I again forgot to put the card in with my name. Mine should be landing on Monday.

Omg i didnt even think if this, my box i sent out was so full that I dont think It would have fit. All I have to say is i had my boxed up and then I went to the post office and saw the most cutest red box with mickey mouse and pluto on it!!!! They were the cutest, so in the middle of the post office i unboxed my package and re boxed it with the mickey mouse box!!!!!! So after buying the box and the name tag and mailing costed me $15.56 to do that... lol

So when my person gets the mickey and pluto box, with no card it was from me. I really hope you like everything in it

My Mom recieved her package here is what she had to say (she was very excited as this was her first exchange):
"Christmas package from Alwena, Gaspode's mom
I received the best package in the world from Jolly Olde England. It had just the right mix of great items and a Tigger Christmas card, all of which made me smile. I received a snowman tealight candle holder, made of silver wire and crystals. It is absolutely wonderful, and there is no way my sad little description does it justice. I really love it! Also included were a Christmas tree boa pen (what lovely fun!), a pocket pack of Christmas tissues, a really cute felt snowwoman tree ornament with jingle bells for feet, a bag of yummy solid milk chocolate snowmen, a silver snowman cookie cutter ornament which should come in very handy for Christmas cookies, a small inflatable type snowman filled with bubble bath gel, and last but definitely not least, the most fabulous tasting thing called Mistletoe Kisses, which are delicious soft caramel covered in chocolate pure sin. This was a great package and got me really in the mood for Christmas. Thank you ever so much!

Ann"
I also wanted to say thank you, she is really happy! I signed her up as a surprise.

Received my package this afternoon. Karen, (Danauk), thank you for everything. Can't wait to put my tree up and display my new ornaments.

Karen sent me the following:

a Queens Guard Ornament
a Donald Ornament
(2) bell wrealth ornaments
a Disney 2007 Christmas ball ornament
and a advent candle

Loved everything, thanks again
Jean

Karen - my husband use to work for a company in England and really wanted to take the family but we couldn't work it out. While he was there he looked everywhere for a ornament from England, so thanks so much for sending the guard ornament. I love it.

You know those little pill shaped things you put in hot water and they melt and turn into sponges? I used to like them alot when I was little (ok I still do). These were holiday shaped ones. They were just an extra I threw in.

I'm so glad you liked everything. The Queens guard orniment was bought at the Tower of London when I went a few weeks ago. I was trying to find something that was obviously English! I hope you make it over the pond one day, I love visiting London and also just going for a walk in the English coutryside. We have some beautiful countryside and cities over here which are well worth a visit!

She sent:
a Mickey Mouse card
And then, the food and candy, etc...........
