Oh SMS??? Where are you???

Has anyone heard from her??? The elves left her present at the side door the beginning of the week.


Sorry Falala!! I just got back from Christmas in New Hampshire (brrrr!) and your fabulous package was waiting for me just inside the door (thanks to Pardon Me, my loyal horsesitter). I ripped into it immediately and had to beat back Mr SMS from stealing the chocolates. My favorite things--a little bit salty and a little bit sweet--YUM! And a great treat at the end of a 9-hour drive! Thank you so much!

Ha....I'm FaLaLaLaLa OTF! Here is a larger version of the photo. Mr. & Mr. Claus visited our barn during a fund raiser. Notice he didn't have on his jacket....it was during his non-busy season. :teehee:

Ooooo RNB, thank you! It's a terrific photo and now that I see it up close, it appears that 'someone' is checking to see if those are real whiskers! I hope he didn't give them a yank. Great, and thanks again!

As far as I can remember there was no yanking of Santa's beard. There was a lot of nuzzling from the horses though which I thought was very cute. Our charity event was in October and it was in the 70's that day. Mr. & Mrs. Claus attend local charity events free of charge....which I think is very cool. They hand out candy to the kids and even have a web site. Very nice husband and wife...and yes those are real whiskers!!

So after a bit of tracking down (two numbers of my address were transposed :innocent: )...I got a box full of goodies from my SS who didn't reveal who she is...although I'm pretty sure I know. I'll let her stay secret unless she wants to out herself.

Now down to business...

Thanks so much SS for the aforementioned iTunes and the addition of a warm cuddly blanket...perfect for what is turning out to be a very cold winter at the SnackShack (I don't have any heating). There was also treats for me (dark chocolate...yum), treats for Oz (he approves), treats for Show (he's quite happy to snarf them down and is upset that they are being rationed since he's on a diet...where the heck did his ribs go? :teehee: ), a fun saddle shaped hook, a cool magnetic note pad and a fun horsey pen.

Many, many thanks SS. I loved all my loot. :hug:

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

JILLI

I got the package yesterday and I can't believe all of the goodies. You are incredible. :hug: :hug: :hug:

The stockings for Chaz, Skye and Milo are absolutely gorgeous and full of treats for all of the beasties. Even the wee one with the chocolates is beautifully done. And the lovely mug and yummy teas and hot chocolate. The socks look fantastic, warm and padded, perfect for teaching!

When I got to the last wrapped prezzy I was SURE that a gold thong would pop out, like gigglingly sure. :teehee: But NO, to my surprise there were gorgeous white show gloves. :o :cheer: :woot: WOW and WOW. And fit perfectly. :one:

Thanks so much for your thoughfullness and generosity :hug: :hug: :cloud9: You are the bestest. and yes, I have taken pictures and will really really try and post them. Like REALLY :yes:

Awwww <3 He IS adorable! Look at those big blue eyes :cloud9: It looks like it fits him perfectly.

Of course if I was really picky I would be asking for a side view to show off his lovely mane and tail :teehee:

We wondered if you would ever get cold enough weather for him to wear it though knownder? Will it be too warm for his little noggin?

knowonder...he is SO cute! Look at those big, beautiful blue eyes!!!!! :cloud9:

BT you are so welcome. I am so glad that everything arrived and that it fits and you like it!

JTM I'm glad you like Skye's stocking too. I know I wasn't your secret santa, but I was going to send you something this year anyway. ;)

I REALLY wanted to stitch gold thong up and wrap it around something. I actually looked at a couple of places for one to send, but no dice. I can't imagine why they wouldn't have one??? :teehee: :teehee:

Well a gold thong with the "Knotty Blonde"shirt would have been pretty entertaining!! :teehee:

So there were two of us who aren't male and gay out looking for gold thongs this Christmas?? Who knew?!?!?! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
