I too received a gift yesterday in the mail from the Pollman's. And needless to say, had the most wonderfully raucous laughing fit for about an hour. From the bottom of my heart I thank you for the prized "stuffed animal" that will hang proudly on my tree every year for the rest of my life. And as I look at that little fella, I will always remember the year of the sock monkey. I will always remember that no matter how bad my day may be, I'll always be able to make fun of "HER" and things will be OK. Love you girl! Thanks for the beutiful ornament you made as well as the monkey you bought. I love them both!

You know when we realized how much you wanted one, we did everything in our power to *make it happen*! May we never forget... ;-)

Wow, you guys are the present people, aren't you??? I never knew that Santa lived in Florida. :) Hey, the Dirty Girl line? Part of the inspiration for the future BDIB line of products!

Yep, all that North Pole crap is a bunch of hooey! The real "white Christmas" is the white sand at Clearwater Beach!

FYI: Tommy loved it too. I put it on the tree in the front, but in the mid-lower section. Last night he goes, "No, I like it, let's move it up here!" It's right up top now. Thanks so much! We love it!
