Yay! Here comes my stocking! Good thing too, I've been going barefoot on one foot ever since I sent it! ((GRIN))

Ok....HOW did DAN get first on the list??!

Has he been bribing Santa again? Perhaps giving him too much Rum Cake & Eggnog?

Bunny~ Brooke MADE me do it! (plus his label came in his box!)

A friend from the Brug Forum has her pup entered in a dog contest. More votes are welcomed!!!

later...April

Here is a link that might be useful: Vote for Fendi!!!!

lol... nothing works better for the Man in Red than a bit of eggnog and rum cake! haven't you ever noticed his red nose? of course, he does share, I mean, after all, look at Rudolph!!!

April,

Thank you so much. I am so excited and can't wait to get my package. You guys are great.

Linda

Woohoo...I'm very excited to see my name on the first seven list!

Happy December,

YIPPEE!

Garden webbers rock!!! I got my stocking today, and boy oh boy was it stuffed. I had so many seeds that I have coveted and am so thrilled that I did this swap. Thank you to all those generous swappers out there in 'cyber land'.

A special (((April))) to our organizer! You are awesome!

La Donna

Will today be the day? This has been so much fun, and my stocking hasn't even arrived yet! April, thank you for doing all of this, it's been great! (pretending I'm asleep so Santa won't skip me) ***whispering to myself "will it come today?"***

Mine was delivered to the PO yesterday, but I don't get it til today...I'm so excited!!!

Hmmmm the GW's website isn't wrapping text. Is anyone else having to scrooolllllll way to the side to read it?? Strange...maybe it's my browser.

Yay....thanks so much, April, and fellow gardeners...I received my suprise box yesterday on a day that hubby and I agreed was horrid....so this gift was a huge mood booster! So many cute things....I think the kids stole all of my candy already! And the seeds were really great! I will definitely participate next year as well.
Happy Holidays and thanks to ALL!
Sincerely,
Jodi B.

April,
I received my stocking today!!!!! Yeah!!!!!!! It was just packed FULL of wonderful surprises and seeds! Pepper and I had a ball going through everything! Thanks so much for hosting this swap and thanks to everyone who shared some of their Christmas spirit!

Joan

Want to know how to really enjoy the Christmas spirit? Listen to a bit of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra while fending off (then giving up) the cats while looking through your Christmas stocking! My roommate Joe and I opened up the box together after dinner tonight, and had an absolute blast eating candy, smelling candles, perusing through the seeds, and generally just having a ton of fun going through the whole thing!
BIG THANKS to April for hosting this, and BIG THANKS to everyone for sharing!!! You all are a GREAT group of people!

Peace.
-Dan

p.s. Oh yeah, add falling snow to how to get "in the holiday mood".
((grin))

Received my AMAZING stocking today!!!!!!! HOLY COW what a batch of goodies!!! Thank you to everyone for sharing and Thank you April for hosting this fun swap :) It's been great!!!

Take care and Happy Holidays everyone :)

Toni

My stocking arrived today!!I think I`ll save it til Christmas to open it!!THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH !!!

Oh I forgot to say THANK YOU so much for the Brugs cuttings!! Two are already rooted WOOOHOO! Can't wait to see them grow up lol.

WOW! My stocking came to day and man was that box packed! Thank you so much, everyone, and especially our wonderful hostess, April, for a fantastic job! My daughter couldn't wait to dig into the box and have at the candies! I loved the scrapbooking items and my daughter and I are going to make some gingerbread cookies tonight and use the mix and cookie cutters! There was a package of goodies for my dogs, too. Note pads and Christmas pencils (stolen by daughter) hot chocolate, and so much more! I couldn't believe there were so many seeds and a even a few bulbs, so I will definitely have to make a special bed for all of them. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, stay warm and enjoy the season!
