First I must apologize to sbmly for not posting earlier today (or last night). We get our mail at one of those banks of locked boxes and Sandy brought it home last night - I hadn't checked since Sat.

The foals made it fine - they are 'living' in the middle of my Trail of the Painted Ponies on the entertainment center. you are one good 'packer'. One of the boot bracelets has been 'cut down' (one of the 'drapes' is now gone) so I can wear it as an ankle bracelet (love them) the other is staying long for boot wear. Some things have gone on to others already - The gardening hat wa the first to go - the minute I saw it I knew who it was for - there is an older (yes even older than me LOL) lady who gardens and loves hats so I gave it to her. The girl next door (they are having hard times) got the beautiful sequin bag with the bead rings and chains - her 5 yr old brother got the bubbles (they got the Old Maids). Hope you don't mind that some have already gone somewhere else - but they di go to someone who will use them. There is too much in the box for me to mention at this time - but everything will find a place/use. (Dancing flower is driving Hubby nuttier than he already is LOL)

Thank you!

Susan

Forgot to mention the beverages - I like both but will be saved til the right time.

    I'm so glad the package arrived intact.
    We get our mail at the PO, hubby picks it up on his way to work so I usually see it after 11PM.

    I do not mind at all that some things were sent on there way. As I went through the house (quickly) I gathered up the first things I saw. If I had a few months, a van might have pulled up to your house. It is so hard to know what might be the 'right thing' although I did imagine you & hubby on the porch playing Old Maid, blowing bubbles & drinking wine while you were wearing the sunhat!

    This was fun and I would do it again. Thank you for the idea!
