sunshineluv, I wish you could come hang with us in Colorado, too! I'm so glad the kids liked their gifts, and those kiddos in your pics are too cute for words:)
I'm SO, SO sorry about the shipping fiasco! What a PITA! I went and talked to the shipping place after you confirmed that they'd refunded you (to thank them) and they refunded me too, since I obviously paid for magic shipping and delivery that never happened:) So it all ended up ok. Thanks for being such a good sport with all of that mess!!

The fabulous Dahli and the thedahliharpa family were our secret elves. She was so sweet and included all of us.
Tyler got some pimpin' looking Mickey pajamas and some Hanukkah decorations. Soon to be baby Foozzler got an outfit, and I got some delicious looking caramel brownie mix.
BE JEALOUS!!!!! bigapple was our elf and we won the lottery ladies!!!!! Opened up to find some wonderful chips and chocolates
and she sent Joshua Frozen stickers (PUFFY stickers!), a scarf and hat set that I may steal, Goodnight Darth Vader, and a set of the OFFICIAL NYC matchbox cars- they are the coolest! And to top it off, she sent mulling spices, a bath bomb, and samples of THE official eye cream!!!!
then, he took all the tissue paper and made confetti!

Words can't describe how excited I was to see what was in this box... GERMAN GOODIES! We are talking about things like mustard in a tube (!!!!), spice in a teabag to make mulled wine, dream creamsiclechica (Im still not sure what this is exactly, lol, coffee?), haribo SNAILS, gummy bears, cups for E and F (assuming, unless it's for Dh and I for the mulled wine), bath thingy and a cute drawing from H. Thanks Dorothy Zbornak!!
@therealmc was our wonderful elf! Emerson loves her Minnie Mouse toy and car. Emmie also got a Minnie towel and pj's. I got a bunch of great Burt's Bees stuff! Thank you so much!
Awwwww Emmy, you are so cute!!! I hope she enjoys everything! xxx
She loves Minnie so much she was so excited to get all the fun Minnie gifts! The toy is a huge hit! She's carried it around all day changing her outfits.

The ladybug family were our local elves! She hand delivered a TON of stuff and spoiled all of us. D got lots of awesome Frozen stuff including slippers and a blanket that she loves. H got a frozen shirt and socks and she wore it to Disneyland. I got a super soft blanket that has since lived on our couch. Thanks so much ladybug! We were blown away by your generosity!
Argh, I have to update tapatalk. Pics to follow...
I'm late to the game, but sweet betsyray was our elf. B is obsessed with Charlie Brown & the Peanuts gang and she hit it out of the park! She sent a stuffed Snoopy that B is carrying everywhere, the Charlie Brown Christmas Book - which B promptly demanded that we read, and the cutest snowman pjs! Thank you so much!! Pictures aren't so great because B wouldn't sit still and my H already whisked the pjs away to the washing machine so B can wear them ASAP.
earlybird was our elf! Everything she picked was perfect.... Kai got a thermal with a dump truck on it (only his favorite truck, no biggie), the book Goodnight Goodnigjt Construction Site, and a set of toy construction trucks! He loved the trucks so much...in fact he kept saying "I love them!" Lol. He started playing with them immediately. Earlybird was also thoughtful enough to include me and Taj - Philosphy sparkly ginger bubble bath for me (I can't wait to use it!) and a super soft bunting for Taj. Unfortunately T slept through the presents, but I'm excited to get a photo of him in it. It's so cute.

I am so glad they refunded you. It wasn't too much of a hassle, no worries . Thank you so much for the awesome gifts. I keep eating those dang caramels! They are dangerous.
ashleydl83 spoiled us! Luke got T. Rex Jammies, an awesome animal book and the coolest Thomas book play set ever. He has not stopped playing with the trains and playmat since he opened it! AND she sent me a mug with our pictures on it- she's the sweetest! We love it all thanks ashley! Ps I've never heard of busy books before but it seems they make a lot of versions and it's the coolest gift ever!

My parents had a crunchy toy store out of our barn when I was a kid where they sold wooden and cloth toys they made. My dad gave Carter a bunch of busy books my mom had made that they never sold. C loves them!
C had this set of trucks, and it has been a favorite since summer time. I love that they're tony enough to fit in my purse and bright enough to spot under the table at restaurants.
They are surprisingly indestructible. I hope you guys love them as much and for as long as we have
You guys. Our package arrived this morning while we were out, and when we got home this evening, it was sitting here waiting for us. jamaga2583 and her boys sent Clara the sweetest box of gifts EVER! There are so many fun presents- every time I pulled something out for her, she'd spot another one and freak out. jamaga2583, you truly outdid yourself. This is such a thoughtful elf gift, and I was nearly in tears opening it.
She sent Clara a hand knit hat that is to die for (!!!), a pair of Frozen pj's (that she will never, ever take off- see pic of her hugging them below) a Frozen puzzle, a Grinch DVD, a cocoa mix called Snowman Soup, a chocolate dipped marshmallow with sprinkles on a stick (she's waving it around in the pics) and some fudge for me from a fancy fudge place!! I'm overwhelmed with your thoughtfulness, mama. Thank you so, so much!!!❤️
(She's mad I asked her to take her new hat off for dinner. Lol. )
I'm so glad it got there on time, and that she likes it! She was so much fun to shop for <3
