How exciting! It hasn’t gotten to my PO box yet but I’ll check again tomorrow. Thank you!
Who else has received presents and opened them already? Report on your gifts! I love reading what people received! It’s amazing how creative and sentimental the COTH elves can be. Please share!

This. And I am surprised there are not any photos of fun stuff yet.

It has been fun playing Secret Santa. Just mailed my box to my giiftee yesterday. There’s one particular little gift inside that I hope makes her laugh. Ho-ho-ho!

Oh cool! I didn’t know we had Christmas emojis!!!
Dear @chai , your SS wanted me to inform you that your gift was mailed today! She’s not good with the whole alter thing. So watch the sky for reindeers in the coming days! Put out some food for the reindeer as a treat!
My elf friends and me have worked hard
We constructed your things in our yard.
Needle and thread
Swear words were said
We’re pleased for you and your paard.
We’re giving nice treats to reindeer.
We’re even slipping them beer!
They agreed to alight
to bring you delight
To bring you some Christmas cheer.
The reindeer agreed to take off
next week, each are right now a sloth!
They rest for the day
they can carry the sleigh
to deliver your present from COTH.
Where do I find that reindeer emoji?
Stole it from the above posts.
Hit the smile at the top of the reply window.
I can never find these cute things by scrolling thru all our options but I recently noticed the search bar at the top.
So once someone posts something amazing, like it is just a matter of searching.

@ParadoxFarm from your secret santa
The reindeer are ready and waiting to get your package to you, but their delivery is delayed as we continue to wait for the last item to arrive.
The reindeer say that I am running out of time so if your last item does not get here soon we will send the reindeer off with what we have so far and they will have to visit you again with the delayed item.

Thanks, @trubandloki. I also had no idea how to find cool emojis!
@FjordBCRF, I got a message that your SS also doesn’t have time to figure out the alias thing, but wants you to know that your loot is presumably in the sleigh now. I suggest you also put out reindeer food next to your mailbox.

I got your package this afternoon and I just opened it. Thank you so much!
I was actually looking at tea pots the other day but I didn’t buy any and this one is perfect!
The coffee smells divine and I am eagerly looking forward to it in the morning. I’m going to make a cup of the hibiscus sleepy tea and binge on Netflix.
I’ll be giving Leif a candy cane in the morning so both of us will be ready to start the day right.
Thank you so much for everything. Snickers and Sammy have been nosing around everything too. Lol

I shipped one of your packages day before yesterday and realized that the drunk elf that packed and taped it up forgot to put a card in there. Never fear, the second package will have the identity of that dastardly elf that can’t pack well. 
It should be going out Monday. There is nothing perishable in the box you will get first so you can wait til Christmas if you’d like.

Islgrl, thank you so much! What a treat it was to find your gift on our doorstep this morning! I love everything - your gifts were so thoughtful and I love that you found items that mean so much to me and came from local Vineyard shops and crafters. It made me very nostalgic for the annual visits the late Mr. chai and I made to your beautiful island. I had the chocolate for breakfast - what a great way to start the day 
and I love the hat, the beautiful bird sculpture, and the clever leather ornament. Thank you so much for everything! I wish you a very Merry COTH Christmas!

I believe the reindeer have arrived!! At least I have received some soft cozy jammies and warm socks that I didn’t order. They are great

I’m drinking some Candy Cane Craze right now and it’s delicious! I smell the chocolate more than taste it but it’s yummy.
The hibiscus tea was very effective. I don’t think I binge watched much. 
Thanks again!
