secretelfofsanta, I’m speechless! “Thank you” doesn’t seem to cover it. How incredibly sweet of you! All of my info should be the same as last year; we haven’t gone anywhere. 
Now to get the surprise tears under control and go back to work…
broke down and opened my package - most excellent. Lovely soaps and warm things plus yummy stuff! I did not see any sign of who my Secret Santa is, but consider yourself muchly thanked!!
Thank you so very much Jingo Ace
I got home today to find a huge box in my mail box. Inside there were many wrapped gifts. I tried to resist but had to open them. There was a package of peppermint hot chocolate, pumpkin spice coffee, a shirt that says lifes too short,stop and smell the horses. a crocheted cap that that Serenade has already tried on. Polo Wraps, a navy medicine bag, a book about Julie Suhr. sports rub and much more. She also enclosed a beautiful card. Thank you ever so much.
I’ve been staring at my package from Zonderpaard for weeks now. It’s not going to last until Christmas. It’s just not. Nope. I give myself until this weekend. Tops. Tops.
For those still waiting, never fear! My person should be getting her package this weekend! I had to wait for one last thing to show up, so couldn’t mail until this past Monday. But it’s out and should arrive in a few days!
My gif tee is not grinched! Got a wrong item in the mail. Sent back waiting for right item. May ship two packages instead of just one! Won’t out myself but know that even though I am running a fever, coughing up a lung I will make it happen!
So if your package hasn’t arrived it is coming!
My person will be getting her first package from my helper (Amazon). I have one more thing to get and will be putting another package together with a reveal.
To my elf: I broke down and opened the chocolate. OMG. I brought it to work because my ass would have been huge if I had it all. My co-workers are very happy. Tug loves the cookies. Kane - if he could beg for peppermints he would. He is nudging me for more as I unwrap them.
WOOHOO! To my elf… ADORE the dressage saddle pad!!! :yes: Thank you!!! 
It is so fun to read all these great surprises.:yes:
It’s the best part about secret Santa!
I think
Oh Munchingonhay . . . .
Drafties are quiet
We think long and hard
Unless there is food
Then we’ll knock you out of the yard :yes:
Rumor has it you love to cook,
and good food is fun to create.
Are there any magazines you already get
That Draft Elf shouldn’t duplicate?
Since we move a bit slower
Your gift will be shipping forthwith.
So keep your eyes open
More toward the 25th.
SQUEEEE!
Draft Elf,
I currently do not receive any magazines of the culinary persuasion…but I can tell you that I have been on a HUGE Julia Child kick and just picked up my first Le Creuset skillet.
Tonight’s dinner was gnocchi with bacon and alfredo sauce with a bit of onion and garlic.
ACK! This is so much FUN!
I just received my gift!!! Thank you so much Foaling Around, I love everything!! Made my day brighter when I got home. You rock! Thanks!!!
Thank you so much for the gifts! The puppies have enjoyed the treats already (after I figured out I had to microwave them )
The books are lovely and the socks are AWESOME! I am such a funky sock fan!
Thank you so much!

MMacallister, watch your your mail.
In one weeks time, you’ll find packages there.
Two boxes you will receive,
filled with holiday cheer from me!
I hope you enjoy what I have sent
to delight your household in barn and tent!
One warning though I give to you,
the gifts aren’t wrapped 
I know, poo poo!
Hopefully, you’ll forgive your elf
Who saved wrapping money to send more fun stuff for your shelf.
The boxes come from two locals,
Killer Hats inc and Amazon.
So if opening presents early will make you forlorn,
don’t open those boxes til Christmas morn!
But if you can’t wait, don’t be sad,
when it comes to opening presents, I too am bad!!![/QUOTE]
Murphy’s Mom,
The big red man forgot to tell me your last gift was ready for pick up. It took a special elf phone call to ask if it was ready. I will get your package out this weekend, elf’s honor.

No problem! Still plenty of time to ship. And less time for me to peek!
Subira, I’m not your Elf, just a helper, but I do know on good authority that another box should be headed your way.

Wow!! Thanks for the update…I’ll keep an eye out for another box!! I feel super special to not have and Elf and an elf helper!
Fessy’s Mom…
Your package left on the big red sleigh this afternoon. Should arrive on Monday. There are some cookies for the ponies and the puppies but not for you. :no: This elf got a little stressed out earlier this week and felt the need for chocolate. So I ate it. :yes: Actually, I did you a favor. The chocolate I thought would be yummy was pretty nasty! :lol:
Thanks Festive Fessy! I can’t wait to receive it!
