Thank you KRISTI!!! '08 Christmas Swap

I have 2 sick boys today and we just got back from the doctor. I was having a "ho-hum" day until.... I saw this in my mailbox!!!
Cute packaging Kristi, love the stamps. I blurred our addresses since I'm not a private blog. Just lookin' out for ya! :)Hmmmm, is it a pair of shoes?
No...This t-shirt made me laugh out loud! "Santa's Favorite Blonde!" The other thing that made me laugh is that it's and XL and it will still be snug as a bug! I'm so glad you didn't try to be nice and get me a medium or something!And, you hit the BULLSEYE with this one. These little lounge socks are the best. I'm a foot fanatic. I wash my feet every night before bed (no kidding) and always put on something fuzzy and warm. A+++And looky looky here! Just call me Cleopatra ladies! This nail and body care kit is from the DEAD SEA! Here's the inscription on the box..."Minerals from the Dead Sea are filled with nature's rejuvenating forces and will pamper your skin with beauty essence renowned since (get this) THE DAYS OF CLEOPATRA!" It has a buffing block, nail file, cuticle oil and body lotion.
Kristi, you hit a home run girl! Thanks for making my day!!!

I'm on pins and needles waiting for Toni (Is It 5 o'clock yet?) to get my package!

Also, check out Bella~Mella for a chance to win an adorable Christmas apron. Melanie is a new blogger friend of mine. She's got a great blog. She share's her heart and she's a kindred spirit, because she also shares the crumbs in her butter!

Girl, I stressed out about your gift. I was looking for days for something home-decorish but I didn't know if you liked cutesy-Christmas or elegant-Christmas. A friend came over one night with that shirt on and I was like, "BINGO" that is what I'll get. It was the last one in the store. Anyway, I wanted to explain about the XL thing. I DO NOT think you are big. Those shirts just looked REALLY SMALL to me. I would have bought myself the XL so I went with that. Is it too small? If so, I can return it and send you the money. I think it was a juniors shirt. Anyway, she wore it with a striped long shirt underneath and it looked SOOO cute. I hope you liked it and didn't think it was cheesy. It just seemed to fit your personality.

Thank you, oh thank you for showing off my pitiful stamping job! I hope the American Eagle box didn't set you up for a fall. Ha!

Okay, for a blog swap rookie Miss Kristi did great! I love the shirt and I've never met you, but it does seem to fit your personality.

Oh, and that Dead Sea stuff...works GREAT! Seriously, my mom got suckered into that last year at the mall so she bought all of us girls a kit. If you do exactly what it says for your nails they will look SO SHINY...like you just had a manicure! I never wear polish so I love this stuff!

Good job, Kris!!!

Kristi Smalley, I LOVE this shirt!!! I'm wearing it tonight to our women's ministry meeting! I don't think it's cheesy at all. And, I know you don't think I'm big. All the sizes these days are like that. I bought a pair of sweatpants at Target and had to get an XL. I was like...what do the poor women that really ARE an XL think of themselves when it doesn't fit them. It's a conspiracy I tell ya! I also can't wait to pamper myself with the dead sea treatment! Maybe I should do a before and after of my nails for you.

That shirt is so cute! And we all KNOW how much you love nails! (Where is the winter O.P.I. pick, by the way??)
How did you send the package so I can keep an eye out for it. The mail already came today, but it wasn't there. It's really not a big deal, but I know you are stressin' about it! Have fun at your women's ministry meeting! :)

Merry Christmas!
