Do you still find yourself going to the GE forum and looking for clues!

Are you thinking about what gifts you could use for the next GE?

Are you as excited about anticipating the next one as I am?

This was mine and Rosie's first GE and I have to say it was a blast!!!!

I can't believe how much fun we had. Also, I am looking at the smileboxes and getting ideas for next time! Some of you are soooooo creative!

I am just amazed about what a great time we had. From start to finish it was so exciting. The thrill of finding out your secret buddy, planning teasers, buying (or making) gifts for "the box", and then sending it out! What fun!!!

Remy, I had so much fun having you as my first GE secret buddy! Baci, thank you so much for spoiling us and making our first GE a rememberable one! Can't wait until the next one!

We have already started shopping for a couple of special things for our SB's Mommy.

Daddy says Mommy is a shopaholic. Not really sure what that means. It must be good though because Jackson, the skin kids and I all have nice things.

Psst...Daddy does not seem to lack for anything either. LOL

We are really looking forward to the next GE. I am trying to convince Mommy to put us both in. She just keeps shaking her head and saying no. She says it is Jacksons turn. I think since I am a girl I should get to go again!

Jillian, tell your Mommy that Girls ALWAYS get special treatment

I do find myself going through the pictures and making a note of some of the different things that were sent that I think would make great gifts in the future. Someone always seems to find something that I hadn't seen before and I just fall in love with it.

I also like to go through the sign up sheets when the GE begins and start making notes for each one that signs up what I would get them if I had that person and that seems to make the shopping so much easier and faster. Kinda like pre-shopping so I know where I am getting everything from.

Love doing them and can't wait for the next one!!!

horsnaround · 06-11-2011, 02:46 PM

I am so excited this will be the first one for us... I have been looking for stuff already.

oh.. thank you rosie!! Having you as my sb made it very special, after all we are kb buddies!!!! (I know sugarmamma... you are our kb buddy too) and making stuff for Zoe was such fun.

I can't wait for the next ge!! I learned so much from my first ge.. and got such great ideas of stuff to do. I love planning what I am going to do!!

I think we may need a ge AA ... to help with the withdrawals. But ... I did see they are starting a YT Raffles

itsbaddangel · 06-11-2011, 07:03 PM

We luved our firwst GE and had so much fun! (My mowmie still keeps tinking of tings our SB would wike but den I tell her to get it for me!!).

So much fun!

JESSY_RN2B · 06-11-2011, 07:13 PM

We had so much fun as well. Cannot wait til the next one!

Jinger · 06-11-2011, 08:24 PM

We're right there with you! Loved our first GE and can't wait for the next one. We loved buying fun things for Peanut (and we especially loved treating his "wild" side to some spoiling and decorating the box for days!), and we had the best first buddy a yorkie could have--thanks again Shinja and Remy! Time to get started on the next one! (I think this means I'll need to add a new line item to my supposed "budget"

)

Zoe is worried she's going to forget her new typing skills, and is already boy crazy after "meeting" so many new boys during clue time.

oh .. I think Peanut was very happy. You did a great job. I am so lucky that I can make some of the gifts I send.. and I so enjoy making the gifts for cute little ones like zoe!!

I have already "collected" fabric that I hope to use for the next GE... aww hard to wait.

Sewing machine don't fail me now....

jltwigg10 · 06-13-2011, 12:37 PM

We have a confession. Mommy was at the store and saw a cute little shirt and thought of Sugar, our SB. She bought and mailed it to her.

Apparently Mommy is having a hard time letting go of Sugar as a SB. LOL
I could not convince her to let me wear it because I am bigger than Sugar.

I told Mommy "No More"!

That is great! The bad thing about SB is when I bought Remy a toy I bought Rosie a toy. Lol. When Remy got a shirt, Rosie got a shirt. See the picture!

oh you are priceless!!! That is just too cute

Don't feel bad, I saw something I thought oh.. that would be so cute for Zoe... but I did control myself..so far
I had a hard time letting go of Teddy last GE too... I even sent Chocolate Cover Strawberries because one of the items I order for him never came... I am sure Cathy laugh at me....
