Mug Exchange with Stephany

I joined in yet another mug exchange with Stephany who blogs over at Our Hyder Home, previously known as The Midnight Hershey...

and it was a double joy when I opened my package to find not one but TWO fabulous coffee mugs and a hand made coffee sleeve from the amazing Danielle, who blogs over at Sweet Southern Girl. 

I've used them both several times over, thanks lady, you ROCK!!

if you's like to see the mug I mailed to Danielle, check out her blog post HERE.

Mug Swap with Heatherly Loves

I had so much fun with a mug swap last month, I signed up for TWO this month! 

I was given the lovely Rose, who blogs over at A Rosie Sweet Home, as my secret stalker. After reading her sweet love story and checking out her Blog and Pinterest, I knew I had to find something soft, pretty and to match her sweet personality. I forgot to take a picture of her mug before I mailed it, oops!

But this snazzy mug arrived in the mail, holding the surprise of who sent it. Of course, my hubby wanted to stake his claim on it, so I told him Staches off to you if you can snag it first in the morning, hehe! I just love all the different staches and who used to wear them, so cool!

I did get a blog comment asking if I had received my mustache mug, from the wonderful Rose, I didn't realize we had gotten each other! Thanks again, I LOVE it!!

Snail Mail

I know I've blogged about two of these goodies BUT I just LOVE snail mail and all three of these lovelies came all on the same day, it was truly like Christmas!

Thank you ladies again for the wonderful treats!

Do you like getting snail mail?...I used to have a plethora of pen pals but it seems like nowadays people don't take the time to sit and write a personal note. It is quicker to text, phone or email BUT don't let this beautiful tradition die out. Hand written notes are simply sweet and straight from the heart. I'm a sucker for a good long letter.

What are your favorite ways of communicating?

Coffee Mug Swap

I joined in on my very first coffee mug swap last month and here's what I received in the mail yesterday from my secret stalker! It has the BEST quote ever, I love it and can't wait to sip my afternoon cup of pick-me-up out of it! Jeni also sent me the sweetest note to go along with the mug, explaining her reason behind picking this one for me. Isn't she the BOMB?! Go check out her fabbo blog at Two Shades of Lovely

"Be the change you wish to see in the world"

love her handwriting!!!

Thank you Jeni, getting your package totally made my day!

If you want to see everyone's mugs, we will be linking up tomorrow over at

Pointing Up

and

Yellow Umbrella

Here's the mug I sent to my secret stalker, Courtney.
She blogs over at Our Small Moments
and since she's a grad student, I thought this mug was perfect,
filled with Smarties of course to feed her growing brain.
Hope it arrived okay Courtney, I had fun stalking you, your
blog posts are AMAZING and written directly from the heart!
