So today after much waiting (and me almost panicking because my regular mail was delivered and despite my package being marked as "Out for Delivery" it hadn't arrived yet...OH NO.) I FINALLY GOT MY ARBITRARY DAY GIFT.

It arrived as my fiancee and I were getting ready to leave, and he comes back inside with this huge box and sets it in front of me.

And let me say it was well worth the wait. My Santa got me a wonderful game (wait for it), a couple cute little things that I love, and an assortment of goodies from Guam.

My Arbitrary Day Secret Santa is an amazing lady.

I got a HUGE box, much larger than I would ever anticipate!

I also got a lovely card right on top, with a fantastic note from my SS.

The pictures of the gifts are in no particular order, I don't really remember what I unwrapped when, as I took pictures when I got home a couple hours after unwrapping.

As I finished writing these we busted open the cookies....they're delicious. Like an extra good version of shortbread.

I'm pretty sure my fiancee's favourite part of this is trying all the different snacks.

Seriously though, we really do appreciate the wonderful carved chess set. It is absolutely beautiful (and smells wonderful!) and we're very excited to be able to use it.

My fiancee was skeptical about exchanging gifts with strangers, because we don' have many friends so he thought this was a whole silly idea. But I think now he sees that some people are just genuinely nice and want to spread some cheer :)

Thank you so much! <3
