Judy, my mom was speechless when I gave her that gift! I think it was the best gift I've ever given!
I finally got all the presents wrapped today. A couple of nights ago a present appeared for me too! I have no idea what Scott could have gotten me, but I have been hinting about a few things for months lol!

It sounds like you're almost done shopping, Gayle!! I think that Glen and I are going to Joplin this week to finish our shopping. He's wanting to buy some scuba gear so that will be his Christmas plus some clothes. He's so excited about scuba diving.
Gayle and Betsi, I felt like you guys last year with Jaci moved out. We had Christmas with the family early and was alone for Christmas day. It was so hard. I hope you find a way to fill things in so you feel better!! This year will be better for us since we have Dae Lynn and the kids here. |

Mike and I will be alone this year on Christmas day too, but we'll celebrate with my brothers, sil, nieces, nephews, and grand nieces and nephews on Christmas Eve. But it's still nothing like having my own kids and grandkids! Man, I miss my mom and dad, too. They have been gone 5 years, but I still miss them. I'm really not too sad, though. I try to remember that a thankful heart is a happy heart

Thanks Diana...we may just show up, lolol!! Have you ever seen any of the children's videos that are Veggie Tales? They are based on Bible stories and teach life lessons to kids, and they are talking vegetables! They are sooo good and funny. My favorite is about Madame Blueberry.. she thought that buying stuff at the Stuff Mart would make her happy but of course she was wrong. She finally learned "that a thankful heart is a happy heart, I'm glad for what I have, that's an easy place to start!"
The cute little songs in that video just stuck in my head. You should get Karlie one for Christmas!

I still have a few odds and ends to pick up and then start wrapping. Not sure what I want to get, but the guys need a little something more to open on Christmas morning. Sounds like we're all doing pretty well with our shopping.

Hahaha Janet!!!!
Mike brought me my presents to wrap, too! They were in white boxes taped shut. I told him I wasn't wrapping them so he said he would just tie on a bow. Can't wait to see what they look like, lol! The rest he put in bags. Must be a man thing! He wasn't supposed to buy me much, either. I swear the man would spend every cent we had if I'd let him ![]()

So would Gary - sometimes I just want to strangle him!!! LOL! I know he loves to get me things, and I like it too, but not when we've just spent so much money this fall. Oh well, he promised he didn't spend much, so it will be interesting to see what are in the boxes.
