This was my very first exchange and I am unbelievably surprised by my Santa (by the way, if you're reading this, I'm so sorry for rambling on in my post)! I signed up for the Pen & Stationary Exchange and what did I get in return? A Pen & Stationary + Color + Cozy Toes exchanged all combined into one.

My reactions while opening this exchange (in chronological order):

First, take a moment to appreciate my Santa's wrapping skills! It's perfect.

Second, the card was super duper sweet. I didn't take a picture of the actual letter inside of the card (I got too excite and forgot to take a photo).

Third, adding in anything edible gets a thousand brownie points from me.

Fourth, I love the notebook. I guess I forgot to take a photo of the entire notebook. It's a simple notebook that has a ton of quotes on it!

Please note: At this point, I was already thinking, "THIS IS TOTALLY AWESOME."

I didn't know what was in the purple bag yet and....

HOLY GUACAMOLE!

MORE CHOCOLATE?! AND SAILOR VENUS/MARS SOCKS? AND PENS GALORE? AND PURPLE NAIL POLISH? AND PURPLE IN GENERAL?

I took a few photos of the pens and "pen swatches" (if that's even a thing). I had to do a close up of one of the pens. The cap has a face, legs, ears, AND A TAIL!

I am beyond words. All I can say is, THANK YOU SANTA!

P.S.

Now, I have to step up my exchange game next round!

tldr; My Santa is awesome and I couldn't have asked for anyone better. I hope your Santa is just as amazing as you are!
