Birthday hooray! (private swap)

[NovelNerd]

I have to say my birthday was not so fun this year. It was about as joyous as pulling teeth, but today I got my awesome box from Michelle. We did a private birthday swap and dang did she make an awesome box! This box really outdid mine and made me smile pulling out such pretty pretty things.  Lemme see my pictures aren't so great because I just got home from a job interview and I was in the floor trying to snap pictures with the dim lighting in my mother's crowded house. The wife is hiding on the couch trying to avoid her face being caught on camera.

I went to pick up the box and wow it was a really big princess box! Look at how large it is with so many lovely wrapped packages.

That card is adorable! Did you make it? I had trouble finding a MLP card, so I made yours but it did not turn out nearly as awesome and cute as this one. The Cheshire cat pillow made me squeal because I have been looking for that pillow! I lived by a Disney store till we moved recently and could never find it and cringed at the online shipping cost. I love it and lol Cobi stole it from me a while ago to snuggle up to, silly dog. The little figurines are just adorable. I have one set I've kept in box, but I'm taking these out to decorate my Alice tree I'm putting up this year since we have a bigger place.

I mentioned to Michelle before I wasn't really collecting anymore, but it would be nice to get a new set of flutters and wingers since I sold mine to just rehair or pretty up. I was stunned that the flutters just kept coming and coming! Haha, I'm now down to just missing one girl and have plenty to work with. Oh, I wouldn't dare forget little Buzzer in there. Some of these girls will be getting fun new colored hair depending on the state of their hair.

Anyway, a big thank you Michelle. You've been a great friend to me since I joined and despite my being gone a lot or showing up randomly you're always so sweet to me. I loved making your box and receiving one from you. You're just a great friend.

Also everyone ignore the sheets. My dad hates my dogs and while we're here he kinda has everyone put sheets on the furniture if the dogs are going to sit on it.

I'm sorry to hear your birthday wasn't so great.  At least you got a lovely swap box to open.  That homemade card looks really nice.  Congrats on all of your flutters

Huge hugs my friend!  I opened my box too, and will post my brag tomorrow!  Epic private swap:)
Oops, hit the submit bottom too soon!

No, I didn't make the card, my daughters found it at Target.  The Pillow Pet and Alice figures are from Disney World when we went down there in July.  It was soooooo hard to keep them a secret!!!
