Originally Posted By smedley Sorry, lost me for a minute there, I opened a red ribbon tied envelope to find the most beautiful hand made card, with handmade Disneyland tags to use for my scrapbooking when I get into it properly, they really are beautiful, and obviously personal and involving much effort, for some reason I stopped being able to see the screen for a moment...... Ahem, anyway normal service, may, now resume....

So DH got home a little while ago and opened his 2 presents...... He received...... A reindeer which poops jellybeans!! (most hilarious!) And his favourite food in the entire world (not available in the UK) Blue Jello!!! He is a *very* happy man (doesn't take much lol!)
Originally Posted By Labuda I came *this* close to buying ajsmommy one o those jellybean-pooping reindeer! Would ahve filled it with Dr. Pepper-flavored Jelly Bellies had I done so! lol
Originally Posted By pennyring Oh excellent, smedley!!! How wonderful that it's finally arrived!!! Seriously, I was starting to second guess myself... what if it looked suspicious... what if it didn't pass customs inspection... what if the postal employees used it for soccer practice in the back room!?!?!? What if it got returned to me for some reason... what if it was languishing all alone in lost package land?!?! Should I plan for a "replacement" reveal package? What to do?? What to do?!?! Aaauuuughhhhhh!!!! But yay! You got it! I'm so glad!! Thank you so much for doing an online reveal!! It was so fun to follow along with you, and such detailed descriptions! Not to mention how sweet and sentimental you are. Awww... hugs!! I'm so glad I got to be your pal, smed! It's been so much fun!
Originally Posted By smedley It was just as great, if not better, for me pennyring! And seriously I think if you get bored of CK then my DH may be available to marry you apparently! You are now officially known as the queen of blue jello lol!
Originally Posted By pennyring Hehehe.. I just giggled outloud! If he starts getting low on the blue Jello, let me know and we'll get another 1/2 dozen or so boxes off to you ASAP! We can't let him go thru these Jello emergencies alone!!
