I couldn't believe it when I got your package yesterday and saw we were your SB as well as you being ours! I think it was great we got each other. I almost spoiled it yesterday when I was writing my thank you to you. I had to quickly fix my post because I realized you had not gotten your package from me yet! Glad it got there today, I would not have made it another day without giving it away! They almost came the same day!
What was funny is having all of these great GE cards you made and not being able to send them out. I just knew if I did you would figure it out. I am glad you liked all the UT items and the orange and white theme. I wanted to trim the Gruffle ball with orange yarn but it turned out I did not have quite enough. So, I used a multi-color that had a lot of orange in it. My pups like the crochet balls too so I was hoping Taffy would as well. I am not all that creative but I wanted to include something handmade from me. I have to thank a couple of our forum vendors who do especially nice work -- Alison/kidmuzicdotcom for the UT dress and bow, and Villette/red98vett for the custom labels. You may have read a previous post of mine, that I did forget to send one item. I came back from the post office and could not believe it was still sitting on the table where I wrapped everything. It had actually been in the box once and then I had to rearrange. I will send it along here shortly. It will make a nice surprise in the mail one of these days.
I felt so honored to have you as our SB. You are definately a Forum Favorite and such a nice friend! I have replaced my mousepad with the one you sent and will be thinking of you everytime I log on! This was truly a great GE for us! I think the sheer magnitude of your package really sunk in today. I had my 2 yo grandson today and he kept picking up new toys asking, "For me?" and I had to say, "No, those are for Rocky (Ben or Candy, as the case might have been)." I had one new ball for him and I think he was thinking something was wrong with the picture -- the dogs were getting a whole lot more new toys than he was!
He is not used to that but he was a good sport.
I still cannot believe the framed cross with the scripture.....that just wells me all up everytime I look at it. To have it there next to our picture reminds me to be thankful for every moment we had. Ah oh....there I go again....better end this and just say, Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Debbie!
