Whoo Hoo!!
 
Last week we had a nasty snowstorm Tuesday night, followed by record breaking cold for several days. School was closed for three days!! On no school days, I stay home with my daughter. Unfortunately, I did not bring my laptop home from work Tuesday, so I wasn't able to immediately say thank you for the Secret Santa Surprise I recieved Thursday.

I know this wasn't from my actual SS, becasue I gave them my work address. So whomever is responsible, thank you!! This was a great surprise!

So, without further ado...

Contents of red tissue paper.

1) Some wash away your sins towlettes. Obviously this person did some research about me...
2) A really cool fossilized gastropod (snail) shell. I wonder, was this a local treasure? It's really cool.

How awesome!

I love the sin towelettes, and the fossil is beautiful. And I always love Happy Bunny.

Nice job, whomever! :)

A solar powered lamp in a jar! How fun!! Unfortunately, my house doesn't get any good direct sunlight in the winter, and although it says safe for outdoors, I don't think they meant when the temp was -20. (-45 or so with windchill :eek: ) I will bring it to work and try to charge 'er up.

Of course I had to open the lid to see how it worked...

There were also a fun set of tumblers. I will enjoy drinking my vodka crans out of them around the firepit this summer, when it is safe to go outside with exposed skin...

The entire haul:

I giggled last night remembering the pic of your daugther in the bubble wrap, LR. I remembered the video of her playing in the puddle. That girl loves life, doesn't she?

Very cool. :)
