I got a great book from my secret sister yesterday! It's on card making, which I love to do. Thanks for the letter, I'm glad you enjoyed your vacation! Receiving your package prompted me to remember to send my own secret sister package out, so THANKS for that too!
Can't wait for reveal....
Hugs :)

To my wonderful Secret Sister, and Farmgirl FRIEND!! Claudia thank
you so much for being my secret sister for this round. I don't look
at the post marks on my packages when they come, I don't want to ruin
the secret. My pin is just beautiful and I when I wear it you will always be in my mind and heart. The card was the best present I could ever have received, thank you for all the wonderful compliments and you will never know how wonderful it made me feel. Words will never express what joy you have given me this day!! One huge hug is
headed your way!!! Toni |

Hi Kyria I got my package today and you would not believe how much I needed it. I was so tired when I got home from work and there on the dining room table sat a package from my ss which happens to be you. What a thoughtful gift. Kyria put so many wonderful things in my reveal package, some beautiful chicken print fabric, a whole bag of hersey kisses (my husband's and my favorite) for our anniversary tomorrow, some bath salts and soaks, and a really neat crocheted makeup wash cloth that fits on your hand. You have been a wonderful SS thank you for everything. There is a BarBQ place in Carthage that we stopped at on our way to Marshall a couple of years ago that was so good. I can't remember the name I think it was Sonny's or something like that. They have great chocolate cream pie. Stay in touch.
Begin each morning with a song in your heart. |

Victoria, I am so glad you liked the last package! The BBQ place has to be Daddy Sam's. Great place! You're very welcome for everything. I had fun doing it.

Angela Muller (farmallgrl) was my secret sister and she sent me this bag and wallet in her reveal package. Isn't it bee-yoo-ti-ful?! I absolutely love them! There are pockets inside both of them. The workmanship is great!
Thank you, Angela, for making this swap fun!

One of these days I am gonna learn how to download things on MJF (note to self!), cause I again received some caute items from my secret sister whom is LakeOntarioFarmgirl - aka Brenda Becker; I was lucky to have her!
Anyway in her reveal package she sent me on Saturday: Several fat quarters in shades of purple and coordinating ribbon to go with them, a pretty kitchen towel, a note pad and note cards each with the letter "S" on it and another bar of homemade soap called Hazelnut creme!
Brenda - you were wonderful, thank you!

Sent my reveal package to Solilly today, but she already knows it's me because she sent me a reveal e-mail. She is my SS and I am hers, did anyone else have the same thing happen to them?

Aunt Pammy! I am in the process of putting your reveal package together, and whew, the time has come to reveal already! I Kelly Wall am your secret Sister! You may have guessed already because of the post mark, I don't think anyone else on here lives in my small town! Anyway, I will finish up your package and put it in the mail! This has been so much fun, I wish it lasted longer. I hope you have enjoyed this as much as I have!

To Victoria, our EastTXFarmgirl! I wish I could truly express what fun and excitement I had as I opened up the package you sent. I am saving the address big label from the box with all the stickers etc, to keep with your note. What a thoughtful gift...a gardening tote which has 6 pockets all with hidden surprises. I must find out how to get pictures on this to do you justice Victoria. Included was a watering can, gloves (that fit!), pkgs of parley, sage, rosemary and thyme, including little "rocks" with the names embossed on them. I've been singing Simon & Garfunkel tunes since then. Also there was a long nosed trowel, hand pruner, sunflower seed pk with a paper describing the "Great sunflower Project, bird feeder, and peat pots, organic polanting soil and a tray to set them on until they can be taken outside safely. Phew!! Oh, and 2 wonderful lip balms to help me pucker for a smooch from Dan when he enjoys all the gardening I am doing. LOL . What is precious, is learning about my special secret sister. I hope that she is willing to become a special friend. She most certainly has been extremely generous. A common thank you is just not enough. I so appreciate you! Please expect a letter in the mail soon!

Claudia, I am so glad you liked it. And you can count on it, I will be waiting for my letter. Don't feel bad the song has been stuck in my head since I put the package together so I'm about 7 days further into it. You take care and I do look forward to hearing from you.
Begin each morning with a song in your heart. |

Hope I am not being a sore sport but I think I am not going to do the SS thing for awhile. I know its supposed to be about the giving and forgive me if I am out of place but I never heard from my SS. It's kinda of a bummer when you see everyone else posting all the neat things they have received from theirs and what great SS they have and I never even heard a word from mine. I hope my SS is okay but even just a little note saying hello would have been nice or even if she couldn't do it and let someone know would not have bothered me at all but not knowing anything bummed me out. Anyways, I enjoyed sending my SS her gifts and I hope she enjoyed them.

Diane of Fiddlehead farm once again I must say thank-you your last package came today. I can tell like me you have been watching my postings. It was a very fun time and even my h said thank-you for the book that was one we don't have with planning our trip. I will say we have gotten an offer to come by for a visit from bag lady diva. She lives right out side of Mt. Rushmore one of our planned stops. I find that this thing has even gotten the h excited. So thanks and the note cards will be used for more sisters. My egg carton is two holes short I may just get chocolate that always works. Also I hope you got the tea? After I sent it I thought the book you sent me was inspected by the postal service. So not seeing anything I did not know. For I sent it before I sent you an email. I can not wait till next sign up and I will be on the road the whole time what fun. Lilly

2 things-
1)I was feeling rather sheepish about just today getting my last secret sister package out! I'm not going to reveal here because I'm really excited for her to get my reveal in the mail!!! Looking forward to that post. Thanks girls, this was a super fun exchange!
2) Treelady, THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH for everything. It meant the world to me every single time something arrived. I especially love hearing about your farm and the cows! The apron you sent is just perfect, I didnt have a black and white one. I just love it! I'd like it if we could stay farmgirl friends ;)

Jennifer, I am so sorry you never heard from your SS. That should not have happened. I hope this doesn't turn you off to more swaps.

Thank-you Kelly! the socks have been worn and washed and worn and washed! St. Patties day is a big day here in the ol' Mcnutt house as you can well guess. The journal is just what I needed for my new garden book. I am getting my reveal package ready for my sister today...for some reason I thought I had until the seventeenth...so sorry secret sister.

Jennifer - I am so sorry that you did not ever hear from your secret sister; I contacted her and something was "on the way" from her; maybe you will still hear something from her!
Not that it makes Jennifer feel any better but that was the only "problem" that was had in this round of secret sisters! Please Jennifer don't give up on the secret sisters!
