  6. Santa always dosn't have to bring the best and coolest stuff, Sometimes he can bring something little too. My oldest son was about 8 when he opened almost all of his presents prior to christmas. He didn't think I would notice that they had been opened. To this day he tells the story of his worst christmas when he wasn't suprised at all. Christmas that year was a big let down down for him and he never tried to do anything like that again. I would chose another present to give your other son from Santa and give him the bat cave from you and your DH.

  22. well with that mind set, then every disable person, every elderly person, or any one who may get shoved and pushed needs to stay home. If you use a cane, walker, wheelchair, have any artificial apendage, over the age of 30 all need to stay home, you might get trampled.
  23. okay I will start tonight
  24. that is a very callous and judgemental statement. I complain I am cold and I never seem to bundle up enough. Not everyone has the luxury of a 2 parent family, Not every one has expendable money that they can blow off trying to get their kids things. Somethimes just sometimes things are not as they appear. My 10 year complains about the cold looking for a Christmas tree, therefor he stays in the car. He would never go Black friday shopping. My other three all started going when they were 10. If I didn't have a husband to watch them and they were little and I need to save money, I would take them with me.
  25. My kids have Nikon's and they love them, my youngest has a Kodak I bought two years ago and she hates it it dosn't do well in low light at all
