I don't think the character toothbrushes have replacement heads. We just toss them when they're shot.

We got ours from Lands' End. They are the needlepoint stockings with their names embroidered across the top.

This year I think we're going to do red & white lights on the tree. Outside, we have multi-colored.

I don't like baking, I like eating. I hate the mess in the kitchen.

I don't think pets should be given as gifts, but that's just me.

When they are in high school.

I'll be sure to watch!

I imagine the weekend will be better.

Anyone bought this for their kids? I just picked one up yesterday for my soon-to-be 9 year old daughter. Wondering if anyone has it yet. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=4982309

We have a lot of the traditional Christmas specials on dvd now. They're not so special after watching them a zillion times.....

If you don't want to put the tree up right away, you can just set it outside in a bucket of water until you're ready. The cold air combined with the water will keep it fresh.

If I get something I don't like or don't want, I just return or exchange it. That doesn't happen very often, though.

Mine just circle everything in the toy book, lol.

No rituals. I usually do my wrapping in the basement on top of the washer & dryer, only because that's where I store all the presents and the wrapping supplies.

Mine are 6 and (almost) 9 and we do the same thing. They have no concept of how much things cost anyway, but they would notice if one had 5 presents and the other had 10. We just try to get them what they want within reason.

I got the ad in my newspaper this morning.

Thanks, those are on my list!

Nothing in particular that I can think of.

Well, we eat the leftovers for a few days, then I'll probably make some turkey soup out of what's left. I HATE cooking!!

Mine circled everything in the Big Toy Book......so I just buy what I think they would enjoy the most or whatever I want them to have.

We alternate between a star and an angel. I prefer the star.

My thoughts exactly!

No, she doesn't. Sometimes it's nice to have a doll/toy that doesn't require anything but good old-fashioned imagination!

Same here! They grow up too fast as it is....

How about American Eagle Outfitters?
