Secret Santa!

I participated in Kori's Secret Santa Swap and my gift arrived today! It was so exciting to receive a package in the mail--and it was really a good one!

My gift was from Marla of Stolen Bon Bons (I am using her pic because it turned out better than mine!):

Here' what I got:

--A fun, pink, sparkly stocking! This is perfect because I don't have my own--plus I love pink and sparkles!

--A very cute Santa that also a container--and it was filled with candy canes! This is so cool because I can always put him on display filled with different candies--love it!

--A really nice and big coffee cup and saucer plus a delicious-looking coffee mix plus a really cute little spoon. The timing on this one is perfect because Don recently broke one of my mugs. I know this will be a new favorite!

--Book: The Shack. I hadn't heard of this, but I read the back cover and it looks excellent. I can't wait to read it!

--A really neat fragrance contraption that you plug into the wall--in vanilla-pumpkin scent!! I love stuff like this and can't wait to use it.

--And--I saved the best for last--super cool pajamas from Old Navy in my favorite color (hot pink)!! I LOVE pajamas and these look so soft and comfortable.

THANK YOU Marla for the wonderful gift--I appreciate it so much. And thank you to Kori for orchestrating the swap--I know it wasn't easy and you did a terrific job!
