I have had so much fun hosting my last two swaps, I have decided to host another swap. I searched through older swaps and came across this one. I emailed and asked permission to use this swap and she agreed. Here is her explanation:
I am born and raised in Michigan and I don't plan to live any place else -- and with the state of the economy, I think that's quite a commitment! I'm proud of my state -- from the fall apples, to the unique beauty of the Petosky stone to our huge amount of lighthouses and more -- it's an awesome place. I'm sure you have the same kind of love for the state you call home.
Let's partner up and swap boxes that contain goodies from our state, photos, crafts and even stories. The possibilities are endless (they always are!). How about a $15 limit.
Please sign up by March 1st, and plan to mail out packages March 10th.
Please email me your name and mailing address so I can get you on the list.
I am very excited for this swap!!!!!!!!!!!

I just wanted to let everyone know that this swap has been on my mind ever since we mailed out our packages. My partner was Kim L. I have not heard from her since we exchanged mailing addresses. I have been thinking about her ever since. She is in my daily prayers. I know that TN has gotten some bad weather and I am hoping she was safe from that. Earlier today I goggled her name and address and actually found a phone number and a different email address. I have emailed her asking that she please just send me a little saying that she is ok. If I dont hear from her I plan on just calling the cell number I was given and just ask her to send me an email letting me know she is safe and healthy! I don't want anything from her other than a quick note so I can put my heart at ease for her safety!

Unfortunately, Stephanie's package she sent to me was lost in the mail, but I appreciate her taking the time to put something together for me even if the Post Office did lose it.
Thanks Steph!

Julie,
I just wanted you to know, again, how much I enjoyed my North Dakota package. You were an amazing "tour guide".

I should have posted this a long while ago. Thank you, Pam for the Arizona package! I loved looking at all the booklets about your beautiful state. The blue corn pancake mix and cactus syrup were awesome to say the least! I hope you enjoyed what I sent you from Indiana!

Thanks Kathy I just sent for one! That will be perfect for him to look at. Still rather bummed that she got such a good package from me and then backed out.

Shelly,
You can go to this site http://www.tnvacation.com/ and request a vacation guide for Tennessee, you could even have it come in the mail in your son's name. I have found that these guides a usually filled with fun and interesting places for the whole state.

Thanks Kathy but thats not necessary. The reason I am bummed is because my son is super excited about getting a box about Tennessee in the mail. I havent told him that we wont be getting one. I am trying to find some stuff to put in a box so he can open it and learn about Tennessee. I bought a small book from a book store and I ordered a few things from ebay about Nashville.
I truly hope that she is ok and that nothing serious has happened to cause he to not follow through. I just wish she would send an email letting me know.
Thanks again for the offer.

Shelly,
That is a bummer but if you send me an email with your address I will see if I can't put you together a small package about why I like calling North Carolina home. Nothing in return is required or requested.
Thanks

Julie,
I failed to include my note and sheets with info about Arkansas. My hubby has been in and out of the hospital for the past week, and we are supposed to go home today. I'll send them to you soon. Sorry.
Hugs!

Betsy,
I am speechless, I just received your wonderful gift. The honey is soooooooo good. We could not wait we had bread and honey immediately. The soap smells terrific can't wait to try it. The magnet is really cute, the pot holders are wonderful, the map (which I am busy trying to read) has so many things on it I did not know. And last but not least by any means was your lovely card such nice thoughts you sent to me. You marked on the map where you are. I have been known to take long road trips. You never know who may show up on your door step.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful gifts. Thank you for being my swap partner. Good wishes to all your family.

The box is ready to go to you, but it won't get shipped until Friday.
I forgot John has a sleep study Thursday night, so he won't be able to do it when he comes home for the week. However, he should be able to ship it when he comes home from his sleep study.
Can I retire now? 'cause my job really is draining the life out of me this week.
