Last year I had the idea to do a secret santa with other mommy bloggers.
All the presents have been sent according to my knowledge. So here is the list of who was a secret santa to whom:
- Miss K doing her thing ->Maiden to motherhood
- Diaries of a white mother raising a black baby ->I believe in miracles
- Dear Max -> Juggling act of life
- One of the boys -> To love Bella
- Harassed Mom -> Tan32′s Blog
- There is a lionheart and a little prince in our bathtub -> Lettice Family
- I suffer from FMS -> Claire
- Kat’s Spot -> Colour Giggles
- Life unexpected -> Diaries of a white mother raising a black baby
- Life Or Something Like It! -> Cup Cake Mommy
- Lettice Family -> There is a lionheart and a little prince in our bathtub.
- Darling Daughter -> The Meiring Meanderings
- Tan32′s Blog -> Kai and Finn’s blog
- Juggling act of life -> I suffer from FMS
- The Meiring Meanderings -> Tiny Toes
- Memoirs for my munchkins -> Super Mom or not…
- Colour Giggles -> Darling Daughter
- Kai and Finn’s blog -> Life unexpected
- To love Bella -> Miss K doing her thing
- Super Mom… or not -> Memoirs for my munchkins
- Maiden to Motherhood -> One of the boys
- I Believe In Miracles -> Harassed Mom
- Cup Cake Mummy -> Kat’s Spot
- One non-blogger = Claire -> Dear Max
- Me -> Life Or Something Like It!
I had a lot of fun doing this! I learnt some new things about organisation like how not to send one person 2 recipients (luckily it was early on in the sending so I could fix it) and what to do for ‘next’ time round.
Although I am not sure I can do it next time as I may not be in the country (thats for a different post).
I hope every one had as much fun partaking in this as I did. 
What did every one get?

Sad little me didn’t get a gift but I still had fun taking part. Hope you have a great 2012 and that things work out wherever you are moving to. We are emigrating in 2013 so please write about your experience. It would be great to know what we are heading in to.

Had a ball trying to find the perfect gift for Sharon and loved mine from Charlotte. The time she took, the way she personalised it for me, Mark and Emma and how much thought went into it was so appreciated and made me feel very special x

I just love the earings that I got! They are so damn awesome! I wore them everyday over Christmas and Hannes told me I’m weird.
Melinda I had a blast doing your gift. I did not want it just to be 1 thing. I wanted you to have loads of little things that fit together. My favourite was the pegs with the pictures. You have to take a pic once you put it up somewhere (behind toilet door is also okay) Want to see how it looks.

I don’t have mine yet, but I think it arrived after I left on holiday and since I came back I haven’t had time to get to the post office. I hope they don’t send it back!! I didn’t get a slip from them in the post so tomorrow I will take the tracking number and pop through to the post office. Thanks for all the organising, I hope you liked your gift. If you are not sure what to do with the scarf necklace then I will send you a pic on how it is meant to be worn.

I hope it has arrived! Check online as well. http://www.sapo.co.za/. I really liked my gift, thank you. I had thought it could be a belt or scarf, versatile. I would love to see the original way it was meant to be worn too.

I got my gift! I received a lovely photo frame in a kind of scrapbooking style. Gorgeous!!! I will have to put a photo in and take a picture of it.
Thanks for all the organising.

Thanks SO much for organising! My gift was sent to my work PO Box, and as I’ve been on leave for 3 weeks, I obviously don’t have it yet! I’m sure it will be on my desk by the time I get there on Monday!
