Ok everyone!
I'm back from my scarey adventure! Drove Courtney as far as Quantico, VA. Road cleared and so did the weather, so she was good to drive by herself. My friend Machel drove with us in her car and brought me home.
When I got home, Bill asked me when I was to open the packages and I told him it was today. He was excited and ran to all of them and started opening them. When I asked him what he was doing, he said he was helping me. lol
I want to thank all of you for the wonderful snowball fight you sent me. You sent me so many snow balls, it all accumulated to about 5 inches outside! How great is that?
I'll be posting pictures tomorrow.
HUGS AND THANKS TO ALL!

Teri so glad you got your daughter safe and sound to where she could make it the rest of the way. our youngest dd left this morning and she made it home to WY after a 9 hour drive. she said she was sure glad she didn't have to drive so much in SD with the crappy roads they had. She said the ditches are full of snow. The roads into WY weren't the best either but she made it. Glad everyone has had fun opening their pkgs. I am sure glad we all got pkgs this yr. Looks like we all had a haul. I am for sure going to do this again next yr. I think I will start collecting now so that I can send a really BIG box next yr. Amy

Now is the time to start collecting. Tons of things after Christmas will be going on sale, so you can pick them up cheap. that's how most of the people get what they need for next years SS.
There's usually someone that wonders HOW someone can send out a package with so much stuff and only spend $20. Well? That's how it's done. You shop and shop all year long. When you find a deal on something, you buy it, whether it's 1 or 101. There's usually a swap that you will join and you can always tuck something nice in to what you are sending. I collect all year long. I can usually find seam rippers for 10 cents, cute buttons for a quarter or so, thread is always going on sale at different times of the year. Fat quarters go on sale also. You can always tuck extra fat quarters into a package too. There's all sorts of things to find and gather.
