Santa Trot 2009!

Brock's Wish list

Well since my wife put her wish list up I guess I should put mine up. I guess we are supposed to get stuff that is "RE"ed.

"RE" usable 6' ladder

1 day of help from family to "RE" do my front lawn

G's that are "Re"joyceful not just holy like mine

"RE" peat times with my brothers/inlaws, DAD at shooting range

A Christmas to "RE" memeber--2009

Christmas 2009! Our theme this year is

"A Christmas to "RE" member". It's a time to

recycle

reuse

remake

regift

Our poem for the holidays......

Something bottled, something baked

Something old that you re-make.

Hmm....something bottled - be as creative and clever as possible. Bottle of pop, bottle of money $$$ (hee hee), bottle of buttons, years supply with food that is bottled or canned. The list is endless.

Something baked - well that is self explanatory

Something old that you re-make. We can all find items that can be reused, recycled and made into a special gift for a family member. Times are financially tight for everyone so it's time to really get creative!!

Good luck to everyone and have a wonderful Christmas season!!

Overstreet wishlist

I Know that we are doing
"Something bottled, something baked, something old that you re-make"

11) Wood blinds
12) Working Windshield wipers

Michael's list will follow....

I Couldn't Wait

Sorry to be the first one to post folks but I'm already starting my Christmas list and figured I would get everyone else going. This post is for my husband because as a family, we're doing something totally different. You guys can help give Brock hints. So... here is my wish list.

Pictures with Kate Lines

Scrubs (gift certificate would be best)

Hand mixer

Something Harley (sweater, cute hat, actual bike, etc)

Clothes (again, gift card or just take me shopping)

Nursing books (gift card for Barnes & Noble or something)

Apple perfume

Any Nicholas Sparks book

New running shoes

A baby (haha good one huh)

What Mom Really Wants

I'd really love it if you would each write a "Christmas Memory". It could be something funny, something just memorable, something spiritual, or just something you love about Christmas every year! This memory could be from any age. Both husbands and wives could write. It would be a journal writing experience! It will be fun to read all of them.

Yes....that's what I really want this Christmas!

I'm at the age that I don't really want more things....unless I throw 1 or 2 things out to make room for that new thing. I need consumable items OR....just memories.

I love you all! MOM
