Title: WOW I hit the jackpot
Post by: marmoh on December 03, 2012, 06:17:47 pm
'Twas 22 days before Christmas and what did I see,
But my dear wonderful husband bringing a USPS box to me.
I tore at the package so happy with glee,
It was going too slow I wanted to see.
Paper was flying I was into the task,
My secret Santa had arrived at last.
The note in the box brought a tear to my eye,
When I saw it was from our forum yyyyyguy.
There was a box, with a reindeer on top,
My mind kept saying, keep going don't stop.
I opened the lid and what did I see,
But 9 little reindeer looking at me.
It was Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen,
Then came Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen.
But the most favorite one of all that I chose,
Was the one that said Rudolph with the shiny red nose.
I was clapping my hands and jumping with glee,
When hubby said ?Move over and let me see?.
He looked back at me with a gleam in his eye,
And said ?That was really nice of yyyyyguy?.
I handled each one, that was a must,
And found they were covered in cute pixie dust.
So the season has started with happiness and cheer,
I'm so glad that I entered the Santa exchange this year.


Pete , can't thank you enough for the wonderful gift.  You totally out did your self.  They will be shown around and bragged about and remembered as one of the nicest gifts I have ever received.      Marion

Very nice, just hope none of Santa's reindeer dont die in some hunting tragedy....otherwise you might need a new ornament to replace that one.
