I received my goodies from my partner. and I love them. The Boo blocks have old fashioned Halloween designs on the back and the bag was full of all the candy. I am a complete sucker for old fashioned prints like what is on my little goodie bag

I received a package today that looked like it had been opened and retaped. The tracking tag was over the return address. The tape had ripped off part of the return address. The only thing I could recognize was the zip code of 49032. I googled the zip code and it showed Centreville, MI.
There was no name inside the package. Inside was a beautiful brown paper bag journal or album. I love it. Someone spent a lot of time on this. It has a list of references to Thanksgiving. I am going to start out writing in it about Halloween night. Our only trick or treater was our grandson. We live way out in the country. The rest will be daily writings of my count down to our big family get together on Thanksgivng.
Thank you to my mystery partner. Please reveal yourself. Can't wait to see who you are.
Hugs,
Patsy.

Thank You Liscuva! I absolutely LOVE this adorable pumpkin you sent me! It is so sweet, happy & beautifully made! I've been tardy as well, your box with sweet treats (lol photo of those no longer possible) card & pumpkin came Saturday. I brought him down to show my Grandmother (she got me turned onto MJF) she was delighted, so he spent Halloween Day with her :) He is now back home from his visit.
To the partner waiting for my box: it went out on Monday & the Postmaster said 2-3 days, sorry for the delay! I took it to town on Sat to send it out & left your address at home... (and couldn't figure out how to get it out of an email folder from my phone! grrr)
Thanks for all the Farmgirl fun!

I got a cute little "widow" owl from Dianna yesterday, but what with one thing & another I opened it today. As directed, she is now out of mourning. The little cat and pumpkins are darling, too. Thank you so much!

I'm sorry I had been a bit behind this month... With Halloween preparations and two hyperactive kids in the house, I didn't had time to mail it before... But it is now done so please my sisterfarm girl partner, don't despair. It should reach you soon!
Hugs,

What a darling owl :)
Sherry I'm glad you like the little bats!
Marilyn, I worked on my bat project at my Grandmother's also - she was amused by it. She is 95 and used to sew and do projects all the time.
So much fun to see all the farmgirl creativity!!

Dirtduchess/ Patsy. The album came from me. Seems it had a hard ride getting to you? It had a card in it when it started. I am happy it made it to you and you like it. |

Lola, thanks so much for the fantastic vintage apple dishtowel that you transformed into a cute zipper pouch! It's really pretty and will match my fall décor perfectly. I'll try to post a photo later this week I don't have time tonight. Just wanted to let you know it arrived!
Cheers! ~ Marilyn

I rec'd my October Mail Art from Mary Jo this weekend, thank you so much! Love my handmade Gratitude hanging. I have the perfect spot so everyone can see it on Thanksgiving. And I was in need of new recipe cards so very happy to receive those too along with handwritten note...  |
