I loved those colours.

Hey, I take Sweedish Fish in any size bag! I just love them!

And yes, the OPI ploishes are exact colors I would have picked out and I needed a new red for my toes. Thank you again!

Whittt8, I glad you liked everything! I had fun shopping for you.

^^ I loved it all! I made dinner using a recipe from the cookbook on Saturday night and my hubby loved it!

And to my elf (Dahlia Rayn) thank you so much for the card! That was sooo nice of you and it totally made my day!

Have we decided if we're going to do penpals or not? If so I would love to do it

SS for Melonzburngr and Concertina for status....copied PeaceLover18

 

[Dahlia_Rayn]

I think this was so much fun! I really hope everyone receives there packages, I want everyone to feel like they can participate next year! It was the best picking things for my elf, and when I got my package...wow! Girls you're the greatest and I'm so happy that I participated!
I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for the elves who haven't gotten their packages yet!

 

[TISH1124]

I have pm'd all the SS that have Elf's who have not yet received gifts and asked them to update the thread on the status of when they can expect to receive it.

 

[whittt8]

I feel really bad for the gals who havent gotten their gifts yet. I feel like I should go get you guys a gift because I wish you'd been able to experience it. Dont give up on the gift exchange idea completely! Maybe next time we do this we should have someone be like the watch dog and keep track of whether or not people are participating for sure and will be able to send something on time? I hope you guys get gifts and if you dont maybe other people can volunteer to be your late Santas? Just an idea, because I'd love to buy for someone again

 

[whittt8]

Ohhh and I think laguayca got hers but was out of town and wouldnt open it until she got back? I will go back through and check the thread, but for some reason I want to say she did??

 

[TISH1124]

^^ I 100% agree! Although everyone here are adults it's obvious some sort of supervision is required if this gift exchange is to continue.
In all honesty I am really sad for those who have not received their gifts we had over 2 months to get our gift to our ELF no matter how small or large the gift I am sure everyone was just excited for the surprise.

Thats exactly how I felt. I was just the idea that someone who didnt know you from Adam was going to spend their money on you for Christmas. It seriously was heartwarming for me and reinforced that there still are good people out there.

I did notice though that a few people that signed up did not even post their lists like they were supposed to, nor did they participate in the thread. Maybe they changed their minds? Idk, but I would hope that people wouldnt decide to be a part of something like this then booger out.
