   Good Morning, Merry Xmas!
   Walking along Carlsbad Village Drive my daughter and I out for a gorgeous walk spotted an ornament dangling on a huge aloe plant and were ready to kipe it but decided to leave it, it looked too pretty. We didn’t read the tag. A little further in the walk she spotted another one, very whimsical octopus, somethings up, we then read the tag.
   We informed another walker of the project and she was appreciative, and I think humored by the info as we are, she said she probably wouldn’t have noticed. Wings for me(:
   Great Project, nice addition to our day.

   Good morning and merry Christmas! We found #28. Awesome Leon Redbone nature dude. ALSO #1! Carl Crawl himself. Cam found her own ornament #89 very close to home. And after diligently looking for a special egg, I found #97 in the phone Booth by the the daily news.
   P.S. We found the tag for #80 in a planter on state St with no ornament.
   Thanks Bryan! Another great Christmas morning!

   Woohoo, we found a Bonus Ornament, #100, hung in a little pine tree on the side of a business.. It will be coming home with us to Covington, Louisiana.. We also found #23 – it will be staying with my mom in Oceanside. Beautiful day for ornament hunting! Thank you!

   Thanks, Bryan and fellow crafters. Fun looking for the ornaments. They were all very clever.
   I kept #62- a red ball covered with crystals that sparkled in the sun.

   My family and I found quite a few but left some for others. We found two without numbers and two from previous years. Had a blast. Ready for the next hunt.

    I found #81….while walking the villiage early Christmas morning….he is blue with yellow feather hair with the letters..HT on the back 🙂 Not sure what HT means…might be Hello Trouble 🙂

    After reading my tag I realized that it says one per household……..I see that some of the people logging on are very respectful of this project and the wishes of the people organizing such an amazing event. Merry Christmas to all involved and God bless 🙂

    Went hunting first thing in the morning 8am and found a ton! My fiend found my rainbow first thing (don’t know the #) but he took it then I finally found one to take Nicoles favorite little reindeer that was “crawling” #83. I ran into lots of people and told them to continue the hunt and they were STOKED! Thanks so much everyone for making this village super cool 😉

    Hey, I don’t know how we missed the one behind New Village Arts! I was walking back into the theatre when, surprise – there it was! Such a cute little windblown reindeer, #82! My very first ornament find 🙂

    Hi, my daughter and two nephews (ages 6, 5, 2) had a great time looking for the ornaments on Christmas Day. They kept #18, 88, and one with no tag–metallic yellow ball with a purple feather and orange pipecleaner on top and pink, red, yellow, brown, and orange pipe cleaners twisted into a swirl coming out of the bottom. Such a great idea! Thank you very much.
