I Got Christmas Presents!

A few weeks ago I signed up for my first blogger swap. I have done scrapping swaps before, but this was a different experience. This was Christmas in July! First let me say, that the swap hostess Angie's Spot did an outstanding job organizing this goodie exchange. She is hosting another swap in November with another fun theme, so go subscribe to her blog to receive the post to sign-up.

I had the best time getting to know my swap buddy Six Flower Mom. We hit it off right away and sent each other several five-paragraph emails. On Wednesday morning there was a package on my porch decorated with Christmas stickers. Inside was individually wrapped items that I couldn't wait to tear open. Be forewarned that my buddy completely spoiled me! Try not to be jealous as you read the list of presents she sent me:

• Scrapbooking supplies (a scrapper can never have too many)
  
• Burt's Bees chapstick and a packet of herbal sitz bath (will come in handy before and after labor)
• A Target reusable bag (fits nicely in my purse so I'll never forget to take it when I go shopping like a good environmental cheerleader should)
• Stuff for baby (natural baby wash, a handmade Scrubby, an organic toy, and a maple teething ring made in VT)
• Serendipity on DVD (to add to my John Cusack movie collection)
• A journal and writing pens (the journal cover has butterflies, my favorite animal in nature)
• Yummies (herbal teas bags and Vermont Maple candy-I had to remember not to eat all of these before I took the picture)
• BOOKS!!! (Motherhood Rising, The Continuum Concept, The New Age Herbalist, Love You Forever. Now I have to decide which one to read first)
  

I can't thank her enough for all the cool stuff! This was a blast and can't wait to do it again!
