Thank you again SP!

A huge thank you to my wonderful secret pal! Once again a parcel of gorgeous clothes and a card with lovely thoughts and wishes (and the cutest socks ever!) arrived in our letter box yesterday. You know, each month I tell myself I will keep it till my kids come home from school, so they can help me open it (as they are super excited about everything to do with their baby sister), but once again I just couldn't wait! It was also really thoughtful of you to find out that we don't really do Halloween in Australia, and modify the theme for the month. I feel double excitement when my parcel arrives, not only something really cool for our mei mei, but also it marks another month closer to her - and she is gathering such a cute wardrobe, she'd better hurry up and come and enjoy it! I hope you enjoyed your Halloween, and had lots of scary critters knocking on your door, I imagine you would have the best treats in all the neighbourhood! Thank you once again,

Love Jannett

Thanks to my Secret Pal!

Hi Secret Pal! Thank you so much for your great gifts that arrived yesterday just in time for Halloween! I love the pumpkin stuffed toy that makes the spooky sound. The bib is adorable! I think this is my first bib! I also love the set of 3 puzzles! I LOVE puzzles myself and am currently working on a Disney Pooh 1000 piece puzzle, maybe for the nursery if I ever finish it. Seeing your puzzles reminded me that I'll get to do puzzles with Raven once she is here! That's a great feeling! The journal is great too! Can't wait to start writing in it! Oh and the little critter gave me a good little jump for Halloween!!!! I love everything. Thank you so much!!

Thank you, Secret Pal!!!

My secret pal struck again!!!!! Don't you just love how the box always seems to come at a time in your life that you need a pick-me-up????

My secret pal has me really wondering who she/he is and where she/he lives. Every box has a post card from some other part of the country or world. It's funny....I almost don't want to know where she/he is from because it would spoil the game.

She/He sent a really neat Halloween music box along with awesome smelling pumpkin candles and I psychedelic lamp that makes colorful waves and motions. My daughter is going to love it!!

Thanks again...your surprises always make my month.

Thank you so much!!!!!

I just wanted to say thank you to our secret pal. I am sorry that I haven't posted, but I did recieve my secret pal gift this month. Our internet service has been giving us so many problems lately. We have satellite service and when the wind blows it goes down.

We love the gifts for our little one, the slippers are so cute. Thank you so much!!!!

To My WONDERFUL Secret Pal,

Dearest Secret Pal,

This past week has been so very hectic that I was unable to post until tonight. As you know, we live in Key West, FL and if KW is famous for one thing, it is Fantasy Fest. We are so wore out from Fantasy Fest parades, marches, races, etc., that every night I have been crashing in front of the TV. Anyhoo, I wanted to THANK YOU SO MUCH for the wonderful goodies we received in the mail last week. The "King of the Grill" apron was a big hit with David. Everything else was wonderful too. The little Halloween pin you sent me went perfect with my costume and I wore it for the Fantasy Fest activities. The Halloween decoration was great and goes perfect on our door. Olivia's "My First Halloween" bib is TOO precious. I can't wait to see her in it. Also, the Disney pillow is fabulous. I love the Aristocats (as if you can't tell from all of my cats!!). The baby socks were great too as I had not yet purchased a single pair of socks - yours are the first!!!

You are a great secret pal. I so look forward to receiving and opening your packages. Sometime in the next few days, I will post the pictures of the gifts you sent me along with a post on my adoption website for all my friends and family to see. Please check it out at www.youbelong.net/monroe in the next few days.

You are GREAT Secret Pal !!! You are the BEST !!

Thank you from Laura and Jordan Harris

Thank you Secret Pal!  Jordan and I were so excited today to receive your package. The bibs and t-shirts are awesome (I can't wait until someone calls me "mommy") and the halloween hat, shirt, and socks are TOO adorable. We also LOVE the book you sent as well. Two of our three furry children are kitties so the book really tickled us! Thank you for such a wonderful package. We were thrilled to receive it! Happy Fall! 

Thank you from The Beckering Tribe

A big thank you to our Secret Pal. What fun Halloween goodies! Socks, bib, cookie cutters, photo holder, the most adorable lady bug sandels EVER and even some hot cocoa and bubble bath for me! Wow.......thank you soooooo much!

Fondly,

Stefanie Beckering

Thank you Secret Pal

It was so great to come home Friday to a lovely decorated box on my doorstep. I had a long week so the timing was perfect. I loved everything. The sweatshirt is adorable and I love the books. My son was most excited about the cookies. I hope to use the cookie cutters this week.

By the way my husband is from Seattle so coffee is big at our house too. Even my son developed a love of cappuccino when he visited his grandpa this spring. The granola bars disappeared before I could even try one. I'm told they were quite good.

Thanks so much for everything.

Thanks Secret Pal!

Thank you so much for the Halloween treats! The PJs are adorable as is the witch pony tail holder! Emily loved her treat bag, especially the lip balm. This is the first year Emily understands the holidays, so it was really fun for her to open the box with me and see all of the Halloween goodies.

Yes, we hope to be trick or treating with Emily and her sibling soon! Thanks for making the wait a little more endurable!

Fall Fun!

Thank you Secret pal for all the Halloween treasures! The t-shirts, socks and all the little hats are too cute. I bought many seasonal bibs for our daughter Kristen, so the pumpkin bib is our first for our new little someone! The little rattle to attach to stroller/car seat will get much use. Two years later, Kristen still has one attached to her stroller.

Thank you for all the thoughtful gifts!

Secret Pal Fall Fun

Dear Secret Pal,
Thank you for the fall goodies...the pumpkin t-shirt and socks are so cute!!! I want to just run out and find a baby to dress up!

Sofia loves the mini-markers and drawing pad. The small size is perfect for her little hands. She thinks the stuffed pony looks just like the one she rode last night at the carnival.

Thanks, too, for the pumpkin spice lotions and potions....lip balm, lotions, spray....yummy!

Happy Halloween!
Mary

Thank You Secret Pal!

Thank You Secret Pal for the super soft baby blanket, the darling board book, and the cute bib! It has been fun looking forward to our little packages. Its hard to believe we have already made it through 6 months. Thanks to your gifts it makes it quite a bit easier to wait each month.

We will try to post quickly when we receive our precious package each month!

Where in Bath Heaven !!

Thank you so much Secret Pal we got your package yesterday and I just LOVE the bath toys. I wanted to just put everything straight in the bath all ready for them but we thought we might just wiat a litte while before we do that. The ladybug brush and comb were just presious and I love all the bright colours and the bath garden, watering can, squity toys, bath storage net with the adorable lady bugs. Everything is just so wonderful. Thanks so much for making our day:)

To Our Wonderful Secret Pal

Just wanted to say THANK YOU to our Secret Pal. We received the package on Tuesday, 10/23/07, what a great surprise to come home to. We love the book "Clifford's First Halloween". We adore the socks, notepad, card, hot cocoa, and door decoration. Our newphews are going to enjoy the candy. Thank you again.

Overdue Thank You

To my wonderful secret pals, thank you for the great gifts. The books are darling and I love the bath confetti, so fun! I hear all the time about squeaky shoes from families who have already traveled to China but I now have squeaky mittens! How 'bout that? I never knew they existed. They are adorable thank you.

Karin & Steven

Thank you Secret Pal!

Thank you so much Secret Pal for the wonderful gifts! The T-shirt was so cute! I love the saying "Lock up your sons". The color is beautiful. The 3 Disney Fairies books are just great and I am sure Gabby will want to read them also. I love the handmade card with all the ladybugs. Your theme was very special and wonderful. We tend to down play Halloween around here anyway. It's not my favorite holiday. Now Christmas on the other hand we love!

Your Packages always brighten up my day! It is like receiving a ray of sunshine (I needed it today as it is gloomy and rainy).It is so nice to be thought of. I look forward to the next surprise and can't wait to see who you are at the end of 1 year.

Hugs,
Jody

Thanks Secret Pal!!

We got a special Halloween treat from our Secret Pal. Thank you for remembering Natalie! She loves the bear. The orange pumpkin candies are almost gone too. Love the little photo album for Sophie. You are the best Secret Pal. Happy Halloween to you!
