Secret Kinster Holiday Exchange!!!

[twinflower]

*bounces, setting out cookies, and punch, eggnog and fruitcake*

 

Gather 'round everyone!  It's that amazing time of year when we get to play Santa to our fellow Kin family members!!!  *smiles and grins and smiles more*

 

One of our holiday traditions in the Kin is a Secret Santa exchange!  All you need to do is sign up!  Post here if you want to participate..then PM me your Name, Address and email!  On December 8th I will e-mail you the name and address of the Kinster you get to surprise!

 

This year I thought it would be fun to have an Ornament Exchange! 

 

Ornaments are a wonderful way to remember a friend every year when you haul out the holly and start to decorate!  These can be handmade, or store bought! A plus is also that Ornaments are not terribly expensive..and usually fairly light so not a big expense to mail! 

 

Sign ups will end next Friday, December 7th!  *grins and gets out pen and paper to make list*

 

OK..I'm In!!!

[UrsulaLV]

Wadyaget? 

 

Faerielin , I sent yours.  Did it get there?

[U4ea]

I got a Christmassy Apron for next year, some kick butt lotions (which are forcing me to actually spend time taking care of myself...odd, I know) and goodies for Peanut, too! :D

 

And yours is waiting on my paycheck to go in the mail, Ursula! I'll let you know when I get to UPS.

[UrsulaLV]

Don't fash yourself.  I only need you to enjoy what I sent.  I was worried it hadn't gotten there.

 

I could not resist the Pooh-suit!  I hope she's not too big, already?

 

  :)

[U4ea]

Nope! It's perfectly timed, actually, she's just getting into that 3-6 size and it was very handy when the temps dropped to 19 last week!

[UrsulaLV]

Pictures?  Pretty please?  ;D

[U4ea]

lol, it's supposed to get cold again soon, so I'll see what I can do. :)

[twinflower]

I wondered if anyone had gotten anythng yet!?!?!

 

*grins*  I have Danya...and it is waiting for a paycheck to get mailed as well!!  Hope you got your Christmas card though!!!

[faerielin]

Wadyaget? 

 

Faerielin , I sent yours.  Did it get there?

 

I did Ursula! I'm still enjoying it. :D Thank you, very much!

 

My kids were fascinated when the ball full of chocolate turned up empty hanging from the Christmas tree. They kept asking what I had done with the chocolate and how come the ball was on the tree, on and on...

 

I gave them some of the kisses, but told them they couldn't have any of the Ghiradeli! :D

 

I am also waiting on a paycheck to get mine out...

[UrsulaLV]

I did get cards, sorry.  And, stuff inside from Twinnie!  I love peng-ins, how'd ya know?  :-*

 

Thank you all.  It is so great to get mail for happy reasons.  All my cards are still up.  I always wait a long time to take them down.  I don't put up a tree, so my seasonal spirit is in the pretty cards I get. 

[twinflower]

*hugs*  I didn't know!!  You are gonna love January then!!!

 

*grins*  I still have my cards all here by me on the table...I just love looking at them!!!  Mail is awesome!
