I signed up for the Baseball exchange in order to get something neat for my fiance. I mean, I like baseball too, but he's kind of a super fan. We had a lot of fun picking out something for our match, who ended up being a Yankees fan just like him! It was an awesome experience that we both enjoyed. When it came time for us to receive a gift it didn't happen, but we were hopeful for a rematch. When we did get rematched (yay!) they were SUPER duper prompt and messaged us right away to get some more details. Within just a couple days we saw it had shipped, and my fiance was getting more and more excited.

This morning while we were sitting around watching Mary Tyler Moore (what a classic show), we got a knock on the door. Had it gotten here already? YES. YES IT DID.

"Shouldn't I put on pants so you can take pictures?" he asked, knowing already how this whole deal works. I told him to forget it, we'd do it later. We were too excited to wait.

Right on top inside the box was a puppet Derek Jeter. Not so sure about the resemblance...but we like him. Maybe we'll take him to a game next time. So we laughed about the Puppet Captain for a minute and then I pulled out the next gift. HOLY MOSES.

It's a jersey! And not just any jersey...an authentic, Cooperstown Collection, batting practice jersey for #51, Bernie Williams - his favorite Yankee!! Not only that, but it's the 1998 jersey, which is a year they won the World Series. Extra cool points.

He had the biggest smile on his face, and just kept looking at it. I kept asking what he thought, and he said, "I'm just dumbfounded."

So, SS, it's safe to say he LOVES your gift. We're absolutely blown away at your generosity and thoughtfulness. You're a class act (for a Phillies fan ;) )

He just said he hopes he stays a medium forever so he can always wear it.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
