Woot!  Countdown to opening day begins... Only 5 more days to go!  :D

Hoping that everyone is receiving their packages through ok!  :)

Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in...

I've received word that two more presents are on their way!

Mrs. Robinson and Bound4Orkney~ Your packages have been posted and please don't open the outer packages till opening day.

Bound4orkney, I've been told that you should be careful about how you open the package. Mysterious!!  :D

Now I have received a international telegram from Beccarose's Secret Santa that reads as follows:


Just letting you know that Beccarose's gift was sent today and should arrive in 2 or 3 days assuming USPS behaves itself in the way it should!

Also, her gift would be best enjoyed sooner rather than later, though it will certainly keep well beyond the opening date. So it's up to her if she'd like to open it before opening day.



That sounds pretty exciting, Beccarose!  If you do decide to rip into that bad boy early, just keep it secret on here until our Official Gift Opening Day next Wednesday, ok?  Ho ho ho ho ho!

Still no package but that's ok, the USPS around these parts is usually the equivalent to 100 years ago.  ;) I'm so excited though!
9/11/2012 Husband mailed his US citizenship application.
9/17/2012 Received e-mail stating his application has been entered into the system.
9/22/2012 Hubby received letter with date for finger printing.
10/12/12 Hubby went for finger printing.
10/26/12 Dh got a letter stating when he should appear for his interview and test- 11/27/12- just a month away!!!
11/27/12 We went to dh's interview and test- he passed and we went back 4 hours later for the Oath Ceremony! 95 people from 38 countries, really pretty cool!
So he's now a US citizen!!
