MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AMANDA!

Thank you so much for the wonderful gifts...just what I wanted! I feel so spoiled! You tricked me by sending it Amazon, so I opened it early wondering what the heck I had ordered! How pleasantly I was surprised! We are going to play Pictionary today, with my nephews and my sister, her husband, and my mom. I  can't wait!

Hoping the Holidays brings you everything you've wished for!

Good happiness and health to you on this wonderful day,

All my best,

Casper,
Thank you so much. I wish I could take a pic with my phone, but it is an antique, so, I got a book which I am dying to read, but it has to wait another day or 4 since I am still up to my knees in messes here and the most beautiful sailing ship. One of the sails has " Footprints" written on it. It is so awesome, I was doing the jumping up and screaming thing. ( At my age, that is not a good idea) I absolutely love it. Absolutely!!!! You could not have chosen a better gift for me. Now I have to keep my desk clean.
Love
Jean

THANK YOU!!! Merry Christmas! :thx; :beer1;

Everything in that box came from the shop that my mom works at, even the card, I believe.. Mom works on the street in the picture... the apron was made by a local artisan.. most of what's sold in the shop is from the Maritimes at least..

My secret Santa was Willowtreewren.  Unfortunately, most of the goodies were not renal friendly, but I ate the chocolate before Mom could take it from me. *L*  I'm intrigued by the cake made with moonshine, though.. I haven't taken it out of the package yet..

Thank you, Aleta.. it's always interesting to see what's in the box.. even my grandmother was interested in it..  I was a little bleary-eyed opening gifts this year.. my grandmother decided it was time to start opening presents before I got out of bed.. I heard Mom say, "you're opening presents now, are you?" so I figured I'd better get up.. *L*
