Alma! Fingers crossed my present gets to you soon!!!!! And in one, unopened piece!!! I did send it kinda late, but it's sent!! lol.
Moo, those socks are hilarious!!
Kayte, I scrolled down and knew right away that was a present from you! Jr. Mints - check! Petosky stone - check! Snow flake ornaments - check! hehe. Very cute!
And yeah, I see Paul_C and Swede Boy on Facebook all the time. I hope I'm wrong, but I bet they're just being lazy boys who haven't gotten around to buying or sending their gifts yet, which is such a shame because those presents to Paul were awesome! I love the little guitar with his name on it. And tons of chocolate!
I <3 boardie exchanges. |

Here is what I receive from Debbie :):
 
The chocolates where really yummie! and loved the fact that they came with philosophy!! =D I got Pitagoras, a Chinese Proverb, Seneca, Mark Twain and Napoleon! =D
Yay! You like your Christmas present - that's great! My boys had fun trying to paint your treasure chest and my little one stuck on the musical instruments (can't really see them in the picture) You were supposed to have more coins but they thought they deserved a reward so they ate some of them :-S Glad you enjoyed the Papillotes -they're delicious although I never really understand what's written in them! It's all in French!
My gift from you is fantastic and I'll put up the pictures as soon as someone here shows me how to, lol!!! The hat is brilliant and with all the snow here at the moment, it's just what I needed,haha! I'm very happy to have the dulche de leche too - heard a lot about this, and have always wanted to try it. The sweets are disappearing fast - my children seem to like the orange ones and I'm fighting to get them to leave some for me. Thanks again Lucia, for being a fantastic exchange buddy and Happy New year to you in Argentina :-) |

I finally got my gift from Leticia! Better late than never! I love everything! I got some candy/sweets, an adorable purse, a post card with a picture of Leticia's hometown, and a magnet and little artwork with the flag or Argentina! I love it all (did I say that?).
What a great exchange. I'm sorry it didn't work out for everyone.

Holy cow! Inside the purse I found a Tango Argentina pin and a bracelet. I loved both of them, too. |

I think so, too. It's the perfect size for when you don't want to lug your big purse around. |

| No, Nikki, nothing yet :o(. Hope it didn't get lost in the mail. If it doesn't arrive next week I'll begin to worry :oS. When did you mail it? |

| I seem to recall during the cookie exchange that my parcel took forever to get to Alma, so Im sure it is still on it's way, slowly but surely. |

| Yes, Kristy, you're right, it took longer than my package to get to you. That's the main reason I'm not so worried. I'll wait until next week to see what happens :o). |

Well, today I got a message from the Post Office saying that I had a package to pick up :oD. So I went and...
TA-DA!
Here's the unopened parcel (my mom and I loved the wrapping!)
And then the beautiful pressie box. I so love it! :o)
And here are all the fantastic pressies I got from Nikki :oD! A Frandy CD (I'm listening to it right now), a ring and a pair of earrings, nail polish and make-up from Sephora, Godiva's chocolate covered almonds (can't wait to try those!) and a Christmas card :o).
I especially <3 this, it's so cool! With the peace sing!! :oD! And it fits perfectly!
I LOVE everthing, Nikki, THANK YOU, thank you so MUCH! And of course the wait was worth it ;o).
I love boardies exchanges! :oD
