Secret Santa 2011-Ho Ho Ho let the fun begin!

A massive barking THANK YOU! to Kali's secret santa (I think I know who you were! hehe) she loved all of it! It's had to live on the mantle out of her reach since it arrive so she was delighted to get it handed to her today - and of course she'd no idea what to do with it! So I showed her the rip she had previously put into it and she figured it all out really fast then!

She got a really beautiful (and tasty, but I'll let her comment on that!) treat tree, a fairy tale pony (who got lost behind the sofa fairly fast, so queue mega crying and barking until it was retrieved for her!) a weird (in a good way!) crazy duck sort of looking thing with rope legs (her secret santa must have known how much she loves rope toys!! She was running up and down the hallway for about 45 minutes after getting it! She hasn't had a rope toy in forever so she was double delighted! And I've a feeling that was what she was trying to get at all along!) - and the last gift I think I'm more delighted with than she might be! A gorgeous little santa hat and scarf set (for dogs!) I'd been looking everywhere to get her something festive for chrimbo pictures but hadn't found anything! So getting one in the secret santa package was super!

Thank you so much to our secret santa from us both! You made our day! Kali's especially!!

Ps - Will upload photos tomorrow as I cannot find the connector for the camera

PPS - Does anyone know what time it is? And how long is it now before we do the next secret santa draw?? :D

Charlie loved his presents, thank you so much to whoever was his secret santa, I'm still clueless as to who it was!
He's exhausted now after all the excitement this evening, knew exactly what was happening as soon as the box was taken out from under the tree and very expertly ripped all the paper off the box and stuck his nose in. Loves the squeaky toy, he squeaked it all evening and still wakes up every now and again just to make sure it still squeaks! Hedgehogg has been devoured! And the blue bone he has just realised contains food and he was busy working out how to get his dog teasers out of it when I was heading to bed!

Photos and video will follow in a few minutes.

Millie and Max are THRILLED with their very kind Secret Santas!! Everything's all mixed up now and we don't know who owns what but their both having loads and loads of fun! Thank you Secret Santas - whoever you are;):):)

I wasn't aware that my dog was so badly in need of a good grooming till I saw these pics

Thanks Santa! I have another video of her doing her new game but it doesn't want to upload

A monster has been created with the chocolate drops that were in Rosies SS present. There was also a Terrys Chocolate Orange from her Secret Santa, which I assumed was for us owners. But oh no Rosie was full sure it was for her. I had just opened it and went up stairs, when I came down Rosie had it in her bed and had devoured all but 1 segment of it and quite delighted with herself

She took it off the table, she never takes anything off the table, biscuits, sweets, any sort of food even her own. So since about 12 o'clock today she has been vibrating around the house and hasn't napped all day, very unusual for her. She's like someone on crack :rolleyes:

She has become a full blown chocolate junkie in the space of 12 hours

Thanks Secret Santa for all Rosies treats but I think the chocolate drops will be heading to a friends dog

Ah thanks sooo much to Finns Secret Santa. She got loved all her toys - a Santa, a Reindeer and her favourite - a funny squashed looking snowman!!!

She ran herself ragged with them and when my sister arrived this evening she tried to grab all three at once to show her!

Will post pics later when himself sends them to my email (we used his phone).

Thanks so much again...Once again its been a great success and I am loving all the photos!!

Happy Christmas everyone and a big thanks to AJ and her helpers!!

I couldn't resist putting up a picture of the fantastic Santa hat and scarf set from our Secret Santa - it looked amazing on her! It was the perfect size for her as well - she got soooooooo many compliments on it!

So do people want to know who sent them their pressies, or not?

You'll have to wait for Mymo to open her pressies first

I think I've guessed who our Secret Santa was. I could be completely wrong! But I have a feeling our Secret Santa was who wrapped their package and addressed it and was told by the post office they wouldn't ship it just in the wrapping paper because it could fall apart.

And I'm fairly sure the recipient of our gifts has guessed who their Secret Santa was! The post office would not let me post it without a return address on it :rolleyes: I did explain I wanted to leave it anonomous because it was for a secret santa! But they weren't having it! :rolleyes:
