It's sitting in my room, patiently (like it has a choice, lol) waiting for the reveal. Got the Disney postcard, the stickers, pens, scrapbook scissors (I may have thanked you for those all ready -- it's all a blur of WONDERFUL surprises). LOVE all the games and adorable eCards. You're right on the penguin game... 3rd level was TOUGH! My 10 yr old was kibbutzing (sp?) me the whole time... "What are you DOING Mom??? Not that one... Oh geez..." LOL! Oh, yea, I got a wonderful Mickey 50th pin from an ebay seller, may I assume that was from you? I'd been doing loads of ebay buying, so got this one, opened it up, and my son and I sat there wondering when I'd bought this, and then I thought, duhhh, secret pal, LOL! It's gorgeous! I can't wait for the reveal. Of course, I noticed the postmark on the reveal gift is Canada, but I have no idea whether you used a forwarding service. There was the bracelet link that came from the midwest (if I remember correctly) early on. Oh, geez... I have no idea, LOL! Well, thanks for all the showering of gifts and attention. You are a truly awesome secret pal, and I consider myself exceptionally lucky that I've had 4 of the best secret pals ever throughout the history of the bash! Take care, and have a great week! Diane

Thanks! Can't wait til Wednesday!!!

Originally Posted By tapdancemom Secret Pal, I love both the cards, thanks so much. The first one was very sweet and Christmasy and fit right in with the snow/ice storm day we're having. And as for the second one, it took two trys but Dancer finally won

My reveal gift!! I opened the package at first because it didn't tell me not to...there were 5 wrapped gifts inside. Three of the gifts were "just because" gifts, and two are "reveal day" gifts. These two reveal gifts are wrapped in paper with dogs and doggy bones on them...is this a hint I wonder? I opened the first gift cause it said I could, and got three heart shaped glitter ornaments! This is soooooo cool because this year our tree's theme is very glittery...They look so cute next to the silver moons and glitter spheres that are hanging on the tree!! Thank you!! The second gift said to wait a day to open, so I opened it right away...How could I not. (Sorry...) It was homemade jam! Very good, too, I might add! Thanks again. I was good, though, and waited until Sunday to open the third gift. It was a cinnamon scented candle. It smells wonderful! I kept it lit in the living room as we cooked turkey with all the trimmings in the kitchen. (just a sidenote..I actually made gravy from the drippings for the first time in my life...and it was pretty good, surprisingly enough...) I cannot wait to open the last remaining gifts...the reveal gifts. It is very hard to see them just sitting there begging to be opened. Only two more days though! And, the Dolphins won again yesterday! Woo hoo! As I said, what a great weekend!

She wasn't familiar with the protocol for thanking someone who sends a bag of poop anonymously, so I said, "Relax, Urs--" er, I mean, "Relax, Secret Pal, I can send out a thank you to whoever was kind enough to send the unexpected gift to you." It's kind of driving her crazy. Anyone wanna fess us? I'm guessing it's someone who doesn't live very close to her. Otherwise, you would have just put the bag on her doorstep, set it on fire, then rang the doorbell and ran, right?

To answer your question I will be online for part of the day on reveal day (assuming the power isn't acting up that day). I have a dentist appt. at 1:30 so I'll be on before then and after that too hopefully depending on how much work they plan on doing to my poor mouth!
