This was my first time doing Reddit Secret Santa and I can't wait to do it next year! My santa was awesome. I got a message from my santa about a week and a half after we got our matches saying that my gift should arrive that day! I was already on my way home frome work and I couldn't wait to get home! There was a big box waiting for me when I got home! It was from amazon and I couldn't wait for Christmas to open it.

Inside were two gifts wrapped in the new Amazon gift wrappings, which are so pretty! I opened the smaller one first. It had a tag on the outside that said they suck at getting gifts and that they are living in Germany at the moment, so they would be sending another box from Germany because I wrote in my exchange preferences that I have never traveled outside the US and have always wanted to. Inside was a set of kabuki makeup brushes. I immediately got really excited! I love makeup and a girl can never have too many brushes. These are so soft and well made. The second package was much bigger. The tag said they hope I have a great holiday season take some time for myself and my loved ones. This was very sweet. I opened the packaging and inside was a large drawing set! I'm an interior design student and love art, especially drawing. I'm so excited to use this set! I've always wanted a mannequin, but never got one for myself. I was sending pictures to my boyfriend while opening these (he couldn't wait 'til Christmas either!) and we both agree, my santa does not suck at getting gifts! These were spot on!

A few days later my santa let me know that they shipped my second package and I just got it in the mail today. It's a box full of German cookies and chocolates as well as a pretty Christmas ornament and a little mug! This is so cool! I have German heritage so this was really cool that my santa lives in Germany! I can't wait to try all of my new treats and this pretty ornament has a new home on my new Christmas tree! I also love coffee and tea, so this mug will get plenty of use!

Christmas is my favorite holiday and my first time doing RSS was so much fun. I can't wait to do it again next year! (Sorry this post is so long)
