Oh boy, where do I start? It turns out Brody and Luma both had EACH OTHER as Secret Buddies!!! How neat is that! We were NOT expecting it, to say the least. Sarah LIED to me!!! :p :p But I'm so glad she got to surprise us!

Hawaii print Lifejacket!! Can't WAIT to try this in water! Luma likes it! And it fits great!! Yay!
Personalized Tshirt Dress from Sherry's Pet Stuff Omg I'm in love with this dress! It's so comfy on her and the fabric matches Luma and Brody's VDB outfits! Every time she wears it she will think of slow dancing with Brody and getting puppy kisses....xoxo
Hot Pink BUDDY BELT!!! omg...THANK YOU! She outgrew her old one and it will go to Rosie. Now Luma will have a BB too! And I love the color! Good choice ;)
Super duper soft blankie! Brody has a matching blanket! Adorable. I may steal this even though its not for a human..LOL

Personalized Bow Box for ROSIE!!! Okay when I saw this...I started crying so hard! It still hasn't hit me that I have another baby girl! Thank you so much for thinking of the new puppy!

Picture frame with Luma & Brody's Valentine's Day Ball pics!! so cute!!

TEASERS!!!
3 squeaky toys from toplinepet...I think haha
Hello Kitty Cloud 9 BED! Beautiful....Luma and I love it.

Brody totally SPOILED Luma...I'm still kind of speechless. I don't know WHAT we did to deserve such amazing friends. Everything we received will be cherished FOREVER! I can't believe how generous and thoughtful this box was. This was the best gift exchange I've ever witnessed or been in..:D and I could not have asked for a better buddy than Brody. Luma loves you, sweet boy! And I do too! :love:

Oh my goodness! Wuma's boyfwend, Bwody, spoilded herz!!! Awesome job, Brody and Sarah!

Great smilebox, Carmen! You can definitely see Luma's training in those pics. I wish I could work more with Mandie and get her to sit still for pics LOL

Beatiful girl, beautiful smilebox, beautiful SB Box!

Wow look at all the great stuff. Great job sb. And it was worth the wait on the smilebox great job

Oh! What a wonderful giftbox!

How exciting this exchange has been for you, and so extra special for Luma to have her BF as her buddy. Sara did a great job on your box, she sent you so many nice things that I could tell were picked out just for you and Luma. Loved watching the smilebox so much I ran it three times! Enjoy your bounty:)

OMG I loved the smile box!!!!! Luma's hair has gotten so long, she looks absolutely beautiful (Brody agrees, of course ;)). I was so happy and surprised that the Ravens won the superbowl, then I checked my e-mail and Luma was our buddy. I was in utter shock, the night couldn't have gotten any better! This was a month of deception :eek: and lies ;) but I think it all worked out!!!

I am warning you... Cloud 9's are addictive!!!! Especially with Rosie on the way, you might need a few more!!! I think my favorite photo is the one of Luma in her lifejacket!!!!! Those sizes were so wacky! The one that was supposed to fit Luma's size, looked so small like it would fit a 3 or 4 pound dog. I was staring at the two sizes for about 30 minutes, I'm relieved I picked the right one!

I have to give a shout out to Lisa --- Thanks for practically forcing me to sign up :eek: I had a blast! If I didn't, Luma might have been paired with another boy :unlove:

I do hope these toys last awhile for Luma... but I guess we'll see!!

OH I also adored the photo with the champagne toy, that made me laugh and was so sweet :love:. We couldn't have asked for a better buddy!!!!

uhh YEAH here I was thinking, man it feels like Sarah and I are growing apart a bit in this GE! NO WONDER~!!! We had to keep a huge secret from each other LOL. :love: Yes, thank you Lisa for making Sarah sign up bc we've always said how funny it'd be if we got paired up, and we did! :thumbup:

We have a new rule in the house: the cloud 9 stays in the living room!! otherwise Luma would never sleep with us again! LOL she loves it! I took her on a walk this morning in her new bow and new BB and several people complimented them ;) Thank you to the vendors Sarah worked with, it made our box so special and we absolutely love everything! Sherry, Michelle, Kristin..y'all did great and the quality of everything is amazing. The dress Sherry made is my favorite dress of Luma's EVER! So so comfy on her. This GE business is dangerous...I did good not buying Luma stuff everytime I got Brody something, but now that it's over I want to buy Rosie everything Luma got...fill up both bow boxes...:eek:

The question now is...what GE will I put Rosie in? :rolleyes: She'll be home by the signups of the next one HAHA!! :p:rolleyes::cool:

Wow she sure did get spoiled !

What a great job.

Such a cute and PINK (my fav color :D) box!!

Luma, I loved your SmileBox! Brody did a great job choosing beautiful things for you. Love your little personalized Hello Kitty dress and the life jacket! Super cute!

So sorry I ruined your surprise. Carmen. :eek:

What a great smilebox. Sarah sure worked hard to be sure you had a wonderful GE!

How awesome that Luma's BF was her SB!!!!! Love the Smilebox! Love the picture of her almost asleep with her new dress. She is so beautiful Carmen!
