I can’t remember how I came across the LWPSantographer Facebook group, but I’m so glad I did. It’s a gift exchange for photographers to network and spread a little cheer.

Because I wasn’t paying attention, I almost missed the sign up… well, I *did* miss the sign up, but when the group owner, Laura of Laura Winslow Photography asked, I think she realized a lot of people just missed the sign up, too. So she opened signups again for everyone.

My Santographer, Lindsey of Lorien Studios kept me informed of sending my package, so I knew I was expecting 2 packages from FedEx sometime soon. This morning, I ran out with the girl to pick up the last of the food for Christmas and low and behold, look what was waiting for us at the front door.

 

DSC_3743I was super duper excited to open the packages. Having spent the last two weeks watching everyone post photos of their goodies, I was getting a little antsy. But Lindsey did such a great job… and really, while I know I did a lovely job of wrapping the presents for my giftee, I think next year I will individually wrap each present. I have to admit it was so much fun to open a bunch of gifts.

I had to run one more errand after I received the package, but I immediately made myself a cup of chocolate candy tea with raspberry sugar in my new carafe. Pretty tasty and enjoyable, if I might say so myself…

This was my first time doing something like this and I will most definitely do it again next year. I had a blast shopping for my recipient and receiving my gifts.

Did you participate in any gift exchanges this year?
