..which made it all the more special..I just don't know what to say..thank-you, thank-you, thank-you...a million times over...Thank-you!!! Did I mention Thank-you??? Okay..first thing was the note...I had such a laugh outta' this...so Cindy!!! Next thing I opened was this adorable frog. My dog Willy has already been eyeing it. "Paws off Willy!!!" Rippit... Okay...there's more...just don't want too many pics in one post...brb..

Oh...btw...that's not Cindy's last name on the card....I wouldn't post that information...don't worry. Okay...next thing I opened..which was my absolute favourite!!! I don't know how many times I've said, "I have GOT to pick up some coasters!" Cindy...how did you know?? They are exactly what I would have picked out!!!! Next thing was the Kentucky shot glass. If I knew Cindy had my name..I would have guessed this as something she'd put in the box! Thank-you Cindy..can't wait to use it!! Okay..there's still more...brb..

Has Cindy written all over that box! Awesome gifts that Dusty got as well.
Loz, You are just too sweet. I did fix my sign and it is drying now, but I will take your advice and share with the Sr Stanfields. Thank you! I should have mine hung this afternoon. My garden now has ART in it! Yours are the first things I have put in the garden as my only other garden gift, a WW from Bill is in a planter on my porch.

By the time we do it again I'm hoping my mom is on here....They are supposed to buy a computer when they get back from England....she's a good shopper too, and I know she'd take part....How funny would it be if I ended up with her name, that just wouldn't be right......she lives across the street.

I think now that those of us who want to play, should be able to take one prize from everyone who has posted their loot. I'll go first, and since it's my game, 2nd and 3rd too. Did I mention I get to take 4th and 5th also. It's only fair. It's MY game.

I still don't have my package either. And today is my daughter's 17th birthday so I am going to have a bunch of hungry teens at my house today who arrive before the mail does. Maybe I will be able to pop on tonight for a bit....if I get it that is......

I just found a note in my door from the mail-lady! It says there's a package for me in the backseat of the car! BRB! Gotta put Lola up so I can go get it!

Hmmm Cindy, I dunno about that logic. Perhaps your reminder just let me know it was time to check my package AGAIN. I could have been checking it every day for the last 5 since I mailed it off.
