CLOSED: 5th annual 3 B-House Swap

Ummm...whoever is my buddy- please hold onto my box for awhile if it's not sent yet! I wasn't thinking too far ahead and I'm going to literally be out of the country from the 16th- 24th of this month :) I'll have my mail held, so if they have to hold that too- it's no biggie :)

And.. mine will be sent out tomorrow- totally forgot that yesterday and today I was working 13 hours and didn't get off work till 6pm after the post office closes :)

I've got to get myself organized LOL..

Mine was sent this morning!!!!!! Please enjoy!!! Kathy.

Where ya going Chris? Can we come too? :)

Kathy, that's the most peaceful picture-perfect scene. You should enter it in the next DG Photo Contest. It looks like a postcard, only better.

The tracking says my box is now very near its destination ... so I think someone will receive their box today. :)

Hope so.

WOW Kathy is that your pond??? NICE!!


My tracking says my buddies box is very close tooo. But I am thinking it will be tomorrow before it gets there. I ordered it so it will not have my name on it.
As soon as my buddy posts that they received it I will tell them it was from me....lol Seems to be happening on all my swaps lately.. Mystery boxes from the Elf...hee hee

:-D))) We do what we can.

yuppers....

I got my box, I got my box. It was waiting for me last night when we got back from Louisiana. I will take pictures later and post tonight. It is a wonderful, aromatic butterfly house. Thank you so much Fruity. I love it

Tina

^_^ Excited to see it, Tina.

Wonderful, Tina. I was a little concerned when tracking noted the package was left at your door yesterday.

You may already know what it looks like, Carole...lol

LK, I'm going to Cozumel and you can sure join me there! :) It's my first time of going to Mexico and I'm really excited- my son, grandson and DDIL are going too.

Mine was mailed out today.. I wrote on the outside of the box "Sorry, there are no cookies inside".. whoever is getting this box will understand when they see it LOL..

I will have a ton of pics to share when I get back..I'll be leaving the day after tomorrow and be back on the 24th- so just carry on without me, as I won't have internet there (not even taking a laptop!)

Have a good time Chris, have a margarita for me. OK, maybe two!

Hmmmm...Haven't gotten a buddy name yet

Oh My Goodness!! My Bad So sorry Stu. You have her name now ^_^

I can't believe I forgot, because I had said to Doug, what a lucky gal to get one of your birdhouses

My bat house arrived today, and it is beautiful. Tina_A thank you so much for the house, it's far nicer than I expected !!!!

LOL, thanks for the compliments on the above pix, I will have to tell my daughter as it's hers. Maybe it's time to head west for a fishing trip this summer and get some pix for myself. Or maybe ya'll can come visit Colorado, I'm here to tell ya, it sure is a pretty state!! Outside all day sanding cabitnet doors, gosh it was nice, mid 70's. Tulips are coming up, yeah.

Well, my box didn't arrive at its destination yesterday as they had predicted. But it's in that town now and should be delivered today.

^_^

OMG Carole (Cville_Gardener), you made me feel like I won a jackpot!! I just got my bat box and super goodies!

We are having a terrific thunderstorm right now and my power is flickering a bunch, so I will have to upload pics later (sorry).

I just wanted you to know that the package had arrived so you wouldn't worry, and that I was tickled BATTY with everything!!
Thank you so much!

Period? Is that a statement?

lol...I thought it was a speck of dust on my screen.

I'm really enjoying seeing all the different BBB houses flying in.

Is that sneaky elf around???? lol!

Yeah, sprinkling fairy dust...lol

Would I be guesing correctly if I guessed her last name begins with the letter M?????

Nope,, I beez named Shotts,,,,, however I did be the sneaky Elf who sent you your box,,,,

Lol!! Are you serious?

Yah, and I was attemping sneaky in return. WOW!!! What did I do to deserve such a great gift?

I can't wait to see what our Elfie sent you, Kathy!

nope,,,,,, it be from me,

I got four presents, 2 bluebird houses and 2 bathouses. Such a great surprise!!! I hit the jackpot......in fact my neighbor asked me if I wanted to go to the casino tomorrow, lol, maybe I should. I wanna thankyou soooo much. I stopped at the puter store this afternoon and picked up a new thingy mabob for downloading pix. I haven't figured it out yet, I'm getting some help this weekend and will post. Yeah!!!! Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou!!!

Kathy,, it really was no big deal,, I got them for a really great price. I even pretty much stayed in the $20.00 limit plus shipping. I was excited to find both bird and bat houses for you. He makes butterfly houses too!!

They are wonderful you sneaky little girl.

Thinking I will order some for me too. Fruity says you paint?? I figured you could decorate them yourself if you wanted to.



Elfie doing the happy dance in her corner!!!! Plus I need to clean it up for the next swap!!!!!!!

Oh how cute!!! I love watercolor painting, I just hope I can get to do some this summer with my grandaughters, I'm attempting to teach them. Now I must admit I need a pattern cuz I'm not that great at drawing yet.

I have to admit,, I did not paint that,, but it is one of my favorite pictures of an Elf.... I teach my Goober to garden,, she loves to garden!!

She is so pretty, how old 10ish? My g girls are 10 and 111/2. Such a great age. Here's a pix of a christmas present to my daughter and her family. Yup, I used a pattern.
