When we came home from lunch today, we caught our mailman walking up the yard carrying a few packages. I was hoping one of them was my keychains gift, which I knew was on its way, and it was!

My keychains exchange gift arrived today all the way from Denmark, and I can't get over how adorable it is! My Santa's nine year-old cousin, Sofie, helped pick everything and included some fantastic extras that made my whole day!

First off, everything was wrapped in the most amazing packaging which I had previewed on /r/secretsanta and hoped was coming my way! Turns out it was! :D

Every item had a little gift tag with a note explaining why /u/Minerva092 and Sofie had sent it my way.

First my Santas sent a little keychain that I've had my eye on because it looks just like my dog, Alphonse! (For photographic evidence, see Alphonse modeling.) I've already put it on my keyring, where it looks fabulous!

Gift number two was a magnetic keyholder shaped like a cloud. We haven't hung it up quite yet, but it should stick directly to the wall and we can just throw our keys on it as we come in the door, so we won't lose them anymore!

The third package from Santa and Sofie was a set of dice for D&D, which Marcus and I usually play twice a week :)

Santa and Sofie also sent candy inspiration for our D&D games in the fourth package, which had five packages of little Haribo gummies and candies. We have Haribo gummy bears in the States, but the other four types of candies are ones I've never had before! Marcus was already trying to convince me to let him eat them as we left our lunch break to head back to work, so they're not going to last long!

But best of all was a little mysterious package wrapped in purple, which said "Sofie made this for you". Inside was an adorable drawing of the making of a rainbow and a handmade bookmark with my initial on it! I've already replaced the bookmark I had in my current book with the new bookmark from Sofie, and hung the drawing and letter from Sofie on my wall at my office :)

This gift made me feel so loved and appreciated. /u/Minerva092 and Sofie did a fantastic job picking gifts for me, and I loved the extra personal touch. Thank you both so much!

PS: There's a little thank you video for Sofie as well, heavily featuring my nosy dog who wanted desperately to be in my lap/in the shot. In case the watch video doesn't work, the direct link is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lB6AufG_SkE&feature=youtu.be
