My Favorite Gift of 2009

 My Favorite Gift of 2009

My 6 year old niece picked these notecards out just for me – aren’t they adorable? Definitely my favorite gift of 2009 (and I can say that because Chris’ gift hasn’t arrived yet)

my nephew's Christmas present

My nephew will be 3 years old in February and I had a hard time figuring out what to get him for Christmas this year. Fortunately, he loves everything Thomas the Tank Engine. The best part about his present though was that I wrapped his present 6 times with 3 different papers… it was pretty funny watching him unwrap it…

Sneaky Ways to Update Your Holiday Card List

Update Your Christmas Card List

A couple of sort of sneaky ways to update your holiday card list:

  • You know your friend moved, but you don’t know her new address… but you did go to her house warming party! Go through your evite account and pull addresses from there
  • If you recall the street name but not the house number, look it up on google maps and go to “street view” to get the house numbers
  • Use Facebook to add your friends’ and family members’ children’s names to your list – or to double check spelling (Jayden? Jaiden? Jaden? Jadyn? Jadun??)

By the way, that Christmas card with Santa and the puppies is my all-time favorite. It’s from my dad and he taped this picture on the inside.
