***PLEASE, PLEASE email me at blessedincolorado55@yahoo.com if you have not heard from or received anything from you Secret Sister****

*AFTER MANY HOURS ALL FARMGIRLS HAVE BEEN SENT THEIR SECRET SISTER*

Please if there is a problem or you did not get your partner let me know.
Your Return address is below, please do not use your own or you will spoil the surprise.
Mary Janes Farm
1000 Wild Iris Lane
Moscow, Idaho 83843

After all was said and done we had an odd number (43 farmgirls sign up) as we lost one farmgirl, so everyone has a partner but me,(um but I do have a Secret Sister Angel out there) which is great I will be here for any of your questions, concerns and with any help you need. Please remember to post your thank yous and pictures on this thread. Now let the fun begin. Remember your first package/card must go out by January 30th with your Delivery Confirmation. If after 2 weeks you have not heard from your Secret Sister let Joan and I know and we will check into it for you.

Hugs to all and thank you again for your patience.
Debbie

Here is where you will post that you received something from your Secret Sister so she knows it was received. Even with Delivery Confirmation it is nice to hear.

Also if you can post pictures so we can all share in the fun of what you received.

Everyone will have their Secret Sister by this evening, YEA!

January 30th will be here before we know it.

Thank you to the Secret Sister Angel who sent me a package today, I sure needed a pick me up and I love my Farmgirl Mail and surprises.. Thank you so much for thinking of me.
So, I received a 2013 Planning Calendar, perfect for farmgirl birthdays, swaps and barters, mini clipboard with notepad, note cards, a book called Simple Pleasures, A Celebration of Life's Simple Pleasures. A notecard that read "Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, Just thought you needed a Secret Sister Too!! Nice Right?

It is about -2 degrees I walked up to the mailbox. What a surprise. I have the most wonderful secret sister she sent me a fantastic scarf, handmade of course, red which I love and new gloves that fit perfect.
Beautiful card filled with heartwarming words.
It doesn't get any better than this.
Thank you so much for these great gifts.

I've been checking my email for a couple of days with anticipation. I haven't had email for days now. I thought that was strange because of the amount of business that I do through email. I really wasn't bothered by not having mail except the one I really wanted - secret sister notification- wasn't there.

Silly me, I had my spam filter on high and all my emails got put in the spam folder! I've had my secret sister for a couple of days and didn't know it....I've got to get busy.

Thanks Debbie and Joan!!

So, happy that Sisters have started sending out their first packages, happy farmgirl next week when they check their mailboxes.
Have a beautiful weekend ladies. I finally got my Christmas down about an hour ago, just was not in the mood but it is finished now. Hurray, now I will put up my Valentine's Tree:-)
Hugs to all of you and my very special farmgirl Sister/Helper Joan.

I wish I can post pics. Maybe I will figure out how.

But who ever my S.S. is she knows me well, and she just made my day. She sent me a book on Vintage Collage Works and I love it. Some hot chocolate mix with candy cane rimmer to put in it, a tag with a vintage pic of a cowgirl with a rocking horse, vintage PostCard and a decorated
clothes pin, a bag of York Peppermint Patties and the cutest sweet card has a vintage picture on the front of three little girls that had farmgirl sisters on the front and a sweet note . THANK YOU , THANK YOU , THANK YOU to my sweet sweet Secret Sister. I just love love love it.
BIG HUGS Marlee

I found a wonderful package in the mailbox today from my secret sister. There was a sweet label on front with a notepad, coffee and a puzzle that is interesting or at least that is what I think it is. The coffee works great. I do not have a Keurig but do have a pot that makes single cups. Thanks to my farm girl sister.

Be Well

Thank you my secret sister. I was so surprised to get something wonderful in the mail today, I just adore all my farm girl mail beyond words. I received a cute sock monkey card, that really brought me a smile. Then inside I found a cute owl appliqué and a really pretty pendant. Thank you so much my wonderful secret sister.

Thank you so much Secret Sister. I am overwhelmed by all these good things. I love the big "N" and the candy was so yummy. The fabric and chenelle will be perfect for my doll making.

Make everyday a celebration of the heart.
