    For December, maybe it should not be an SP swap, but rather "Know your Angel" swap. This way The host would put two people together with their contact information. The two would know each other and swap gifts with each other keeping contact with each other throughout the month. They would let each other know when they sent the gift. This will create new friendships and keep each other accountable. This will also take the stress off the host! The host would only get the two together. Just a thought.

Can't wait to read that. And some yummy Lindt Lindor Truffles. Thank you so much again, Karla. Love everything!

    Sounds like a fine idea to me. As long as we have a swap, I am for it. I went back thru the pages and found where more than 25 said they were in for a DEC SWAP. I dont know how many others might have PM'd Suzanne.

    I'd like to do a Dec. swap too. I wouldn't mind helping out if help is needed, whether it be hosting, answering emails, what have you. I'll have plenty of time in Dec. as school is over in two weeks! :D
