Thank you THANK you for all the yummy treats, cookies, candies and cards that you have sent! We are enjoying them all too much.
More good mail continues to pour into my home.

I did a stocking exchange with Bren!
BREN is this great woman who does so much for her family! She is fun loving and I just love everything about her! She sent me a beautiful stocking and it was chalk full of good stuff and LOVE!! I received a BIG lotion bottle from Bath and Body works. It is from their holiday collection Winter Candy Apple! Mmmmmmmmmm... love it! I have to fight my two daughters off. I received ornaments after ornaments! I just love them. I look at them and will always remember you! Especially the one that reads,
Believe because I know how much you heart that saying! They are perfect and then I had hershey kisses that I had never tasted before. Candy Cane kisses. We got a BIG bag and notice there isn't a picture of that? YEP, we ATE them, every last one of them!! There was also a book in there. "Baghdad Christmas" It is very thought provoking and we learn that to gain everything we must sacrifice everything! I look forward to reading it tomorrow when I am at work. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much
BREN! You did a great job and have pampered me far more than I deserve! I hope you enjoy your stocking, when it gets to you NEXT YEAR 2009! No, I'm not that LAME! but, close!! If you have not met Bren, pop over to her blog! You will see her beautiful self along with her gorgeous family! They have so much fun together and I just love the girls she has adopted and the things they get into! Merry Christmas. Now, run on over and read her.
