WE HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS CLASSIC CHRISTMAS POST

my Barbie Camper.
It might look like my brother's toy by the way he's posing, but let's be clear...Santa brought that for me - as per my letter and I played with that camper til the cows came home.
My daughter got one last year and I wrote about it (post), and while I know it was on her wish list too - it's fair to say I loved mine way more.
All this to say - it got me thinking and wondering...
"What was the best Christmas present you ever got"?
I thought it would be fun to put that question to some of the good East Coast folks we've covered over the past little while along with some friends of SABS. Have a look...and just click on the 'postcards' to enlarge...enjoy!

Great idea! This allows us to have a peek into the personal/intimate worlds of these well known people. It was nice of them to share.
