Favorite BIL of Angel Madi and favorite SIL of ours, always gives me a nice wish list from Cabela's for his bday and Christmas. He is a real outdoors man. Items I chose were a big gong target practice thingie which arrived last week and 2 smaller items.
Last Monday night we received a huge Cabelas box via Fed Ex. They rang the bell but were gone before we got there. I knew it wasn't mine 'cause I didn't order anything the size of a kitchen table. Anyway after a long conversation (30 min. conversation) w /Cabelas they are having Fed Ex come for it. It was addressed to me and had my order number on it. But as she found out when checking the order it was not mine.
The Lady asked me to open it to look for a packing slip. It took both of us to get the box opened. Lo and behold it contained 4 turkey decoys from Dave smith Decoys. You might have heard us gobbling uncontrollably. Below is a photo of Dad of Angel Madi holding the largest of the 4.
And to add to the mystery...some how one of the smaller items I ordered for SIL, was in the box the. For sure a first for us.

TeeHee! Gobble! Gobble! GOBBLE!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a good thing you opened the box so you found one of the gifts for your SIL. Somebody's Christmas turkeys are going to be late to the party. BOL!
ReplyDeleteWow! I would keep those gobblers and set them up in my yard to keep the squirrels away!
ReplyDeleteYikes! You forgot there is one more turkey, the one in their shipping department MOL!
ReplyDeleteWell, that's a story worth retelling every holiday from now on!
ReplyDeleteSomeone messed up! But as I lost my butter...yes, a block of butter....I can't really say much.
ReplyDeleteGood GRIEF! How IN the world did they DO that! And get get you SIL's gift in there too!?!?
ReplyDeleteYIKES! Now that's a REAL mystery if ever there was one - gobble gobble.........
ReplyDeleteHugs, Pam
Oh my goodness what a fun story Cabela's gave you LOL!
ReplyDeleteFor retail and shipping people, this is the crazy-making time of the year, fur sure.
ReplyDeleteI can't sleep knowing there is someone out there without his turkeys.
ReplyDeleteNow that is the funniest story!!! Somebody must have been partying early when they put that order together.

WOW! That's a first! I've gotten the wrong item a time or two - but nothing that big! I've gotten the right item and the wrong packing slip a time or two as well. Four turkey decoys though?
ReplyDeleteOdd things happen around the holidays when it comes to packages. Its mind boggling when a person thinks about the quantity!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanx for visiting. GOBBLE DE GUNK!!!
