Talk about getting ideas from someone -- I think your gifts and suspense-filled cards before hand have given many of us ideas to help brighten our exchange packages next time. I am already feeling like "I can't wait!" I see how the gift exchange grew so much. Everyone wants to do a little better each time they participate. I keep thinking, "I wish I had thought about that!" when I read through some of the GE threads. I should be keeping notes! I still can't believe I hesitated to do the GE for so long.
I keep thanking Juicy and Carlene in my mind, everytime I look through their gifts to us or watch the puppies play with their new toys. I think of Maddy and Sarah everytime I see a Monkey Daze dress, a skull decoration, or see one of Sarah's posts. It does make people seem more real than before.
I too, thank the person who originally came up with the idea. What fun! |
