Secret Sister Summer 09 Gifts

I am excited to say that I got my gift on Saturday. My SS did a fine job shopping for me. I love the book she sent as well as the balms and the spa socks. The key chain was so very special thank you.

I'm so glad you loved your package, I can't wait to hear from the others when their goodies arrive?

Just want to let all know that participated someone will be getting their package in a week or two. There was a change of plans last minute, I apologize. I'll post a list of all who played tomorrow so that the process of elimination can begin.

I hope you had fun, this is a great way to end the summer!

Thanks,
Devan

I have the BEST SS EVER!!!

I think my secret sister is Teresa (TBonus)! The shipping label says AL and I know you're from Alabama. If it is you, you did an AMAZING job!!!

I could not have been more excited! I got a huge scrapbook kit with over 500 pieces!! I also got 3 little dog toys that are the exact colors of my 3 dogs! They also enjoyed some gourmet dog treats! I have been indulging in some dark chocolate dove promises! You are AMAZING!!!!

A beautiful colorful cloth box with candy, cookies, chocolate body wash and body scrub (my fav), lilac soap (my fav), a water bottle with an R on it (very sweet) and a bunch of little perfume samples, (pink sugar and juicy (my fav)).....
Thank you so much secret sister!
