I am waiting to open her card on Christmas day, but I could not wait to open her presents.. I was too excited!! Her and her boyfriend Cody actually gave Mike and I a present too, which was SO completely thoughtful... here is the ornament that has our names on it XOXO It is so amazing and my favorite ornament on my tree.
Sara also got me these adorable smelly markers!! I am SO excited to use these because honestly, I live for the scented stamp pads and smelly stickers.. my kids love them too. So perfect and I will be using these so much!! All different scents like cherry, peppermint, strawberry, etc.
And my lady Heather got one of the most unique and wonderful presents I have ever gotten in my life... it is called a "Diamond Candle" (as seen on tv) and you light a soy candle, and inside the wax is a ring worth anywhere between $10 to $5,000. Most of the rings are worth $10, but what an extremely exciting and beautiful gift!! It is lit as we speak.. if you would like more details on this fabulous gift go to www.diamondcandles.com it talks about the prices, scents, FAQ like ring sizes and quality. Amazing and any one would be lucky to receive one of these as a gift!
My presents for my kids... goodie bags filled with erasers, candy, pencils, bouncy balls, and more, and these shirts with their pictures on them. Vistaprint groupon, oh yeah!
I will leave you with this.... this picture below and tons more were the many gifts I was able to get my Adopt a Family. Walter and Kathy will have the most beautiful Christmas, thanks to you. I went yesterday with a full car load of food, presents and clothing for my two lovely angels - Kathy, a single mom fighting breast cancer with little to no money, and Walter, a 16 year old boy with autism who wants more than ever to get presents this Christmas. Kathy's face was priceless bringing in the boxes and boxes of wrapped goodies. XOXO I cannot tell you what this means to me, and their family. Thank you SO much for all your help.. no donation is ever too small, and it really made a huge difference. My heart is full from this and it reminds me that kindness to others, and helping out people that need happiness in their lives, is EVERYTHING. It has made my Christmas <3 p="p">
I wish you all a happy holiday... I will be blogging again soon before Christmas!!
XOXO
