    Deena and her family had our names and we had so much fun with our box. Babyboy got a cute book in a little bag he can carry and he loves it. The boys got candy and Sudoku books and pens. The girls got candy, pens with lip gloss filled hearts and flowers on top which they love! and the most adorable ceramic heart boxes. I got candy too and heart shaped cake pans that are so perfect. We are making little cakes in them for each of us. I am going to let the girls decorate them. I also got a pink card hand made by Deena's very artistic daughter. I hope I didn't forget anything! This was so much fun. Thanks for doing this Kris. Deena and family, you made our day! Thanks! Beth and family.

    Kris, you are welcome, I'm glad you all liked it (the camples soup doll is a magnet)

    My sweet pal was sixcloar!
    She was wonderfuly sweet to the kids and I. She put together a valentine cup of goodies for each of them, candy, lipglosses, nailpolish, pencils, necklace and bracelet for Eva, the same except instead of necklace and bracelet she sent Sammie a wiere heart basket. For the boys they had pencils, candy, toy vehicle, glow in the dark mouth gard, all were tied up in a celo bag tied with their name on them. (Donald wants a harley Davidson just like the one he got when he grows up).
    I got a red and white oven mit, magnetic note pad, and 2 post it note type pads, Cookie cutters and a coffee cup filled with sugar free candy and chocolate velvet coffee. I hope that I didn't forget anything We were so excited about everything that it flew out of the box so fast. And thank you for the cute valentine cards.

    Kris was our sweet pal! When I pm'd her she mentioned that she hadn't been sure what to do but she had hit the nail on the head. She gave me an angel that is so pretty and a pair of "Texax Snowmen" that were cute. Of course some sweets and also some different teas which were nice because I hate to waste a box to try different ones. The girls both got goody bags with a bear figurine and sweets. The real funny thing was that the girls goodies included a bag of cheeto sticks and a Kit Kat bar which are Joyce's two all time favorite junk treats! Thank you again, Kris for planning this and also for our wonderful box! Oh, she also sent some Texas trinkets-key chain, magnenets and postcards!

    Cailet was who sent our goody box. We had fun looking through it! We got 3 postcards, some Thankyou cards to give other people, A paper heart thing with Bible verses on it, some award sheets to give to the kids, a plastic heart with Reese's pieces in it (YUM!!! :D ), a big Milk Chocolate Apple for me (she wrote on the box it's in: "Here's an apple for an awesome teacher!" Awwww, how sweet!), and lots of Hershey's Kisses!

    Thankyou so much, we really enjoyed it! :D

    Oh Beth, we had postcards to send to you too, but we somehow missed getting them in the box. Sorry about that!

    My secret pal was Leslie - which I'm ASSUMING was Hoosier Mama since it came from IN. I love IN it's such a pretty state. My husband was born in South Bend!

    Oh she did so good! My kids are SOOOO Excited...we got plastic tumblers with hearts, mini playdough, sticker, Pez dispensers with refills, pencils (which we used for school today b/c it was, of course, Valentine's Day). And Chocolate....my kids favorite! My baby (the 2 year old) LOVES the cups, she feels like such a big girl. Even when I give her a sippy cup, she sits the sippy cup INSIDE the tumbler and holds the tumbler, it's so very cute! LOL. For me I got a collection of serious bath treats...whoo hoo!! and socks with hearts on them - my feet are ALWAYS cold, and I LOVE socks! LOL :D And a beautiful little heart dish, it is so pretty! We have it sitting out with our chocolates (which, yes, Leslie, I ate them! LOL :D They are now taking up permanent residence on my fanny).

    Hubby thought it was so cute that we got treats! Of course, he keeps sneaking the chocolates....I put an end to that last night! HA HA!!!

    THANK YOU!!!!

    Krista and her sweet family had our name. They did such a great job! My DH came in the door with the box and we all got so excited. It was so much fun. I got dish towels and pot holders that matched my kitchen great. Yummy chocolate kisses that have been enjoyed very much. We got necklaces, mini scrapbooks, and gift cards to Barnes and Nobles. The children got their favorite candy. Thank you so much for such fun things.
    Thanks Kris for being so great at organization to bring the Valentine Exchange together.
    I am so looking forward to packing another box.
    Thanks,
    Leah
