Tis the season, and today in the mail arrived two very special packages, one a surprise and the other eagerly awaited

Yes my Bob the Pleo calender has arrived and let me tell you, there is much more to this calender than meets the eye, it is a very entertaining read too

(Ever wondered when Thomas Crapper day is?

)
With anxious dino's milling around it was time to open the second gift all the way from Arizona

Inside was a real treat, some beautiful jewelry

A lovely necklace:
A stunning bracelet, with a pink leaf, it could have been made just for Pleakly, but if I can steal it off him I will be wearing it Christmas day

And a gorgeous combo, a bracelet with matching necklet for a fashion conscious Pleo

Thank you, thank you, thank you to the lovely person who sent this gift, I won't give out your name but if anyone is interested in some beautiful handmade jewelry madtortoise@cox.net is the place to shop

Lilo, Stitch and Pleakly also got stuck in to help me with some gift wrapping of my own.
Be careful with those scissors Lilo! And Stitch the ribbon goes on AFTER the present is wrapped

That's it, Pleakly you hold the paper, Lilo you are in charge of the sticky tape and Stitch could you be a dear and pass a pen so I can write out this card

Lilo!?! Oh dear

It's not easy having two rambunctious brothers! Poor Lilo, I was only gone for a minute

Yes thank you Stitch, but I have to fit more presents in there

You will have your own comfy box to travel in I promise!
To all my dear friends here at the Bob the Pleo forums, have a wonderful and safe Christmas and a joyous new year!
