The Name-Draw Gift Exchange Was Great!

Dear Tyson --

I have received some beautiful necklaces in my time, but none is more precious to me than the one that you gave to me. Thank you, honey, I'll keep it always.

Thank you, Cody!

Kinda a funny way to "send" a thank you note... But I mean it! It was so fun to do the name draw this year and be thinking about the person you had. And to get phone calls from others for ideas...! It was a very Christmas-y thing to do, and I, for one, think it was a huge success! Furthermore, I make a motion to do it again next year.

So, thank so much, Cody, for the cool necklaces! You did a great job picking them out! I know I'll get lots of use out of them. It was good to see you at Starbucks the other day, too. Nice of you to drop in just to see me! ;)

Love you.

Love, Cass

Old and New Memories

I'm sure looking forward to seeing all of you on Saturday. I love this time of year! My mind fills with memories of past Christmases, and all of the fun we've had together. I couldn't be more grateful than I already am for all of you. I love you dearly, and each one is so very special.

We're all going to miss Peek-Eye deeply this Christmas. He loved the Season so much. When we were little, Rick, Becky, and I could hardly settle down on Christmas Eve. And we knew that we didn't dare get up in the morning until Granny and Grandpa drove into our driveway. They would pull in around 5:30 or 6:00, and they would sit in the truck until they saw any signs of stirring in the house. I always heard them when they came, because I don't think that I ever slept on Christmas Eve. I would go to the door and let them in, and then our Christmas could begin! I've never known a Christmas without my Grandpa, except this one. But, the memories I have will stay with me always.

Let's make some new memories, too, this year! Let the festivities begin!

Your loving aunt...

And they're off!

Your "secret Santa" notes have been mailed. Be watching for them in a mailbox near you! Just for clarification, they are sent as "to / from" gift tags. The giver's name will be in the FROM and the person you get to shop for this Christmas is the TO. Needing any clarification? Just let me know! Bye for now and happy shopping! Don't forget...it's absolutely allowed to ask close family members for ideas on what the receiver might need, want, or like. Have fun! HO HO HO!
