After a brief altercation with the mail carrier, I retrieved my package yesterday.(seriously, it's a nutty story).

First up was the super cute card. Anybody that loves dogs will grin like an idiot over that card, how could you not??

My Secret Santa didn't want my dog Doodle left out of the gift giving, so they included two presents for her. First is an awesome chew/tug toy. Santa didn't know this, but my girl LOVES to chase birds, so this toy is beyond perfect!

Next was some treats. I made a video of her first taste test, youtube link included. (spoiler alert, she loves them!)

I am a gamer, and one of my favorite video games is Destiny. (btw, anyone that gave up on Destiny 2, the Forsaken expansion really turned that game around, give it another shot!). Santa got me a Warlock action figure. This Guardian is decked out in the raid gear from the King's Fall raid in Destiny 1. Also included is the Touch of Malice scout rifle and Black Hammer sniper rifle. This thing has crazy awesome detail and will look great standing next to the various other gaming action figures I have!

Last but definitely not least... My favorite video game franchise of all time is The Legend of Zelda and Breath of the Wild was a fantastic entry to the franchise. This book is called "Creating a Champion". This book is HUGE! It's almost 500 pages of artwork, Hyrule history/lore, developer interviews, and "making of" information for the game. Just flipping through the first few pages has me completely blown away!

Thank you so much to my Secret Santa. You have completely exceeded any possible expectations I could have had for my gifts in every way imaginable. I am so grateful and just over the moon for these gifts.

Best wishes to you, your family, and your dog(s?). Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

THANK YOU!
