From Julie in Kaiteriteri

Hi All

I'm Julie and live in Kaiteriteri. I'm Miranda's mum and this is my second year in the Christmas Swap. Believe me it is wonderful to be part of it.
Isn't it just sooooo exciting opening a new parcel each morning. Allan and I were away for the first two days so I packed the appropriate parcels and sat on my sister-in-laws bed to open them. She was blown away with the gifts and the skills some people have and also the wonderful idea behind the Christmas Swap. Thankyou Alison for the decoration it is amazing and so clever.
My bottle apron and chefs hat is delightful and I know will cause lots of comment when I use it. Thankyou Marion. Gail what is the lovely smell coming from the exquisite snowflake, it is going to look great on the tree. Thankyou. Anita thankyou so much your necklace, it is divine and no I can't understand why you were nervous with that talent. This morning I opened Jean's pressie and it's the most beautiful sewing kit. Thankyou Jean it certainly will get used.
I've also brought out some of last years gifts to use this Christmas and they're filled with warm fussies and good memories. Hurry up tomorrow morning!!!!!!!!!!
