You should hopefully get one now! For some reason, the invites I did from my phone didn't go through. Ugh.

Anyways, there's still over a week to sign up!

Got it. Thanks for organizing!

Sorry for being slow with posting this. I got my gift from chw57. I said I like local treats and she sent a hat, sticker, candle that smells like a Christmas tree, and eggnog fudge. I love it. Thanks so much!!!

I'm super late on this but thank you thank you thank you to my Elf for the candle, Nuun, and little notebook! The notebook is currently the holder of all my random lists, it's perfect for that

I want to say one of the gift slips had sadlebred first name on it so if I'm remembering correctly THANK YOU!! And if it wasn't you...I'll just blame pregnancy brain

Oh thank goodness! I tried to find the slip that had your first name on it but of course I found the other two but not that one...I was hoping I had read it right!

You're welcome. I wanted a more neutral color for the water bottle, but I thought the orange was ugly and I didn't like the black either. Lol. I have one and it's pretty cool! It goes really flat and I love how you can hook it on too! Enjoy!

Thank you to thom for the lovely gifts! I have one pair of Balegas, so these will be great for when I "run" (hobble/shuffle/walk). I love chocolate and salted caramel everything! Not all the chocolate is in the photo because it make it past the first hour.

The mug is beyond adorable--a cow riding a bicycle with wheels made of cheese!

mrshandy, thank you so much for the gifts! I love the headband and sunglasses, and DH and DS actually stole the chocolate orange and stroopwafels, but I'm definitely going to be stealing them back! I might be nice and share though.

Sorry I didn't manage to get a picture!

You're very welcome! I have a couple pair of those socks and like them when I want something a little lighter or with a bit of compression. Enjoy!

I got an awesome pair of balega socks and a fabulous headband today! It was a nice surprise and gift to receive after the holiday season has calmed down.

It looks like they shipped directly from running warehouse. Who sent me these nice things?? Thank you! ♥️
