Canadian Blogger Christmas Swap 2015

This year I decided to go back in on the Canadian Blogger Christmas Swap that Leigh and Lindsey host every year. 

I was lucky enough to be paired up with Anna, who actually lives about 45 minutes away in a town I actually used to work in!! Small world! 

It was neat to see how much Anna and I have in common, both being toddler moms and expecting in April! 

We decided instead of shipping our packages to each other and wasting money on postage that we could arrange a swap location - being my sisters who lives about 10/15 minutes from Anna. 

I received my gift about a week later when I saw my sister next and was quite thrilled to open such a cute box!! Inside I found a camera ornament that was personalized and a necklace set from Joe Fresh!! 

 

It appears Anna did a little research and noticed I love taking pictures! The camera is even has my name on it!! 

Thank you so much Anna for the thoughtful gifts!! I'm wishing you and your family all the best this holiday season and all the best in the new year!! 

I was going to post the seasonal barn board tutorial today as well, but I think it needs its own post! So stay tuned next week! 

I'm not sure if it's just my crazy pregnancy hormones this week or a few different things that have come up, but I'm an emotional mess! Monday afternoon and evening I found myself in tears more often than not! I know I tend to reflect on the whole year around this time, but we do have another big change taking place this weekend. So this years events are still taking place! I will touch more on that next week! 

I think most of all I'm missing a certain red haired dog more than I care to admit! Christmas is extremely hard without her as it was her favorite holiday!
