H.O.T..love that man.

33 presents! I can't remember how many I have, but it's a lot too. It's crazy! No wonder I'm so broke at Christmas time. I've almost got everyone bought for, except my babe. I know what she's getting, I just need to go get it.

Oney, do you put a limit on a person? I have so many little kids to buy for. Between all the little cousins, and a few of her friends it can get really expensive.

The amount of presents under the tree last year, was just crazy! She got sooo much! This year I'm limiting on what I buy her since she gets so much from everyone else. How much do they need? I will say though, she appreciates and loves everything and everything does get played with. But they get caught up in it.

I can't wait to get more white lights up, I put some more around one of my trees yesterday and it looks so nice. More will go up today and I'll plug them in soon, they just look so nice and I keep them up all year because they're white.

I'm just thinking of many Christmas's ago when the son and heir banged on and on about getting a pirate Playmobile island for 3 months. Christmas Eve and it's all wrapped up under the tree, he's bathed and I'm just tucking him into bed when he comes out..........

'I'm can't wait to get that racing car set I asked for'

He'd only written to Santa at school and not told us he'd sent a letter. I could have wept.

Ooh I've gone all sentimental and gooey.

There was the Christmas that my Dad made a dolls house and my mum decorated it, with bits of scraps of carpet and wallpaper left over from their house. The daughter was overwhelmed and kept asking how did Santa know what Grandma and Grandad's house look like cos the didn't have little children. I got this big lump in me throat.
