I'm glad that Kmart has layaway. Used to do WallyWorld, but they discontinued layaway
I think that this maybe the last year that I'm going to do that.
Every year, since Sarah was a baby, we'd put stuff in a basket that she wanted Santa to bring her. We'd then
go and have the people box it up (layaway) and have it sent to Santa. Santa would get it, and if they were bad, he would take something out of it and not bring it for Christmas. I would pitch stuff out of it before I put it in layaway (Mike would take the girls
off to get something to drink or something), because, my girls have NEVER been extremely good during Christmas or any other
time for that matter.
Since Abby is 10, and next year will be going into middle school, I think she will find out the truth next year.
I will still tell them, the minute you stop believing in Santa, that is when you will stop receiving presents.

It's getting harder to get excited now that I have 5 kids to buy for and the same amount of money to buy with. By December I'll be really excited again, I'm sure.

Well my Laney was my present really. I am going to deliberately not watch a few films like Indiana Jones and the Dark Knight so I Can look forward to them. I also have a tradition of saving a couple of Guitar magazines to read until X Mas.
What do you want Rob?

honestly, i dont know. as far as materialistic things go i have no real desires.
i think i would like to get the new epiphone valve senior, but its not out yet
i think i will re-wire my guitars and maybe build an efects pedal too. but thats not a present, thats hard labour

Not much for Christmas to be honest. I do love the weather though (the version I get anyway, LOL). And the break from school is nice as well.

Wel,, I went and put some stuff in layaway. I just hope that the kids will like it. Also, bought some lighted snowflakes to light the path of my walkway. Don't really have much decorations, so that's a start.

Cool!! I went to Yankee Candle Company Flagship Store in Deerfield, MA yesterday and bought a bunch of Christmas candles and jingle bells for the front door. My daughter and I were annoying everyone with the bells as she sang Jingle Bells!!! It was a BLAST!!! I am listening to Martina McBride's Christmas album right now!!!
