ARMY AND SLAMMIE's Crazy Christmas Advent Package Train

[Armygirl76]

Yes, it did indeed! I took a picture of everything out of the box, and again after I tried to put it back in....you must have played tetris for hrs lol! And there is still gifts on the way for me. Can we leave feedback for our buddy's now? lol. I feel so special and can't wait to start opening everything! I will post the pics after DS soccer practice.

you can leave FB whenever you would like

[scbpooh]

Should we be leaving fb now when we receive or Dec 25????

Well technically it will be Sunday, but as soon as it is midnight I can't wait any longer

Lol those critters are my 16 purple pincher hermit crabs. Here is a better picture of one, his name is creepy because he creeps the kids out when he crawls up their hair off their shoulder :D lol

that would creep me out too but I'm glad to hear it wasn't any form of reptile *shudders*

My buddy should get her package today!! :D

I think I'm your buddy!
i received my package today, I opened the outer pkging and did it so fast that I barely read the name or where it was from. I took everything out and put it up high on the rail around the rec room, so that dd can't get into it like she did for the Christmas in July pkg. train!
anyways, everything looks fantastic! I think I'm going to be spoiled! Thanks sooo much!

OMG cowgirl that is disgusting!!! EWWWWWWWW! I have the willies now.

I've come to the conclusion that I need to hire elves because I am just never going to find a day to rest otherwise. A short update on my crazy ass month..I promoted to Leader with Epicure on Halloween day which is HUGE and I've been working for it full tilt for the last 6 months but I've been so busy since then I haven't even had time to enjoy it. I've done 3 Epicure parties a week this month, a mega bake show with my goodies and some crazy family drama to put the icing on it. I thought this week would be quite so I could rest but I've had the boy home quite sick for two days. He's at the walk in now with DH, I'm quite sure it's strep again (he gets it about 4 times a winter ever since he finished chemo ) He's also been taking really bad anxiety attacks for the last few days. So needless to say I am not getting the rest I was so dearly hoping for and I'm totally exhausted Any volunteer elves wanna come rescue me?? Sorry for the long rant, guess I needed to to someone!

So who's left to get their packages?

Curious to see if my package has arrived to buddies yet?

My kids are getting antsy to open stuff, and I had to explain that there were not 125 presents there (or 25 each!!). Once I explained how it worked, one asked if we were the family with the most kids on the train, and I said that yes we were, they thought about it for a minute, and remarked that it wasn't fair for the person who got all of them, as it must be confusing buying for so many!

They are currently on my sideboard, waiting for my tree to go up next week after we cut it down. I am looking forward to getting them under the tree. I had them in order, but my 4 year old rearranged them, a few times! Until the 1st, I give up! I re-order them then!

My kids r so excited it will be hard to keep them from opening ontill dec 1

[kellyanna_99]

That's me ! So glad it got there! My wrapping is not the best (my mom wraps all my presents for me)

Glad the kids are excited, I hope everything is okay ! I have treats for the kids, but I mixed up the treats for kyle and molly (?, the one who likes aeros), so hope that isn't an issue!

My boxes are in the closet, hidden from kiddo who opened a few too many all at once in July. I told him if he opens more than he's supposed to on any day Santa won't bring him anything lol. We'll see how that goes.

kellyanna - I hope your kids aren't disappointed! I tried to send some things that everyone could enjoy. Sorry, not 125 gifts lol.

slambert - hope kiddo feels better soon, and can deal with the anxiety. It is perhaps linked to his virus? I know when I am sick it amplifies everything else.

Happy to see so many packages arriving! I can't wait until Sunday. Woo hoo presents!

Packages all look fantastic! I can't believe the 1st is Sunday - not that I'm complaining bc we get to start opening presents!!

I am still trying to shake this nasty flu / cold thing! I was off work Thursday and then Monday too - I think I'm on the road to recovery *fingers crossed*

We are heading to the US tomorrow just for the day! I'm super excited to load up on junk food and random treats! I found a grocery store that has chicken boobs on for $1.99/lb has anyone had experience going down for the day and bringing back "real" groceries? DH is terrified that we will stock up on meat and get it confiscated at the border!

They'll be fine. Not sure where they got that idea, as they certainly don't get that many from me! Can you imagine? I thought last Christmas was INSANE. I hit way too many bargains, wrapped socks/clothes, had a few gifts from people at church for them and family out of town, and they had 15 or 16 presents each under the tree, in addition to stockings! It was nuts! My plan is 8-10 each this year!
