P.S.  do Sugarplum fairies fossilize?

Nope... but they crystallize. :default_rofl:

I just wanted to make sure everybody gets their packages in a timely manner since some people leave home for the holidays.

I hope your Christmas dreams come true and all get some good stuff.

Our Secret Santa package arrived and it came with a direction to NOT save until Christmas. After I opened it, I understood why. @I_gotta_rock sent us an Advent Calendar with a different fossil for each day. 

I will post pictures as we go. What a thoughtful and lovely gift ! 

What a brilliant idea ,  thought full and creative. Way to go @I_gotta_rock

I recieved mine last week all the way from Washington state on the left coast. Cannot wait to see what is in it.

Mine went out this morning and is expected to be delivered Saturday.

I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt

Thanks for the update.

Hopefully all will have their nice packages on time for the "Grand Opening" in a few short weeks.

My Santa is protecting his secret marvelously. I received a package today, with a return address, From: The Fossil Forum. No other name. No street address. No state, no zip code. Just, The Fossil Forum. Ha! Can't fool me. I know it's from Santa. North Pole. Although the package has only my PO Box address, and not my name, I'm reasonably certain it was intended for me. My wife isn't as sure though. It might be for her, she says. She has attended several of our forum meet-up hunts. Perhaps she's right. Now, though, it will sit unopened until Christmas, giving us plenty of time to discuss it. Nice Secret, Santa.

Anymore "International" packages get recieved that I haven't heard about?

Seems I still have 7 that are unaccounted for.

@Tidgy's Dad

@Max-fossils

@Monica

@Jesuslover340

@MSirmon

@fossilsonwheels

@sharkdoctor

 

I haven't crossed @Coco from the list yet,  but I would gather from the dancing emojis that you did receive it. Is that correct?

 

If any of you have gotten your Secret Santa gift ready can you please let me know or kindly alert me when it does come.

I would like to keep tabs on them. That goes for domestic as well. I already have all that have posted receiving so far.

Thank you!

Sorry, I’m a slacker. I’ve had my santa delivery for some time now. It may or may not have been opened early but I can neither confirm nor deny that this did or did not occur. :default_rofl:

You lost some of your effect by using effect rather than affect. :P And I have no fear of pointing this out since I’m already on the naughty list.

You said you were a bad girl and opened your gift early. Welcome to the naughty list. It’s more fun here anyway.

Oh gosh, you're right. I've just been arrested and booked by the Texas Grammer Police!  :default_rofl: 

Guilty as charged.

 

BTW, Thanks for sparing the handcuffs!
