It's from Denmark! @Kristoff sent me an organizer!

And what's in the other box?

 

[Kristoff]

Thank you. I am relieved that you like it. I actually wanted to get myself that book as well but it was the last one. I tried sticking to your parameters requested. Being not too big for future packing and your love of photography and books. [emoji3]

Oh, how sweet. I’m sorry I got the last copy. We will really enjoy reading it though... [emoji4][emoji8]

 

[Kristoff]

I thought that was a macrame plant holder???????

Shows how much I know about plants... [emoji33]

 

[CarolM]

Sorry about the excessive tape, Kathy!
It has become a standard joke that our family OVER tapes everything, and packs objects within an inch of their life!!!!
I hope you enjoy!!!!

I am coming to you next time when I need something packed nice and safely.

I'm not. It just makes it more special. Merry Christmas.

[Kristoff]

Oh Shame. [emoji3] [emoji23] . I am sure he will understand when you explain.

And after he sees all the groceries? [emoji33][emoji33]

I am having to go out of CDR and back in to refresh so I don't miss any posts.

 

[Kristoff]

GAAAAAHHHHH!!!! I forgot we had talked about opening presents today!!!!
I will open mine NOW: just 1 hour late!!!

You were perfectly on time!

 

[Kristoff]

Since this is my first year doing the TORTOISE gift exchange... Do we open them all at once, or one at a time, or what?

Last year we took turns. But it doesn’t really matter. It’s all fun. [emoji173]️

Our turn next. Lol we are having 3 Christmas parties this year. [emoji23] I am even more excited now.

 

[Kristoff]

Yes. The screen shot I posted is what happens when I click home. It's also what happens when I click "Newsfeed." It's like they think I'm a brand new member, and yet the show all the things I belong to.

You’re probably not on it enough, so their algorithm hasn’t figured you out yet. Posts from a wine shop next door always come on top for me, for some reason... [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Me too!

Can’t wait for yours and Heather’s to arrive too!

Our Christmas tree which my boys put up for me yesterday.
