Whoop Whoop! Thanks for the fun Christmas Trivia Quiz! I was feeling a little gloomy and decided to change my train of thought and think Christmas. Fun fun. Getting excited about the swap.

I had to think...did I miss the sign up date...what month is it anyway? I am so ready for a holiday surprise!

Way to go, Nonnie! I would have been knocked out on the first question -- forgot about Marley's ghost!

Look at the Pretties!
 

I received the cutest little package today and wondered where it came from. Then I noiticed a tiny card that said it was the prize for the Christmas trivia! Thanks Have4boys! What fun !
