Carol!!!!  You sneaky sneaky sneak sneak!!!!!
Tormented all this time with emails about this and that and me needing to REALLY buy a brain for Christmas so I can learn to figure things out just a wee bit better!!!!!!!!!! 
 Oh my GOSH ... did you think my day would be complete without a visit from Mr Fed ex?  WOW!   Talk about dashtastic awesomeness!!!
I literally squealed when I opened up the box and saw what was within.
Thank you so much they are just fantastic and I will be wearing them to my parents house tonight to show off.  Photos on the feeties come later.  :)

Now onto the Box from yesterdays postie..  Oh my!!
Well ... part of the box still has wrapped goodie love within as part of it is for my munchkins Birthdays as well.   Zoe is at the end of this month and Emma's is the end of next month.  Oh the torture.  Hehe!!

Sadly I am a dingus and didn't think to snap a photo of the box with it's entire contents before unwrapping my portion of the goodness within.  But I have after photos! YAY

The Calligraphy book and pen set came today with a Happy Birthday song from the UPS man (he knows me rather well hehe) but it is from the same wonderful friend so I put it in for the big photo.  ;)    There are 6 little Christmas outfits there and I am going to have to get off my butt and work hard to get an awesome picture for my Christmas cards next year.

To me these were a special part of the gifty that needed their own photo.  They belonged to her father and are very nice pots, not wanting to just get rid of them as she didn't need them she offered them to me, heck yes please?  NOTHING beats A. awesome cookware and B. something that was once someone else's.  I felt honored to be given them.  I will use the heck out of them too since I love to cook.

om nom noms!   Dark chocolate covered ginger bread with apricot centers.  Mmmm I love German anything!!

Same only without the centers.  Just covered chocolate cakie goodness! ;)

But I have to say ... and I mean this with every bit of my heart..  the best part of the box was a second card, with an invitation and an explanation of this last photo.   You see .. this special friend of mine.. she knows who she is too ...  she was married before we met .. but to me the envelope was the most special. It contained her wedding invitation and then there was a beautiful gift along with it..  it was the ladies table gift.  "Now you have one too!" her note said.  I felt like I was transported to her special day and a special part of it somehow!!!   I love you dearly my friend.  you know how to make me feel amazingly special without hardly trying.  *snifs*
It's so much prettier than my photo taking skills could ever achieve to capture. ;)
