There's some kind of Christmas conspiracy going on!!
Yesterday I went in to work early so that I could "work my magic" on yet another last minute Power Point for the Chief (oh - yea) and the girls at work tell me I have presents. What??? Presents??? "What happen to we exchange with our partners?" "Well... we love you".
So I open my gifts and what do I find? The cutest ever Brodie picture frame from Jackie!
Look how they go together..."Like peas n carrots"
And this adorable glass ornament- Which Brodie thought was real interesting too.
Then I get home and find this in the mail box!
This I knew was coming from
Socks that Rock Hollyday yarn!!! This is even yummier in person than it was on her blog!
Accompanying STR was a lamp work (looks like) stitch marker by Sunneshine in red, a pad cutey sheep note paper and a sample of Soak to wash my finished Frismasy sockies in. This is my first STR yarn so I am pretty darned excited about it.
The biggest surprise by far was this package of goodies.
These adorable stitch little dice markers...obviously for the gambler in me ;)
And this crazy Jingle Bell pen! This is such a Jeanne-like pen, I played with it half the night...Already I have had to move it out of Brodies reach and he tried to snatch one of my skeins of yarn. I think he thought it was another bungee baby.
I'll tell you why this was such a surprise...Dawn is a sneaky girl...I would have sworn I just exchanged address' with her on the ...oh -15th according to my email. Yet this little surprise package was shipped on the 12th!! SNEAKY SNEAKY DAWN! How did she do it?? There is no way that I am that forgetful! (somehow I think I am going to be really embarrassed when she finally tells me)
I am so blessed in my friends! And do they know me or what! I could not have asked for anything better!!
Many many thanks to my dear friends!

Love the package TN Dawn sent...beautiful!
Lots of hugs sent your way!
Of course I opened them...it is the rule here that you have to open them with the gifter present.
Mail is free game;)
I am going to have to use a sock pattern that will do all that yarn justice.
Oooooh, I love the stitch markers, and the yummy yarn.
Enjoy all of your surprises.
