Jezebel's Surprise Advent Package Train

[pumpkin9211]

Homemade soaps are a yes for me... but nothing flower scented. Or musk. I can't have musk on my body... you know how some smells change when applied to a different people? Well, I put on musk and smell like a big pair of dirty feet. Soooo not pretty. LOL!

[shawlightning]

For my buddy on the mini train - any sensitivities to soap / body products? I was going to attempt beginner soapmaking this weekend!

nope i don't think we have any at all.

Day 6 is a new red shirt for my son, we open our gifts 6:30am before off to school and work. He took his shirt off and put on new one ALREADY, I will try and remember to get it for pic of days 6-10 I am absolutely loving everything!

Happy Birthday Ladies!

glad that you are enjoying everything. so happy your son liked the shirt. he did exactly what mine would have done, putting it on right away......LOL

No sensitivities to soaps or smells here but we prefer fruity scents... No pine or flowery

Ladies...

Jez did receive one FANTASTIC package from the lovely Mrs. Coyote

She sent more than 1 package out.

And due to juliep's health issues... her package never was mailed to Jez.

But trust me, Jez will be well taken care of

Handmade soaps are probably a no here. I am super sensitive to so many things it would be hard to give you a list Sorry. I am still battling a rash all over due to hubby "trying another laundry soap because a personcant be allergic"....

[crazycoupongirl]

OMG i didn't even catch on.. Jeze.. i had no idea.. man that sucks. So wonderful that another SC'er stepped up.. wow din't think this would bother me this much.. im quite upset and in tears.. you did NOT deserve this Jeze.. thankfully there are still some left around that care.

You deserve it Jez. It was unfortunate that you were the person who didn't receive your package from juliep..... IF it was any of us, you would be the first person to say "I'll send another package". I think tomorrow will be an even better day!

ho hoho.. did you use your crutch to get them.. ??

nope klepto to the rescue ...it was in the hall it was a matter of getting it to the living room

Homemade soaps are a yes for me... but nothing flower scented. Or musk. I can't have musk on my body... you know how some smells change when applied to a different people? Well, I put on musk and smell like a big pair of dirty feet. Soooo not pretty. LOL!

hmmm we can't have a rotten smelling Pumpkin I also can't have any soaps or my skin will be super sore

what a sweetie !!!


thanks for all the kind words I did recieve an awesome gift from Coyote !!!

it just worked out with ppl hopping off or switching trains after the buddies were already sent out that their were ppl who didn't have buddies so my way of fixing it was to send to more than 1 person ...and we had 2 children without buddies (2 kids had been removed ) so missbee graciously offered to cover 1 child and I took care of the other child

It wasn't necessary for you ppl to send me gifts ....all your posts made me cry ...that goes back to what I mentioned before ...The Advent train is special and it creates friends....I am thankful for the amount of friends I have here on SC and the new ones I have made in this thread

[Jezebel]

here is a pic of a caramilk cake I made for one of GP's friends who is having surgery....so helping GP help her friend

White Cake with a light layer of icing
then a complete layer of caramild bars
then topped with vanilla Icing

dlee Canadian tire has them on this weekend for $5.99 last page(or second to last page) trying to find it on their site

Thanks for the tip! I'll try to make it out there this weekend!

You made those yourself?!
Those are beautiful! Great Job!

Thank you!!

I received this in the mail today! I dont know what to say. To whoever is my secret Santa thank you soooo much!

awesome!

Ugh! I had gone through the 10+ pages and multi quoted a bunch of posts - now they are gone! boo! oh well!

For the stockings - can you buy a 'family set' and then get them embroidered? I think Stitch-It would do it...not sure of the price and hopefully you have one there.....they used to be in the malls 'back in the day' lol

Shawshank - I didn't know if the person that got the 1/2 lb Reese would be willing to share, so I bought the minis for sharing

dlee - that 52 weeks of crafts challenge sounds awesome! Is it on Pinterest? Do they suggest crafts for you to do? I'm intrigued lol and your penguin cards are awesome!!

Day 5 I got caramel mug cakes .....yummy!!!!

Day 6 Nature Valley Fruit & Nut bars....awesome since we are low on lunch snacks!

Thanks so much shawshank!!!

Happy Birthdays to NikkiB & xox2010! Hope you both had amazing days!!!

For my buddy on the mini train - any sensitivities to soap / body products? I was going to attempt beginner soapmaking this weekend!

Thanks!!!

Baby...crying...2 hrs straight!!! Ahhh! So unusual for her!

Dlee - your cards look fantastic! So cleanly executed! (I'm a little fanatical on details...takes me FOREVER to get a scrapbook page done!)

K8 - you'll have to let us know how the hair wrap works! I'm intrigued! I've actually considered using a sham-wow on my hair when I get ou of the shower!

I love things cleanly executed too. =) especially cards and scrapbooks. but I like to collage once in a while too. organized collaging. haha.

beautiful!

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I worked really hard on my cards this year so I'm super happy about them. yay!

[dlee]

Jezz - I didn't know about your package...I must've missed it all in the shuffle. I hope you know that you will be rewarded somehow somewhere and sometime for your kindness and generosity and goodness. thank you for all your hard work!!

not sure what I'm going to be doing this year yet. Last year I did a photo project and took a photo a day. then the three years before that I chose a photo of the week. this year I want to do something a bit more ambitious but not sure what yet!

ideas? =)

[slambert]

Day 7 for me was some MR Clean erasers (well needed at my daycare..LOL) and for Trent a beautiful memo pad with a pen. I tried to convince him we had them mixed up and that the erasers were meant for him since he's so messy but he isn't buying it..LOL Thank you Melissa and Jezebel.

Jezebel I wish I had known you did not get your second package, I would have been more than willing to help out in replacing it. I'm glad you've been taken care of

[Briwantstosave]

Ok lads and lasses- I am here to reveal that K8 rocks. I mean ROCKS!!! Thank you so much!

Day 6 was another FPC for garnier lotion!-awesome sauce!!
Day 7 was a new springform pan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I desperately needed one of these to make my pumpkinpie cheesecake and i think mine got lost in the move.

So I think K8 is a mind reader. And just plain AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

here are my week 1 gifts





K8 rocks!!! Thank you so very very much!

[CouponLadybird]

I'm so glad your package arrived safe & sound Jez!

You deserve it!! I was so sad to hear you missed getting a package, and had to help somehow.

As pumpkin said in an earlier post -you will be taken care of and today will be another great day!
