Sonya, I hope the showing goes/went well!!! (also I will second or third or whatever the vinegar for the pants)

As for Christmas gifts-I still have a ways to go.  I have gotten for all 9 of my nieces and nephews, but one of my nieces has a birthday in early January, so I need to get something else for her for her birthday.  I also already got something for my mom, Bill's mom from the girls, and we are all chipping in for a big joint gift for Bill's parents.

Done with the girls aside from a big item for Kate-we just can't agree on anything. (Anna is getting a bike)

I have basically nothing for Bill, which sucks.  I haven't found an office chair I like for him yet (high backs are sparse in stores, unfortunately, and I struggle to order one I haven't sat in), and I need a couple of other small things.

I need to take the girls out to each get a gift for Bill and for each other.

Let's see who else...Bill's aunt, his dad from the girls, my dad, and Jaime and another SIL Kristin. (I got suckered back into the gift exchange and that is who we drew, so I get to do all of the shopping.  Joy)

I *think* that might be it for the actual gifts.  I still haven't gotten my cards to mail, so I am waiting on that, and we need to finish decorating, bake cookies and plan Christmas dinner menu.  Ugh.  I am overwhelmed.  And the girls being sick so much more than usual this fall has set me back, plus Bill's travels...I need another 8 hours a day.  If I could figure out a way to not sleep, I could get a lot more done.

Good morning girls!

Let's see i'm done with Hannah and Bryson. I NEED to stay done.

Kent has one lonely 2 pack of boxers and lottery tickets for his stocking so far... I have some work to do there. He wants a PS3 game so I will get that and some more boxers (hey the guy really needs em and practicality is good right? LOL) I was debating maybe a new cologne? I'm actually pretty lost for him at least I still have 15 days right?

I need to get gift cards for my mama, sissy, both brothers (although I might give one the ipod shuffle Kent got for free at work, his broke and I don't know if he's replaced it and we wont use the shuffle, I know it's like a regift but we don't mind stuff like that in my family and it is brand spanking new) I do have little things that I give with the giftcards too, candy and little things like that, magnetic bookmarks for my mama and holiday nail files and a mirror for my sissy and gumballs LOL, just need to get the giftcards. I also am thinking a Bed Bath & Beyond gift card for Kent's mom, we just had one open in our town, and for Kent's dad I have NO clue, what do you buy someone who pretty much has everything and the stuff he would want is buku bucks like telescope stuff? I'll also maybe do some fairytale brownies and a craft from Hannah. Hmmm I think that will just about wrap it up for the fam.

I need to package my swap gift and send it, I think it's done. I think i'll get it out on time for sure!

I need to mail Leah some LPS looking like Monday will be post office day.

After seeing that link April posted about the gift in the soda bottle i'll be putting one of those together for Hannah's kindergarten teacher so i'll need to grab some things for that.

Ok that was really long.

Sonya i'm sorry about the house, that must be really stressful. Fingers crossed for a sale soon!



 Thanks about the house.

I did see your pm but I was on  my ipod and forgot to reply.

I didn't price out sending the calendars, we don't have good online tools for that. Do you want them in boxes or not?

Wait, i just found tools online - what is your zip? You can pm it if you want or edit in a minute.

Never mind about the zip - I think I can mail it in the boxes for around 10 dollars if you don't care how long it takes.

If you want to take the toys out of the boxes that would be great, seems like it would make it much cheaper? Were you able to get the pony one and an LPS one? We don't need the boxes :) My zip is 86303.

 


Out of the boxes, no problem. I'll package it up today and hopefully send it out by weekend.

:)

I did get you both.

I'm should be all done for Braydon. I'd still like to get a couple of things for Kaylin, only because Braydon has so much more. Carter has two things (he won't notice so I don't care), but I still need to pick up a SC gift for him. I'm also trying so hard not to buy Kaylin an AG doll. I got her the brown and red holiday dot AG dress and really want the matching one for the doll, but I really can't justify spending $40 on a dress for a doll, a doll that she doesn't even have yet.

My gifts that needed to be mailed all left yesterday!!! So now I just need to finish the photo calendars for our parents. Then I'd like to get a family picture framed for my aunts and uncles.

I'm on the hunt for chocolate money...the little foil covered chocolate "coins".

WalMart usually has them, but they have "coal" this year---black foil covered lumps of chocolate.

Any ideas? Daniel has been asking for chocolate money since last xmas and he's driving me NUTS!



our target dollar section has them.
