I was so lucky to be introduced to a marvelous idea by my good friend, Sarah. A Secret Ornament Exchange, hosted by Julie. (http://abbilyeverafter.com/) It was exactly what I needed this season - being so far from family.
So...IT HAS ARRIVED!
My beautiful jingle bell wreath ornament from SJ in Colorado (http://www.andallthejonesmen.blogspot.com/) has arrived. I love it - and so do the boys.
SJ - It is so interesting to me that we should be paired. My husband and I have looked at Colorado Springs on many occasions to relocate to after be retires from the Navy in the Spring. We both love Colorado. Thank you for the lovely ornament, it reminds me of Colorado ... and inspires sweet day dreams of how I hope our future unfolds - wherever that may be.

Hallie, I'm so glad you commented on my blog, since I hadn't been able to figure out where you were blogging at. My parents lived in Co Springs when me dad taught at the Academy. You guys would love it, if you have to leave Hawaii;)
I loved doing the ornament exchange as well! It was so fun to have my blog life make it on to my Christmas tree.
you take amazing pictures btw
Thanks for participating in the swap - I'm glad you enjoyed receiving your ornament. It really amazes me how the "random" pairings have ended up with some many connections.
Nice ornament! The exchange was fun!
Oh! I'm glad it FINALLY arrived. Seems like I mailed it ages ago! And too, I'm glad you like it!
And considering we visited Hawaii this past year, I was thrilled to get someone in Hawaii! If you ever want to know more about Colorado, just email me!
