Went nutso with the photos, my apologies for the get-to-the-point meat and potatoes enthusiasts.

Holy Cow! Officially excellent Exchange!

Santa messaged me early on explaining that we are IRL BFFs and she was jazzed to be my Santa. Santa, I am jazzed to be your giftee! She then waited until shipping day to keep me on my toes. I'm thinking I will follow suit next year, top-notch anticipation!!

I documented the journey in my photos, but I will summarize here as well.

First and foremost, my lovely pupper Pepper Potts was spoiled beyond measure. Santa lives where Zuke's creationland is and HOOKED PEPPER UP! She received SEVEN bags of high quality, superfood dog treats. SHE LOVES THEM! Even the biscuit type ones which she normally completely snubs (brat).

Second up! Treat Yo Self! I got a gorgeous new handmade necklace! It's totally my style (thin chain with big ole centerpiece) and really brings out my colors! Can I pimp my Santa? You can find her on Fb@ /SolizJewlery and Etsy@ /shop/SolizCo. Absolutely quality gorgeous necklace! THANK you! Already gotten a complement! On a side note; I would like to take a moment to mourn the tragedy of my fallen favorite necklace, which I broke about half an hour after my cheesy package photoshoot while waiting for my Santa to give me the AOK to proceed (as opposed to waiting for Christmas day). I am assured the old fave can be fixed, but gosh it made the arrival of this necklace even a little more special somehow.

Thirdly! ROCKY MOUNTAIN CHOCOLATE!! Holy cow what a treat, extra credit luxury dark chocolate almond bark that was shipped FRESH from the local factory that ALSO lives near Santa! Had a piece right away and shared JUST a little with a friend who is choco-nutso-bananza who stopped by for Christmas. Four thumbs up Santa!

Four! Omgosh Four! A Mod notebook! I have never even heard of anything like this, but it goes like this: you do you in the notebook, go crazy. Then ship it back to the manufacture and they will professionally digitize the content of the notebook! Very cool and I am thinking on fun ideas to play with!

BUT WAIT, THERES MORE. Santa doesn't mess around. She hit the holy gift giving trinity, treats for my love, treats for me, and treats for someone truly in need. She made a donation to the Dreaming Zebra Foundation in my honor! This charity focuses on getting children the art and music supplies they need to explore not only the depths of their creativity and capability, but the details of their own souls. Children ABSOLUTELY NEED art. Even if only from a developmental standpoint. I AM honored Santa, thank you!

Santa, if you don't mind the vulgarity. Way to kick ass. Much love, Haley
