TT Christmas ornament exchange

“I don't have a camera.....LOL........”

“Your beautiful ornament arrived today and was it worth the wait! I've never seen anything like it! It's a blown glass pineapple and absolutely gorgeous! I will try and take a picture of it tomorrow..thank you SO MUCH!

And Sass, what a great idea! We all owe you a huge hug (read all about it..Sass smothered by group hug!) for having the idea and taking the time to arrange it...it really helped start the Christmas spirit rolling for me...”

“:) Mataharihiker! Glad you like it!”

“ChuckD....GeorgeW ain't got here yet....sigh”

“Speaking of cool ornaments, I found one yesterday I will NOT trade! It's a blown glass rally car ornament! I love rally racing, and this is the coolest! Laurel calls it "Mommy's Car!" I wish!”

“My son loves pickles......eats em by the tons.......so I got him a pickle ornament this year!~!!!!!”

“Pink,

Yours arrive yet?”

“arrived safely. I should have sent it fed ex or something...dang usps...governmental organizations just don't work as efficiently as private enterprise.”

“Divinity, the pickle ornament is a german or dutch, or someplace european, tradition. First child to find the pickle on the tree on Christmas morning gets and extra gift.”

“Sass......yes...I read that on the box!!!!!!

I am sad...no word from DeoreDX :(.....I should have sent it UPS......

(Yells) HEY DEOREDX...if ya don't get it soon ....let me know....I have another!!!!
(I purchased 2)”

“Hey Wounded Knee!

I got your ornament today-- Very cool! (and PINK!) :-) I'll see if I can get a photo of it and post it soon... :-)

Thanks for the fleece socks-- they might be a little large (I wear a size 8 women's--the socks are for a Large (9-1/2 to 11 Women's) but they look comfy none-the-less! :-)

I haven't opened them yet, but, when I do, I will try wearing them over other socks to keep my feet nice and comfy this winter!”

“I still ain't got one! BooooooooHooooooo!”

“(tickles Spam).......watch the mail later in the week........I have something special for you!!!!”

“thank you so very merry much thinkbubble. I got the ornament on Thrusday. The Moose was sooo cute and the candy was so sweet.
you made me smile
:)”

“I got my ornament stickmon! Thanks! Sorry I've been gone to my parents for the past weeks and they don't have a computer!!! It was a beautiful rock!”

“Hey did Thinkbubelz get his ornament yet? I sent it priority last week, but I hear the mail got backed up big time this year because of the weather? Hope you get it soon.”

“My Christmas tree ornament pictures..

“Indiana--
maybe Thinkbubelz will get it today-- mail hasn't come yet... :-)”

“anything yet? :(
I haven't got mail since Christmas. Maybe its cause they can't get to my mailbox with all the snow? :)”

“Anyone wanna see a picture of my ornament?”

“How about no!....you crazy dutch bastard!”

“Never got mine :(”

“I'm there with ya, havenmore. Although I hold out hope for a New Year's edition. I know my person said she sent it, but it went out late, right before Christmas.”

“Bearmagnet's Dutch?


Me too (Friesland)”

“Not that I know but my maternal side does have just about everything so maybe.”

“you mutt”

“Hey, I am dutch too! Wifes a Jew.

Kids will be fun”

“so am I.
father from Eindhoven.”

“Go wooden shoes!”

“I have a pair!

Should we try our out hiking the next time we go out Ruby?”

“Well..........kind of a mutt. I would say 50% Sicilian, 40-45% UK, and then a big mix because moms family came over through Quebec in the 1700's.

Therefore, along with the Sicilian, I have a very strong genetic disposition for Hot Monkey Love regardless of ethnicity. And can prove it. :D”

“I used to have my fathers wooden shoes from when he was a boy.

still wish I did

we sent our daughter to visit my family in Holland for her 16th birthday. she fell in love with Holland and wants to go back soon.”

“We have no wooden shoes in my family. I used to have the woman's traditional head piece (can't remember what it's called). As a young girl, I wore it and the whole taraditional dress when I performed with some other kids at the Museum of Science and Industry in some Dutch Christmas production. I wonder what ever happened to that.

Hot Monkey Love? Primal urges are good! LMAO”

“Indiana--

Sorry, we've been insanely busy this past week...
Thinkbubelz got your little ornament-- poor guy got a little busted in his arm, but it's nothing a little epoxy and a tiny bit of paint won't fix! ;-)
(at first,we thought his left arm was supposed to be bent, then we realized it had gotten bent during his trip to our mail box...)

He also wanted to thank you for the Emergen-C drink mix! :-)

Tomorrow, we may actually have a moment of time to post pictures of our goodies for all to see!”

“Spam.......just a little note to say Merry Christmas....and look in the mail in the next few days!!!...hugs....”

“Coolies!!!!!”

“Cooties?! Eew!”

“No Dude.....COOLIES!!!!”

“I'm glad you got it. It is from Big Bend NP, from the Marufa Vega Trail. there is a section about the length of half a football field that is made of that rock. It was really neat. Somehow, a few peices fell into my pack when I wasn't looking. I hope you enjoy it for many years to come.”

“Anyone want to do the TT ornament exchange again?

For those who aren't familiar with the exchange it works like so:
Email me your name (and TT name). December 1st I'll throw all the names in a hat (a Santa hat of course) and draw one for each TTer. Then I'll post a list of who got who, email a list to everyone and you all get to choose, buy, make, trashpick, cobble, or regive the Christmas tree ornament of your choice to the person who you got. You will have to contact each other, via email for addresses.

DO NOT SIGN UP IF YOU DON'T PLAN ON FOLLOWING THROUGH! Last year everyone got an ornament, I believe.

I recently changed my email address (it's in my profile), it's now joymharvey@yahoo .com so don't use the old one from last year.

“count me in....”

“Me too! Me too!”

“I am soooo in!”

“I didnt do it last year for some reason, but I'm in this year!”

“Cool!

But seriously, PLEASE, you gotta email me. I don't have anyone's addy in my new address book and it'll be alittle bit of work for you guys to email me or ALOT of work for me to figure out everyone's email and get them on a list, etc. Much easier to simply click "add to address book".

“I'm in! In a few years maybe my whole tree will be filled with TT ornaments!”

“In a few yrs maybe I will have enough ornaments to make it worth while to get a tree”

““I picked up my ornament Yesterday... now I gotta get it in the mail. You'll probably see it by Friday spam :D”

So instead of e-mailing me when he never got the ornament I have to wait until April when Ewker mentions it at BP.com to find out? The man had my e-mail address. Man must have no balls if he can't e-mail me directly and Ewker has very little class to butt in where he doesn't have all the facts.”

“I am in, just sent you an e-mail!

Thanks!”
