    looking for diamond studs

    Oh no - I'd call again & get a supervisor, seems like they should be able to make it right.

     

    I just added to cart (earrings & warranty) used code 2SAVNOW for 25% off, earrings came to $87.49 +40. lifetime jewelry care plan + 8.95 ship = $136.44  (personally I'd skip the $40 warranty & just get the $87.49 earrings, seems like a great deal!)

     

    danggit, I hope it works out for you!

    Beautiful watch - would be great for all the young women in your life. Awesome price too! Even though my DD's use their phone for the time, their watch makes a great fashion piece to complete their outfit. Would also make a memorable graduation gift!

    Where to find affordable ornaments to give away?

    in 2012

    Posted

    I went to a service like that when my grandfather passed. They had these really neat ornaments that were made from paper pulp and had flower seeds in them. They were shaped like Angels. The idea was to put them on your tree, then you could plant them.

     

    6 pk $2.39

    Cowboy Boot Sales on Black Friday?

    Posted

    A few black fridays ago, I went to Tractor Supply at opening (5:30 or 6am??) for a door-buster on Ariats for my DD18, I think they were $30 off.

     

    Totally agree with peppysfireball - I'd only go with those 3 brands.

     

    My other DD has Justin...both my giirls actually like Justin best.

    All of the kids get gifts & the adults do an ornament exchange. This year we switched it up & did a gift exchange. $20 limit, can be anything. Only 9 of us participated but it was fun! I think we'll continue as we all have too many ornaments! This year there was a bonus wall-mountable stuffed moose-head (not a real one! plush stuffed!) that I think will make an appearance each year from now on!

     

    Christmas eve night we ordered pizza & had a few cocktails:yup:

    I made an egg/bacon/cheese casserole ahead to bake in the morn. Christmas morn I baked the casserole & monkey bread <<<a tradition! -waited for the "kids" to wake up (23/20/17 y/o) They were all up around 9:30 - opened all the gifts & stockings, cleaned up, ate, chilled.

     

    I made Christmas dinner around 6 - my fam & DD's boyfriend, his sis & their mom.

    Ham, shrimp & cocktail sauce, stuffing, mashed taters, candied sweet taters, gravy, corn, green beans, carrots, peas, rolls. Pumpkin pie/cool whip (still not touched, we were all too full!) Ate, had eggnog & wine. Chilled again, lol!

     

    Today I'm eating Christmas cookies & drinking some lovely coffe my DD bought me. Merry Christmas ya'll!

    Elf on the shelf

    in 2011

    Posted

    This is our fourth year doing it. My kids LOVE it. They each have their own elf now. Our elves get silly sometimes too and do silly things. Last year my youngest son woke up with his underwear hung all over the Christmas tree. We have done snow angels in the kitchen floor with flour. They have also pulled all of the ornaments off of the Christmas tree, went fishing in the toilet (goldfish crackers and home made fishing pole). Last night all 4 elves had a marshmallow fight and their were marshmallows all over the family room floor.

    Love it!!
