So: my tokens have arrived!! (I swear Jeff must have bribed a Postal Carrier to get them here this quick) and Lady Myke came over so we could open them together. My daughter begged and pleaded to be allowed to help. Thing is, she's got the same mischievous personality as I do. So I really shouldn't have been surprised when, as we were opening packages, she suddenly shouted, "MOM! A Golden Ticket!!" My heart started racing and my blood pressure went up, and I nearly squealed with delight, before I realized she was just joking! I laughed, and said "good one!" and she laughed back at me. One of those sweet mother-daughter moments... for about 2 seconds. And then she said, "No, really!" and displayed the prize, proudly. A golden ticket. Really. Truly. So, there was indeed a great deal of delighted squealing, and hugs, and my daughter was allowed to pick half a dozen platinums from my collection as a reward for her excellent token-unpacking skills. And yes, we did also get an Ultra-Rare in our 100 packs. I gave it to Lady Myke, since I already had the best token out of the lot! Thanks Jeff and Lori!! Looking forward to seeing everyone again soon ; )
