Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!

I never checked Amazons sales. I am going to have to keep en eye on them this year.

5 years ago (maybe longer) Walmart had a trampoline and net for $200 (I think). We bought it and my kids used it every day until the springs finally started to fall off (3 or 4 years). We bought another trampoline 2 years ago and it is still used at least 3 times a week.

Best- I got my gift early this year. Its 4 round trip tickets to Alaska for me and the kids. I get to spend Christmas with my sister. We haven't spent Christmas together for 11 years (she is military). Worst- pants from DH that were WAY too big.

I don't collect anything. I just have a lot of decorations.

I am a bad cook, I am looking for the frozen pie. I want one so bad. :)

We normally put them up the first week of Dec. but this year I am doing it early.

The best gift I have ever seen was (how do I put it nicely) an adult toy. My MIL hosted a party for her friends from high school and one was a total snob. So the next year a group of girls got together and all bought these and made sure the snob ended up with one in the end (no pun intended).

I don't drink coffee so I have never tried it. I can't wait until stores start stocking pumpkin pie again. Two weeks I wanted to bake one and no one had it (I tried 3 different stores).

The decorations. Everything looks so pretty. I also love the smell of the pine tree and watching my kids open their gifts.

My mom used to have an ENTIRE Chipmunks Christmas Record. She would play it every year while we decorated our tree until I finally told her they gave me a headache.

Thanx for the links. We are traveling for the first time this Christmas and are looking for very inexpencive gifts to give (the plane tickets were a lot).

Mary Did You Know and Breath Of Heaven. I love them all but those are my favs.

Is it too late to join? I sent you a PM.

I also spend WAY too much time wrapping. I pick paper that matches my tree (after all, I have to look at it for a month) and each kid/ family gets there own paper. This way I just have to look at the wrapping paper to know who the present is for. Then I like to go all out with the ribbons and bows, often making my own bows. I think I also need therapy.
