I love the gift of giving! And I was SO super excited to participate in Christmas in July hosted by Cecilia of Dearest Lou, Alyx of Everyday is a new adventure and Daryl of Roots, Wings and other things.

I was paired up with Britta of The Boots Parade! She's living an adventure in Costa Rica with her bf and CUTE baby dog Rocco, but is from new jersey! Also, her fashion sense is so chic & cute! and we both secretly like this song! It was fun stalking her blog and emailing back and forth about things she liked and just getting to know her a bit. She's such a warm, caring & beautiful person. I enjoyed shopping for her.

When I read her list of things that she liked, i thought, "oh this is gonna be easy and fun to shop for her". My mind was buzzing with cute little things to maybe get her while sticking to the $10-20 budget. It was funny too because she emailed me and told me that when she read my list of things she thought, "she likes the same things i like. shopping for her will be like shopping for me!" lol.

can i just say that I LOVE her name: Britta Marie. almost twins! ;)

alright so let's get on to the AWESOME package that she sent me!!
