Hi Secret Sister, I just your your postcard from Cozumel, it only took almost 2 months to get here. I love Cozumel so much we go for a week every winter, I missed you by 2 weeks. Thank you for the nice surprise in my mailbox today, I am so touched you thought of me on your vacation and in each port, cruises are so much fun aren't they.
Hugs Julie

I'll be leaving love notes all over the place for Hubby! I'll get a picture your wonderful package up soon (minus the p-nut butter cup) YOu have been a blessing to me these last few months, and I am looking forward to meeting you. Thank you dearest sister!

Dear Secret Sister, I returned home yesterday from a fun trip of back roads and antiquing and checked my mailbox. Wow! A huge box from you. Just made my day. Fingered through all the tissue paper and found...a book on Blocks and Projects, knitting needles, pink yarn, a knitting book, goat soap, a pretty porcelain box, scarecrow and turkey material, tea and sweets. And a real diamond-like ring. Love jewelry. The tea and sweets made our after dinner time. I have been wanting to learn how to knit so now I am really going to try. Thank you so much. Just can't wait to find out who you are.

My secret sister is absolutely THE best. I have received the nicest and sweetest things. So who is she? I will now give Darlene a great big thank you and wish I could give her a hug in person. Darlene, what a special person you are. This last package with the candy, art things and beautiful post card of the glass beach in CA are wonderful. I am unable today to post a picture because my computer is down and I am writing this on my neighbor's laptop. Please forgive me as I would really like everyone to see what you sent me.
Hugs,
Nancy

Marlee, Marlee, Marlee is my secret sister, so glad to meet you my dear! What a wonderful secret sister you have been to me! My reveal package arrived today, the chocolate is already gone and also included: a really beautiful scrapbook/memory book. Did you make that! Really, really nice! Lots of material (for my stash), Cute sticky notes, a brunette headed doll to dress, a sachet, some lace, an air freshner doll. You were truly good to me, and I so agree with the treasure hunt you spoke of in your note; I, too, am always on the look out for little gifties for my farmgirl sisters! Thanks again Marlee! |

Dear Secret Sister,
First, an apology for taking so very, very long to post this thank you. I have just finished a MAJOR exam for school that took me weeks to write. I am just now able to pick up the pieces for the rest of my life...but all is well : )
I so appreciate the wonderful Peanut's Gang box that you sent and all of the goodies inside. Thanks for the little garden "rock", the dried tropical fruits (yum!), the peanuts stickers, and the pretty blue notecards. Your gifts are so thoughtful. And most of all, thank you for your good wishes and your prayers. You have been a bright spot during a very busy time.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Warmly, Pam

I am so happy to see that secret sisters are being revealed and I love all the happiness coming through with the words you write. I sure hope all of you had as much fun as I have had reading all your post and helping where I can, being your hostess with Joan has been such a blessing for me, and I can not wait for our next one, watch for the details. I hope all of you will want to join us again for the next round to meet yet another new Secret Sister and getting all the wonderful farmgirl mail in your box. Remember Sisters you have 22 days left to reveal yourselves to your Secret Sister, I know all are waiting patiently. Thank you all for making this one of the best and most rewarding Secret Sisters and I look forward to hostessing again for the next round. Joan are you up to it? Hugs to all, Debbie

Hi Sue, I was so happy to be your Secret Sister. I enjoyed the treasure hunt every month. I am so glad you enjoyed all the goodies that I sent you. And yes I did make the scrapbook/journal . I thought you could put things in it from all the sewing you do. From patterns etc... Whatever you want to use it for. You were always so appreciative, it always made me happy. And your welcome!

OH MY GOODNESS MARCY LUNDY...you get the Award for spoiling a Farm Sister until she stinks like the pig-pen. LOL ![](icons/icon_smile_tongue.gif) Can I just say...I think we are twins...because you just know my likes and loves so well. How can that be humanely possible!? I don't know...but I do know that this has been such a Delightful Experience this Round of Secret Sisters. I have had good rounds, bad rounds, nothing rounds and fabulous rounds in the past. But I have never had anyone get it so "Spot-On". Thank You So Much! This is what I got...as you can't see it all very well in the picture.
1. A Wonderful Revealing Card 2. A Flower Bracelet that I know you made...and I Love,Love, Love it! 3. The Charm Necklace I thought was for me until I read the pkg and it is for my car! My Sassy Car (VW Bug) will love it. I call her Sassy because she has Eye Lashes with Purple Rhinestone Eye-Liner....around her head lights. And Yes, I put them there. I get so many great reactions with her. So, more Bling for Sassy is always good! LOL 4. Mary E. Friendship Stationery and Pen (I had just looked at those yesterday at Michaels and almost bought them...but got Mary E. Teapot Stationery instead for a Tea Swap. So, yahoo...I got them anyway! 5. Two adorable tiny white ceramic birds...already sitting amongst my plants with other birds. 6. A bird Tea Bag Holder...I'm presuming. So Sweet. 7. Note Card Stock...always nice to have for my Mail Art Swaps. 8. Note Pad 9. Adorable Journal 10. Two Skeins of Yarn...which I hope I can find more on-line because I want to knit a Shawl with it. In fact started it tonight. (I have always been optimistic!) LOL 11. A Button Factory...what FUN that is going to be. Can't Wait to play with that. 12. Dark Dove Chocolate...one of my favorites. 13. Hazelnut and Choc. Supreme Cocoas. 14. Shea Butter Strawberry Lip Balm 15. A Craft Magazine that is so Wonderful that I am going to buy one for My Secret Sister's Reveal Box too. Lots of cool projects I want to try in there. Fun Stuff! 16. A Tinee-Tiny little page book marker with a bird nest on it.
I hope I didn't miss anything! What a Huge Pick-Me-Up each of my packages were. My family is going through a lot of ups and downs, highs and lows, including several huge Crisis we are dealing with.
So, I just want to say to Each Secret Sister out there...You Just Never Know How God will use your love and generosity in the life of someone else. To you...it might just be such a Fun thing to do...shop and fill a box of goodies for someone. But that someone might just be hanging onto Life by a Thread at the moment...but your thoughtfulness and love...might be just the Thing that keeps her going another day....because somebody really does care.
Thanks so Much Marcy...for strengthening my Thread!
Love and Hugs, Peggy ![](icons/icon_smile.gif)

Hi Peggy,
It was an honor to be your secret sister. I tried so hard to pick out things that I thought you would like. I'm so glad that you did!! I thought I really took a chance on some of the things, but you seemed to like everything. YEAH!! lol!! Will always keep you in my thoughts and prayers and I hope we can stay in touch.
big hugs and much love Marcy

I checked my mail today as it has been a few days, and there is a big box from Julie (treelady). I knew it was her reveal gift for her SS, as she is on vacation and I ask Julie to send it to me, and when she returns from vacation she will make her own post. But, also in the box was something for me, imagine my surprise to find out that Julie was half of my Secret Sister Team (Angels), my Dear Friend Joan was the other half. Don't you just love Angels? Wow, wow, I was so surprised and happy to know who had been sending me all the wonderful gifts and cards and now I know. I have posted pictures of all the lovely gifts that I had received over the months and now I post the picture of my reveal gift from Julie. A beautiful MJF Pillow, I love it as I love pillows and it looks so nice on my bed, and a beautiful pink Girlfriends Book with wonderful Girlfriend/Sister Sentiments such a special gift. And, a sweet card, thank you so much Julie and Joan for always making me feel so special and sending just lovely gifts every month. As y'all know I love farmgirl mail, heck ask Tammy she will tell you, she and others are always sending a little gift or card, especially now with what I am going through with my hubby, it does not matter if it is just a card or a letter from my many pen pals, and other Sister Friends, I treasure it all as it was sent by very special farmgirls Sisters and there are many. As has Peggy the last few months have been rough and we both seem to have a long road a head of us with our hubby's, but it is our farmgirl Sisters, who bring joy to our lives and can with just a little note put a smile on our faces, so thank all of you so very much. I feel Blessed to be a part of such a wonderful group of women. And again thank you all so very much for making the round of SS so successful and I hope all of you will join us for the next round. Thank you again, and again Julie and Joan for being the very Special Farmgirl Sisters and Friends you are. Hugs, Debbie

As this round of Secret Sister winds down in just a couple of weeks I wanted to share with all of you the Secret Sisters who are still my very special friends and we still keep in close touch and it has been almost 4 years since I had my first Secret Sister.Now these are just the friends I have made through Secret Sister, not other Swaps and barters. In no particular order I am honored to call Sue Feely, Ruth Yarbrough, Shannon Carlson, my very first SS, (a young mother who lives in Canada), just received another long letter from Shannon today, Pam Barnes-Palty, Liz Taylor, and now Julie and Joan (Although Joan and I have been friends for sometime, and Julie and I have barter ed together a few times). Of course I probably missed a couple of farmgirls and I apologize, I can not find my list, it has been 4 years but you know who you are, each of you are very special and have touched my life and I thank all of you. And, this is why I chose with Joan to be the hostess now of SS, a wonderful way to meet and get to know wonderful women who have come into my life. Hugs, Debbie

Debbie...the pillow and journal are lovely! And isn't it true the Wonderful Friendships that can be made from Secret Sisters (and yes, other Swaps too). It is just a huge blessing to find women all over the country who become True Blue Friends and are there for you through thick and thin!
Thanks for Hostessing Secret Sisters and always being on here to enjoy and share together.
love and hugs, peggy

Hi Nancy, You have been so sweet in this Secret Sister Swap. I received my reveal package today. Wow! I loved all my goodies. The apron you made. Another Dotee doll for my collection, she will be keeping the other two company now. Love love love the necklace and the sewing book, I just keep picking it up and looking through it. Now I want to go get started making something. Thanks for the journal, my coin pouch, the rubber stamps, the hankies, some great tea that I have not tried before. The little wooden tray is too cute, my grandaughter and I will have to have tea one afternoon and use the tray. And I can put the heart boxes to good use in my scrapbook-craft room. Nancy thank you so much for being a wonderful secret sister. I do not have a real sister so this has been so much fun for me. With all the surprise boxes that you have sent. Thanks again and have a great weekend.![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.com/Snitz/Images/4.13.2013 004.jpg)

The recent Secret Sister Swap left me with a sour taste in my mouth...actually my heart. The lady who has been receiving my carefully thought out packages has not once acknowledged receipt of the packages. I wish I would have taken a photo of each one before I sent them out. I'm not a gushy, sweetie, honey type of person...but do need to know if what I do is appreciated...just a little bit. More than a note via the hostess of the swap that you've been out of town...that covered the first package...what about the others you've received??? I'm sorry if you've had some tragedy in your life that has taken up all of your time, prevented you from typing a thank you. Let someone know...those kinds of things can be overlooked, allowed for. You would most certainly need the bit of cheer that a package in the mail delivers...I'm all for that and could have showered you with kindness. I'm a good person. But I can't be a proper secret sister if I don't know these things. Or, drop out if you just can't be bothered.
I hope I have sufficiently acknowledged the packages I have received ... I did look forward to them and thank you for each and every item. It was a bit of sunshine for both my husband and myself. He texted me at work to let me know when they arrived... "You got a package from your farm-girl friend today".
Sorry for the sourpuss post...I just want a good partner one of these times :(

I am glad you like everything Sherry. I have had a lot of fun being your SS. I don't have a sister either and always wanted one. Being on MJF has given me many "sister" friends.
Hugs,
Nancy
