I would like to share with you some of the goodies I received in the mail. My Secret Santa present came in the beginning of December. It came as a total surprise. I must tell you a funny story regarding my secret Santa package.
I have a very good friend by the name of Cheryl who lives in Oz. She often sends me packages throughout the year. She is such a generous and kind soul. So, in the beginning of December, the postman delivers a large envelop from Oz. I can always tell an Oz parcel due the colour and design of the package.
Dd says to me "you've got a package from Cheryl! Can I open it?" I remembered Cheryl writing that she would be sending a package and not to let dd look at it because her Christmas gifts will be in there. So, I told DD no, I'll take care of it.
I look at the front of the envelop, hum..... strange it's not Cheryl's usual signature. Okay, I figure she probably had someone else go to the post office for her.
So, I proceed to open the envelop and pull out this cute little pouch with a bag of Koala caramellos and some papers underneath! Oh, no photos of the koala caramello, they're all gone! Yum, yum, they were delicious!Hum.... by now I'm pretty puzzled! I can't seem to figure this one out!
I turn over to the papers to see what the heck Cheryl is up too!
So I glance at the picture sheet that was enclosed and say to myself "Gosh, Cheryl's garden is strange, so different from what she's been showing me. Hum...... okay read the letter for more clues.
Click it all falls into place. I started laughing!
The package was not from Cheryl but from my Secret Santa!In the fabric pouch was this cute little ornament!
I love Santa! Okay, so I'm repeating myself! lol
And..... this beautiful table runner!Gosh, I was so clueless! I never expected that my Secret Santa would be from Oz.
Thank you again Dale from Oz for the wonderful gifts. And thank you once more Donna for doing this!
Merry Christmas everyone!

Funny story. Isn't it interesting how sometimes our preconceived ideas keep us from "getting it" for a few minutes? Love the ornament, and would love to see the table runner up close.
enjoyed your story.......thanks for joining into the swap........

Oh, yes, I like that runner! Thanks for getting a closer shot. The colors are just wonderful. That will be a treat for years to come.
