I'm so excited I can hardly type!! The first Fall Swap gift has safely arrived to its person. Go to Jennifer's blog to see the sweet gift Dolly gave her!
Jennifer, great job posting about this! Good pictures! Great descriptions!
Now let's all hold up our right thumb to the computer screen and say together, "To the gift giver!" Way to go Dolly Mama!

I can't believe my gift was the first to be received. I guess I am on a roll getting things done before the baby comes. It was so fun to do this and even though Thanks Denise for organizing this fall swap. It's def a fun way to start off the season.
So neat! I can't wait to get mine and for Nikki to get hers. Nikki, I hope you like it. NOW I'm nervous.
Im nervous too. I think I really messed up on this fall swap. My gifts are not "fallish". Oh great! Poor Inger, everyone built me up to her and now she may be disappointed. Donna - I CANT WAIT. I am going to do a monster post when I get your gifts. There will be so many staged shots. I will have to have Jenny come over and do a big photo session. Good job Dolly!
Nikki...I wouldn't be dissappointed if it was a leaf...from your yard! Just to be included was soooo fun! (by the way, do you remember Gordon and Dottie Luff?) My mother in law (Dottie) had so many nice things to say about your family! (and I know Rosie Henderson!! I wanted her to save Jordan for my daughter, Shae!!)
Denise, I mailed yours fron California yesterday (and I underestimated the weight!!!UGH..I had to send it the "take a week to get there" way!) Happy Fall! Hope you like your treats!
Inger
Denise, you're like a little hen who is so proud of her chicks! :) Thanks again for spending your time on this...for our benefit! :)
Nikki, I'm starting to worry about my gift too..they're not really FALL themed. Dolly sure put some pressure on us girls! :)
I must have been out of it last night when I was commenting because my comment doesn't really make sense. Donna, the thing is, I didn't have my box overnighted. I had it shipped ground. It arrived really quick and even Leland was shocked how fast it got there. Nikki will probably get hers today.
I am so having bloggers remorse! I hope (hint hint) that there will be another swap at a later date.
Great idea Denise!
i knew there was a reason i didn't participate. after seeing the first set of gifts, ya'll would put me to shame in no time. you girls are WAY too creative. good job! can't wait to see more.
Denise you need to add Robin's gift for Dolly on your sidebar.
Gotcha! I just added Jenius'!
Wait, me confused? I cant find a post about that?
I'm confussed too. Angela has me right? What is this about Robin's gift for Dolly?
Dolly for sure put the pressure on. She was so creative and took her time on it! I am so glad I already sent mine out to Dayna or I would be tempted to do a little more creativity with it.
I was just being a crazy confused blogger. Dolly, I thought the gift ANGELA RICHARDSON gave you was from Angela your fall swapper. Then I couldn't think of her name and so I said "Robin". My bad. (Laughing that I just typed "my bad")!
Denise, my mom is sick she missed the fall swap and loved the idea. She thought your blogola was still private so she hadn't been to MLISWF for a bit but she DEFINITELY wants to do the WINTER/CHRISTMAS one!!!! If you aren't up to hosting it with the babe and all, I surely don't mind but I bet good ole Donnie on the spot would probably be game, too.
Also, can you send me Noel's email if you have it so I can invite her to the ShoutOut. Otherwise, she doesn't know me from ADAM and is going to think my gift is from some crazy stalker. :)
Absolutely! I will send you Noel and Nikki and Jenny's (they are all sisters) email.
Sorry your mom didn't get in on it. She can for sure get in on the Christmas one. That will be a really fun one!
Such a cool idea! I've been on Nikki and Jenny's sites and LOVE what they got. Very cool..
If Denise doesn't host the Christmas swap, I think Nikki mentioned doing something, didn't you Nikki?
Yes! Nikki..do one. I'm SO jealous and now I want to play too.
Hey Denise...UGH!! I don't know when I have been more frustrated..I tried to start a blog...mostly so that I can show my Fall swap when it comes..But, I guess you have to start with the bottom and go up...is that right? How do you move things around? Any words of wisdom to simplify it for me???
Hmmm, Inger. I don't exactly know what you mean about starting at the bottom. Every time you post a new post it should show up at the top of your blog, and older posts below it.
As far as moving things around, are you talking about your pictures you downloaded onto your post? If so you can right click on the picture and while holding the "click" down drag the picture to the bottom right corner of the post box and post box should automatically scroll up. Then while still holding the "click" down go back into your post box and place the picture where you want.
OR you can right click your picture and then copy and paste it to where you want it, remember to go back and delete the original picture.
The blog thing is more or less like a trial and error thing. The more you do it the more you will learn.
Hope this helps. It did take me a few days to get my blog going before I was ready to let people know I had one. Just take your time. No rush!
