I will post pictures later. Vanilla cupcake scented candles-How did you know my most favorite treat is white cake???? YUM!Thank you!!

I'm glad you liked it, and I din't know that was your favorite, but glad I picked those out. My daughter likes that scent and I love the creme Caremel. I was hoping you liked candles. You're Welcome.

My package should have arrived at my person's home several days ago, but I've not seen a post.

She's been posting about other things so I know she's been online...

 

[_minihorses4ever_]

According to UPS tracking, my person's package was delivered this morning.. Hopefully she will be posting soon, I can't wait to see how she likes the gifts!

I am still anxiously waiting the arrival of mine!

THANK YOU SO MUCH MONTANA! I just received my gift! I opened immediately in my car, couldn't help it. I love candy and I have already opened the Huckleberry Jelly Beans and the Cherry Chocolate Taffy...yummmmmmmmmmmmmm! I have also put out the Christmas Kitchen towels since my old ones have holes! I will have to get a pic for my pretty ornament and make up the Blueberry Brownies tonight. What wonderful gifts from Montana! I was fortunate enough to go through Montana this last summer by train on my way to visit family in Oregon. I missed Glacier Nat'l Park because it was dark but saw it on my way back and it was gorgeous! What a beautiful state! Thanks again and I hope to be another Secret Santa next year!

Also wanted to say that I FINALLY sent my gift out as well. Too much going on with kid birthdays and stuff. But it's sent and priority so whoever should receive it by Saturday!

Thanks

 

[HorseMom]

I'm a little late too. Its going out tomorrow with UPS. I get to work before the Post Office opens and get out after it closes. Makes things very difficult. I feel terrible for being so late.

I never claimed to be a patient person...lol...so waiting for my package to arrive is making me a little crazy...lol

 

[Kitty]

OK Little Ribbie (Heidi) WE LOST THE BATTLE and opened the gifts. WE LOVE THEM ALL!!!! (esp the coconut patties which I will HIDE FROM JESSIE as they are my favorite thing in the world and I never get them) You again were WAY to generous and I want you to know your gifts are greatly GREATLY appreciated

And I hate to say it but my SS gifts were just mailed today going out west

I have been working and had to talk the other half nicely into mailing it today for me. SO with that said it will be there by midweek or earlier and PATIENCE is a good thing as I am hoping my gifts will make you smile

 

[kuelqhs]

I received mine! Thank you Deni Bruton from Kuehl Quarter Horses & Miniatures (forum name Kuelghs). I received the very helpful book "Miniature Horses- A Veterinary Guide for Owners & Breeders" sent directly from Chimacum Tack. Hopefully I don't have to use it too much but I am sure it will come in handy

. I love books and have already looked through it quite a bit. It has great pictures! Thanks so much!
Shawntelle- I am glad you enjoyed your present. I had fun shopping for it. I hope you enjoy the CD. When you noted that you like Country music, I immediately thought of this recording. Hope you have a Happy Holiday!

Tanya

Happy you like it, sorry that I sent something that wasn't on your list but I thought boy would that be handy to have.

And to fix a few type oops its Kuel Quarter Horses & Miniatures, and forum name Kuelqhs. (don't worrie about getting that wrong, most people turn the Q into a G for some reason.)

 

[Irish Hills Farm]

I would like to thank my Secret Santa, Sarah13 for the lovely gifts she has sent me.

They are truly appreciated and will be put to good use!

Thank you again.

 

[LittleRibbie]

Hi Minihorses4ever

FLFlyingW did get her package this morning. I just had time tonight to get on the computer.

I think I liked my homemade card so much with the candy cane and the nice sweat message. I had on my wish list a Jolly Ball for my colts and they were out playing with it this afternoon. They really like it and they each hold onto the handle part and run side by side-to funny!! To get a gift for my colts made my Christmas special and we will enjoy it for a long time together. Florida does get chilly and the blanket you sent will keep my legs warm without being heavy as I sit in my wheelchair and watch my babies.

A big Hug for you Breanne. Love Donna

PS: You live real close to my husband's family. When I saw the address at first I thought it was something from them.

 

[Kira98]

[basshorse]

Hello! My SS gift(s) arrived this weekend! I think my husband and 7 year old daughter enjoyed it as much as I did. We debated on openning it before Christmas actually arrived or savoring the big box sitting on our table. I still don't know who my SS is??? We love the beautiful horse candle holder (proudly displayed on our kitchen table), wonderful ornament (hanging on the tree), and very cool stationary! Who do I thank for all of these wonderful gifts...

~ Becky

Sorry Becky. I realized after I sent the gift that I forgot to put my forum name in/on it.

I'm glad you liked it. Merry Christmas!

Thanks so much for the great gifts! Have a very Merry Christmas! ~ Becky

 

[divigo]

Oh My!!! A gift from "divigo" - Trisha of Holland!!!
And it is way too much..

A pretty horse mouse pad (that I needed badly - on my desk now), AND a BEAUTIFUL Mini halter.. never seen one like it before.. so different.. Did you make it Trisha???

Also some cheeses, waffles, season and other assorted eats..

A song CD that Alex & I played, now we are pretending to talk like we are from Holland..

I am calling my Jordy dog a "gooten dog".. we are so funny here..

3 sets of pretty wood shoes!

Also a small bottle of some potion that is suppose to make me "feel right & alert".. Ooooh… looking forward to drinking the stuff!!

Should be interesting!

Thank you Trisha!! It is so fun to get this package!! Merry Christmas to you!!!!

You are sooo very welcome, trust me!

Glad the package arrived on time and in good shape!

I collect little items (not the food

) during the year and put them in my closset for safe keepings to make a nice SS present for lilbeginnings.

Always try to send out a package with lot's of European goodies to make it a little more international than just the Netherlands.

The food I bought two days before sending the package so if you don't want to eat it right away you can keep it for a while.

Warm up the little waffers over a cup of coffee or in the stove; they will taste 10 times as good!!

No I did not make the halter, but I am glad you like it (hope it fits

).

Looking at the picture it does look like a lot; but it comes from a warm heart and it was no trouble at all!

Like I prommissed in my card I will send you some tulip bolls (and other kinds) as soon as they are available again.

For you to put in your garden, so you don't forget about us overhere in the Netherlands.

So for now I am keeping your address safe, because I need it again.

Glad you liked everything, have a wonderfull and healthy christmas.

Trisha

 

[divigo]

I need to explain one more thing:

The CD has Sinterklaas songs on it. Here in the Netherlands we did not celebrate Christmas (up untill 5 years ago) but we celebrate Sinterklaas.

He is a saint that arrives in our country on december 5th and he has a lot of pieten (helpers) to help him distribute all the presents to the children.

His helpers are black from the soot of the chimney. It has never been a racial thing, but just to be on the safe side and try to keep from hurting anyone's feelings we now also have purple and other colloured helpers.

It is a national holiday for us and a really old tradition.
