I had the most amazing Secret Santa! He or she literally brought me to tears, on more than one occasion.

About two and a half years ago I moved from Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Cleveland, Ohio. My Santa did a little digging on me and found just how incredibly homesick I am. You would think after time it has gotten easier, when it's only gotten more tough. I received THREE incredible and thoughtful Wisconsin and Milwaukee themed care packages! They all shipped from specific stores in my state and even my city. I'm so moved beyond words at the thought that went into this!

My first package was a Wisconsin Sampler Cheese Crate! As the majority of Cheeseheads, it's in our DNA to love the stuff! There were several cheese blocks (one even shaped like Wisconsin), sausage, different tasting mustards, and Cow Pie candies! Cow Pies are some of my favs!

My second package was a Wonder Land winter blend of coffee from Collectivo. It came right from their flagship store in downtown Milwaukee! When I walked into my apartment lobby, I could smell the fresh grounds! I even thought to myself, that someone must be pretty lucky to get a package like that in our building. It was me!!

My final package is a beautiful print of downtown Milwaukee over a great sunny day! It's so great and it reminds me of summer time. My summer time. My husband is so excited to get the print framed and hung on our wall right away!

Thank you so much, Secret Santa. You've absolutely gone above and beyond. Your care and consideration, and your thoughtfulness to a total stranger and their daily heart-string struggles is absolutely mind boggling. You've made such a huge positive impact in my holiday season. You've already given me one helluva Christmas, and it's not even here yet!

Thank you a million times over!

I wish you, your family, and your friends a safe and Happy Holidays. I hope you have a bangout, milestone 2017!
