We had a major giftquake around here this afternoon! I think it was totally off the scale, too! Wow...it's even struck me speechless at the sight and you know how rare it is that I'm without words.

Just when I thought it impossible for Miss Priss to be more spoiled, Anne (mypreciouspups) and Gracie have managed!

It is magical to me that there are so many things in the box that I wanted Taffy to have...someday... I know I never wrote them down anywhere or said them out loud. (Oh my gosh...I even had the bed ordered once and then talked myself out of it because I'd already spent so much!) It has to be magic otherwise I am totally freaked out that Anne was able to get her such perfect gifts!

As spoiled as she is, EVERYTHING in the box is something new that's she's never had before! Well, everything except the bully sticks but have I mentioned how magical they are, too? She grabbed one after opening gifts and grabbing a few toys but when she saw the bully stick, she was done for the day! Never mind that I gave her a new one night before last that she. never. touched. at. all!

Unfortunately, once the magic bully stick was discovered, I lost any pretense of cooperation for photos...LOL I thought we'd improved on pictures but not where there are PRESENTS! CRINKLY PAPER! BULLY STICKS! Oh boy, many blurs again.

Anne, the whole afternoon has been a Kodak moment but unfortunately my camera is a Canon! LOL

Watch for a Smilebox to come later this afternoon.

Anne and Gracie, I tried to make a special Smilebox for you but as hard as I try, it just doesn't do justice to the giftquake explosion we had here today!

Thank you so very, very much. You've made not only this GE special but also her first Christmas and her first birthday! We are all quite touched by the beautiful gifts and speechless at your generosity (and I might add...quite impressed at your sneaky tactics...LOL)

The cases are so special. I can't wait to use them to carry stuff on our upcoming vacation. Taffy's things will travel in style for sure!

Everything is so lovely but I am so very, very touched by the treat that has her name on it! Oh my...it still tears me up. I'm such an old sentimental sobsister but I know how very special that is. I had no idea there was anything out there with her name and that you found it and sent it to us is just amazing to me! Thank you so very much.

Here's the Smilebox we made but I guarantee you it does not do justice to the special box that landed on our doorstep this afternoon:

bellasmomok · 12-01-2009, 04:11 PM

OMG!! Where did she get the black and pink Yorkie case?? I saw it in a picture once and looked ALL OVER FOR IT, to no avail!

I wanted it to use as my bow "box". Don't you think it would be so cute for that?!!

P.S. Taffy, girl! You got some cute, cute things, you lucky girl! Wow-eee! Santa Paws must REALLY love you!

mypreciouspups · 12-01-2009, 05:35 PM

Debbie, OMG you got your parcel today..

for such a nice smile box and story..it was so special to me!!

I am just delighted that Taffy, you and hubby had a great day with her gifts.. hope both pairs of jamies fit ok..I knew you would love the waiting for Santa and so so hoped you had not gotten them already..

I was worried cause they are so popular!!
Taffy looks so adorable in her new bed. BTW they wash up very nice also..

Debbie you have so made my day.. My hubby said he enjoyed your story and he said, well I can see why you enjoy doing these GE's when you can make some one smile and be happy!!!

We so enjoyed having you as a buddie..you have no idea how much fun it was planning this parcel....

linda44 · 12-01-2009, 05:40 PM

Oh Debbie Taffy got spoiled even more! Anne you did a wonderful job......Taffy is going to be so cute in her new stuff.......love the bed......

Robin Lodal · 12-01-2009, 09:42 PM

Oh Taffy, you look so precious with your new jammies on!

Looks like Santa Paws did spoil you.... maybe Anne and Gracie REALLY are Santa Paws... hmmmm

Anne, both pair of jammies fit perfectly! She stayed in the Santa ones for most of the afternoon and looked so precious. When we changed for bedtime, I put her in the little camo ones. Both look so cute on her...and by the way, she didn't have a pair of the Santa ones but I have admired them from afar. Literally, everything you got her is totally new to us except bully sticks and we'd never had the magical ones of those.

I hope that when we have a calmer day around here I can get some decent photos of her in her new attire. (It literally would have been like taking a bottle from a baby trying to get that bully stick away from her this afternoon. Plus, when she picked up the large one after a rare respite from the regular one, she went around and around whimpering and looking for a great hiding place. Guess she didn't want Frank or me grazing on her bully stick...LOL)

She is one more worn out puppy tonight. It has been a big day today with all the excitement of the presents plus a feline intruder on our back porch. (We've had a cat come up there before but this was a different one and Taffy spied it! Oh, my! You would have thought Jack the Ripper was outside...LOL)

Looks like Taffy really did get a visit from Santa Paws!!! Great job, Anne!!! What a great box!!! Love the smilebox too!!

3FurryFaces · 12-02-2009, 12:44 PM

Taffy - what a lucky spoiled girl you are! Your SB did a fantastic job, but so did you with that smilebox!
