A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Fall Gift Swap keep this one till the end!

Here I am with my large flag and my wind chimes---silly chimes--you cannot see the frog.

diane would NEVER do something to make you blush shirley NOT

diane does give the best gifts and is such a wonderful person. and her gifts can be way fun!!!

Carol Jean, it's SO nice to see you--you look great! That's a cute flag and I like the windchimes!!!!

Diane does give wonderful gifts....I wonder what she sent Shirley?

carol, diane, I LOVE the flag!!!

I got one picture then my batteries went dead. I've got them charging but I couldn't wait to post.

You guys know me better than my family. They never have an idea for a gift for me. Patunia knows exactly.

She sent 2 perfect garden decorated dish cloths, 2 packages of narcissi bulbs (can't get enough of those - I love them), a picture frame, a precious gnome rain gauge - it is so cute, a lion WEBKINZ!!!!!, webkinz trading cards (you guys will have to tell me what to do with those), and a webkinz bookmark and a basil herb pot. I can't believe you knew what to get me - perfect!!!

I'll post individualized pictures when my batteries are charged.

I love all of your stuff Sheri, I just got the lion and named it Simba from the Lion King.....I love the rain gauge too! What a nice package!

The webkinz cards with the codes on them....you just go into the code shop on webkinz world and enter those numbers on there and you get cool stuff!

I know. I love that rain gauge. I've had cheapo plastic ones before but never one so fancy.

My grand daughter, Darbi who is 8, can pick out good presents for me and my daughter, Ginger, does pretty good sometimes but no one else can. The gifts I've gotten from people on this forum are perfect. And I'm not just saying that. Do you think it's because we all garden in one fashion or another?

Great gifts. Patunia did a great job! The lions are cute. What is his name?

your welcome Loz---some day---I might post a close up- --

ya know, I have not ever posted myself before have I???

Who is still waiting for gifts??

I think we are now just waiting on Cinta to get home and get her gifts!

thanks much, tamara--

I think it nice to have a face to put to peoples names too!!!

:mad: i'm upset. my package is "stuck" in atlanta if the tracking is to be believed...

but according to the tracking, it's been there since tues somehow, i think it's left atlanta.... i hope.

I can understand your frustration, Jiffy--- it seems at times as if those tracking numbers are pointless.

so today it says that the box was delivered yesterday at 11 am. and the one i sent catlover was delivered at 1 pm. so i gotta call her!!!

I am home got home last night and my package was in my living room. Thank you JIffy. I do not know when it arrived. My daughter said she thinks it was Friday. She said I got so many packages she does not know when it arrive.
As soon as I get my tired butt out of the bed I will post some pics.

Thank you so much. I really like it and it is something I need and will use throught the holidays.

You all have to wait to see this. IT IS REALLY SPECIAL.

Wooohoooo, you got it and you're home!

well.................. this is a long time to make us wait......

Congratulations to all of you! Everyone got wonderful gifts. I've really enjoyed seeing all the pics of what everyone got. I can't wait for the next one where I can hopefully participate.

cinta? did you really like it? did everything make it in one piece? did you get all the stuff from behind the main thing? the two "breakables" that were stuffed in the back, i have duplicates (i got one for me and one for my daughters) so if they were broken, let me know, i can replace them.

also, i found the rest of the stuff i had planned to send, so it will come next week.

Cinta--so glad you got home and so glad you got your poackage--BUT


WHERE ARE THE PICTURES ????

yo know I gotta have pictures, right??? that way I can get the gift vicariously-- it is so much fun !!!

ditto carol!

thats what i am saying wendy !!


BTW how are you doing??/

good, just "babying" dog, she is sick so i gave her a shot of penicillian and some chicken broth!

I am impressed--penicillan--wow lucky puppy.

and they say chick soup cures what ails you--so good !!!

and i wanna know that everything made it in one piece! (per item... except the ones with multiple pieces required, and the one that will fall apart if you touch it)
