CATE!!!! All I can say is you are Rock Star SS!!!! You should have seen me jumping aroung the kitchen when I opened the cutest apron around town!! I totally loved it and wore it ALLL weekend!! Oh, and I think I even slept in the earings one night! ;) Beautiful!! You really, really nailed it every month and I was smitten each time I saw a package from you. I was showing off all the awesome stuff you sent and was still shakin my tail feathers to the CD you made me the other night. My daughter (who is 6) and I fought over the sugar scrub and I can't get enough of the lip balm. Seriously, I am really sad this is over!!! But what a super fun few months!! Thank you a million times!!! xoxoxo!!!! :)

Kathy,
Thank you so much for taking the time to organize this. It's my first time swapping, and I really enjoyed it. I've been looking to see if there's another on the horizon, but now I understand that it's a big job, big committment, and sounds like sometimes it's a big hassle. So I just want you know that I appreciate what you've done!!!!
On to my SS - Hepkitten - Kristin,
I love candles, and the holder is right up my style alley! Thank you! I've already opened the notecards and sent one to my college room-mate for her belated birthday (see, I'm late more than I care to admit as well). I hope you're well, and I hope you're enjoying these last days of summer!!

With lots of hugs and smiles, have a great day.

Hi Debbie, We are home, unpacked and back to normal! So, I am formally thanking you for all the wonderful goodies you sent me this month from Colorado! Will have to tell you the Malted Milk Balls did not make it home - they would have melted in the car :)! They were wonderful! Love the Rose soap and cute little dish it goes in. The little bear is soo cute (I sort of collect bears)! The Columbine seeds were a real hit (My favorite flower!), will plant them this Fall. I love Wassil mix, many great uses for that and we have an apple orchard near us with great cider - nummy! The tea sounds good, and will fix a cup to enjoy while reading the papercrafting magazine. The potholder is sweet with all the pretty flowers on it too. Oh, and the Peach Blush Jam will be wonderful on homemade biscuits - making myself hungry and it's bedtime for me!
Thanks for being a wonderful Secret Sister - love, love, love your beautiful part of the country. Wish I had known you when we were visiting our kids, would love to have met you in person. Sending lots of hugs and thank you's!

Dearest Liz,
You have made this swap so special. Your talent is expressed in every item you sent. The hat is darling, the pincushion is just too cute, great idea for a glass case out of a potholder and the keychain, and towel are great. Thank you again for allllllllllllll the wonderful things you have sent. I wish you the best.

Denise, how long did you know we were each other's SS's? I'm so silly - I never even guessed! You were the best SS EVER, and I loved the reveal package you sent! My life has been so crazy lately that I'm putting "de-stress" on my mile-long to-do list tonight, and I will put to good use the wonderful gifts you sent. I'm sorry your reveal package was so small - I wanted to send something more, especially since your birthday was the 15th, but finances wouldn't let me stretch it. So please expect a "just because" package somewhere in the near future. I hope you have a wonderful time on your trip, and thank you again for all your lovely, thoughtful gifts. You are the best!
And Kathy, thank you so much for being a wonderful hostess - I sent you a tiny hostess gift at the beginning (glad you liked the little pink pig magnet - I couldn't pass it up!), and if I could, I'd send you another after reading about the lengths you went to to make sure all of us had a wonderful SS experience. You're a terrific swap organizer. Thank you!

Kathy, thank you for doing this and I received a great package from Ginny Reeves. It was the cutest crochet purse and some great tea and a book. Thank you so much for making this purse I love it. I shall enjoy reading the book. Thank you again.
With lots of hugs and smiles, have a great day.

Hi Billie Jo, I wanted to thank you for all the lovely gifts you sent me as my Secret Sister. I did not get my mail until yesterday from the weekend.
Love the local gifts you sent me, seashells from the beach, post cards, I also got floss, gift tags, cinnamon apple something?, shell bracelet 2 cute friendship plaques, decorated snowman spoon, and lavender scents. Living in Delaware on the Maryland sounds very interesting the best of two states and living so close to the beach.
Thank you again for being a wonderful Secret Sister.
Happy Fall.
Debbie
