I received a package in the very beginning of this posting and the second one came with some crafting surpises for myself and the children to do. I wanted to post a picture of them all done, but time is going so fast, we haven't had a chance to sit and do them. Thank you for our together time gifts, it's nice to share in the blessings we receive.
Try walking in someone elses shoes, see how good yours fit after that..

Just a little reminder girls! Please post here when you receive something from your secret santa! Because they are secret to you, they don't know when, or if, you have received their packages. It's always so nice too, to see how much you are enjoying your goodies!
Also if anyone has not received your January package yet, please email me!
I'm glad everyone is having so much fun with this! :)

I received my Feb Secret gift. It is something I will treasure, as I hate the winter and have been trying to figure out how to get some fresh herbs as the store ones are looking a bit under the sun. I got the perfect gift to start my own herb garden in my windowsill. She sent me "thyme" with a cute resin pot, adorable pop-out card, some peat pots so I can do basil and a few other herbs. This is so awesome, they are such a joy. Thank you my Secret Sister/Santa 2010
Spring is on the horizon!!

I was sure I posted a "thank you" here but I don't see it so it must be floating around somewhere.
Received a lovely book Dairy and letters of Lucy Maud Montgomery and a whole box of assorted teas to enjoy while I'm curled up with my book.
Thanks you sooooooo much, secter sister
I love all of it

My Secret Santa is so wonderful. I have even been bad and deserve coal next time
Hot cocoa (i love hot cocoa), cute wooden cut-out heart. a tiny strainer (Tea?)with a pink bow. The CUTEST chocolate covered cherries socks(LOVE THEM!) matching sticky notes and journal (they match the socks  and of course a valentine.
I was thinking to myself that WOW my YRSS is so on the ball and early. Then I walked around back and my pool was empty. The freezes did something now we have to find out what.
Thank you Secret Santa and please dont send me coal. I'll be good I PROMISE
LakeOntarioFarmgirl- Thank you for organizing this. You are awesome!!

Dear Secret Santa - you saved my birthday! I was feeling low today (hubby forgot to do anything for my birthday - boo, hubby) but when I went to the mailbox, what should be waiting for me but a big box full of birthday and valentine's day fun. I can't tell you how much this meant to me. I love the chicken wreath hanger (perfect for my door), the junior mints (nothing beats the blahs like candy!), the cute heart pasta, and the lovely plaque. I especially loved your cards - they are on my mantle right now.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!

I just found this thread so I am FINALLY thanking my Secret Santa for thinking of me in Jnauary. I got a Confetti Garden set of sticky notes. I've never seen a coordinated set like it, flowers and birdies! I smile when I use them, so cute and so useful! I sat down with the included tea and had a relaxing few minutes, which I truely needed that day! Thanks so much. This is Fun!

Yay!! Thank you secret sis - another wonderful package with perfect timing. I love the hand embroidered dishtowel and the magazine is a perfect read while I sit on my couch with a wool blanket wrapped around me. I also enjoyed the slate valentine plaque. Thank you!!!!

p.s. I do not know where my Secret Santa finds Secret Pal cards but they are way too cute!

Recieved a very cute hand stamped Valentine card from my SS, with a nice note wishing me a "Happy Valentine's Day". So sweet! Along with a favorite recipe of hers and her family for "Turtle Cookies" (can't wait to try making them this weekend) and a package of Sunflower seeds. Of course, the seeds will be planted by the end of this month. I love Sunflowers! Thank you and I wish you a "HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY" too!
Happiness is in the comfortable companionship of friends.

Got a package today from my secret sister with a beautiful little pink embroidered tablecloth and hand crocheted scarf & some really yummy dark chocolate hearts with truffle filling and a sweet card! Thank you, thank you, thank you. Made my day.
Be blessed.

I just received the most unusual and amazing gift that I think I have ever gotten in the mail. I just opened up a package of homemade valentine fortune cookies, complete with sayings and a lovely-lovely card. I am absolutely speechless. Thank you-thank you-thank you my secret santa. You have no idea how you have made my day! You have truly touched my heart.

Oops. I answered in the wrong place again.
Got a lovely Valentine's Box from my secret sister with a lovely handmade apron covered with hearts. It is adorning my mannequin in my kitchen. She also sent handmade chocolates. YUM. the chocolate covered cherries are terrific. Alos received a nice letter but I am finding it kind of frustrating because I can't send her a letter in reply
Thank You Secret Sister and Happy Valentine' sDay

I also received a package today. Just want to say thanks to my secret santa for the really cute red and white woven paper basket, yummy chocolate chip cookies (I hid them away for myself :-) ), and the cute little pincushion. It's made in fluted little tin. The basket is already organizing quilting patterns and fabric for a wool applique' quilt that I've gathered. This is really wonderful. Thank you, Secret Santa!

Hi Nicole,
This round of Secret Santa is closed, but I think there will be another Secret Sister starting up in March or April sometime. Just keep watching the Barter thread for info.
