I wanted to put this down here, so everyone could see it!
I will always post updates on the very first post, with dates added, I thought it would be easier that way!

Brenda,

So, Diana, we could only post received, right? If we posted sent then the secret would be out?

Ok, half the emails are sent! (Sorry i got a little side-tracked by 6 grandbabies visiting for a few hours!!)
Tammy- yes keep it a secret until Dec. 2010. I don't even know who has me right now, one of my daughters is helping me, and she sent out some of the emails!
Diana- yes, as soon as January 1 rolls around, I will start a separate post for sent and receive.
And, you don't have to feel you have to post whenever you send something, but it is nice for everyone to post when they receive something! :)
Off to send the rest out!

OK, so maybe I'm confused. If you post what you sent, won't the person to whom you sent it know?

Jonnie, if you post that you sent something, just say "I mailed out my package today", you don't have to say what you sent! :)

If you girls think this is confusing, think of putting together 2 secret santa swaps! One for this month, 1 for all of next year!!! So, if I mess anything else, you'll know why..... hehehe!!!
So anyways, I did forget one thing! I forgot to tell you all- especially the new girls- that you can put Mary Janes Farm address for your return address. I don't have it handy right now, but will post it as soon as I find it!

Oh my I am so behind. I have only gotten as far as opening Brenda's email to tell me who I have. I have to get going. Christmas got a little out of hand this year. We went all out and had the family dinner at our home this year. For someone that is used to cooking just for 2, it darn near kicked my behind. It was a big success yeah!

Great job, Victoria! It's hard to cook for a lot when you're used to cooking for only a few. I can't get started on mine yet - sewing machine is still put away and I have to make two more aprons for January birthdays that were supposed to be for Christmas and I just got too far behind . . .
Happy day ya'll!

I received a lovely prim Christmas card from my Secret Santa.  When I opened it up I found the cutest vintage Santa garland (I've never seen anything like it) and a lovely note. It made my day.
