Jezebel's Surprise Advent Package Train

[Momto2Ks]

To answer my own question, i love snowflakes. And my b-day is may 16, and bf is aug 25. Ok one more question? Buddy when do you open presents, on Christmas eve or Christmas morning?

Well- this is tricky with my inlaws we open All gifts on Christmas Eve (think Christmas morning but a day early) and then we do Christmas morning as a family at home. The girls do open one present on Christmas Eve evening-pjs and a story.

In my house the kids can open 1 small gift on the 24th then they have to wait till Christmas morning for the rest.

Fav resturant: Timmies, Starbucks, Boston Pizza, McD's ( Mostly just coffee runs or someplace we can go with the kids. We dont get out alot expecially without them)

My wishlist should be updated on my profile or you can always go through my TL/WL in trade section

We open presents xmas morning

Thing I wanted as a child and never got....lots...we didn't do much for christmas as a child. We would usually get a pair of homemade pjs and a lifesavers book. I always wanted a christmas tree and never got one, not until I moved out of the house and bought my own.

Fav thing I got and still have. my DH bought me a digital camera for our first christmas which I still have and use. But I really think I need a new one. Its not performing up to snuff anymore.

Favorite restaurants: I love japanese ones, german, ect. For big box ones, we will eat at white spot sometimes, Timmys (but mostly for coffee), panagos,

I will work on updating my coupon wishlist.

RSAS.. i can somewhat relate my IL's didn't believe in all the 'fluff' either of xmas they were (are) very religious so the holidays for them were quite focused. when I met hubby he was the BIGGEST scrooge ever. i changed that

I try to but more often then not it does t work out for me. I must try harder. I do like the Big Cook cookbook though

Occasionally - especially if using the slowcooker - always such large recipes! but usually my freezer is too full of stuff already

[Armygirl76]

Favourite restaurants: Dominos Pizza, subway, Tim Hortons and Edo

Thing I always wanted and never got as a kid? Not to sure?

Fav thing I got Probable my fisher Price Record player I played Walk like an Egyptian on that thing incessantly.

So I hope no one mind if I highjack the thread for a second to brag about my running crew a little. These are my girls ever weekday morning they meet me rain or shine they meet me at 0630 to run. When I said that I wanted to run one more Half Marathon before The season ended and we could not find one these wonderful crazy fools encouraged me to just make one. So yesterday in our first snow fall of the year (sideways snow it was awful lol) they joined me to run 21.1 KM a few local people set out little tables with water along the way. We were soaked at the end but loved every minute.

The wonderful lady in the black lulu hat is my friend Kim, When i was at my absolute sickest it was here that encouraged me to start training again. Her and I will be doing our first full Marathon in May in Calgary
The lady in the Pink is Christina in she has lost 30pd in the last 4 mnths and cut 15 mins off her Personal best in this run.
The girl in the purple lulu is Dayna When this girl was posted in to our unit last year she was 60 pds heaver, she could not run 500m and this was her first Half.
And me in the pink hat.

Thanks for listening to my brag

Oh and so this is not tottally off topic Buddy I went shopping for you after and found some neat things, but still waiting until I can go to West Ed

We open our gifts Christmas day... it *has* to be this way... how else would Santa bring me my presents?!?

We don't have many "big chain" resturants here. But, I do like the occasional lunch at Swiss Chalet. Hubby and I have not been to the Mandarin(but we are hoping to go when we are in London this February-a gift card would FORCE us too )

I don't recall a childhood gift I wanted but never received. Except for a castle. I always wanted to live in a castle.

Speaking of castles... my favorite Christmas gift is one my hubby made for me. I'm sure everyone has figured this out by now... but I'm a "girly girl". I like to be spoiled. I don't like to be dirty. Everyone(family, friends, hubby) call me princess(when I'm not being called pumpkin). Soo, my hubby made me a 5ft x 2ft "Princess Sing". It was lighted from behind. The front said "Princess" and had a "cinderella type" horse and carriage. It was BEAUTIFUL. It hung in our old bedroom. When we bought the house.. I decided I didn't want it "up". My favorite gift ever!

yup, that was the story in my house too.


Buddy, your prezzys are all wrapped and packed up in a box! All ready to go to the post office...unless of course I see something you just neeeeeeed before then. Okay, I hope I don't see anything because that box might be a little hard to get into. I like tape.

[new2sc]

I have 20 items for my buddy! Now just waiting to see some Christmas stuff!

Gift I always wanted but never got was a Barbie dream house lol!

[YellowTamborine]

I, like many other little girls, wanted a pony. sadly Santa didn't agree with my backyard stable vision and i had to settle with the "my little pony" or stuffed version. Just not the same.....


My favourite gift was an ornament that my husband bought me after our oldest son was born. It was a little snowman family with a character for each of us with our names on them and it made me cry haha. It started a tradition and now we get a new family one every year awwwwwww
