Secret Santa Sign-ups

Got this from my friend's blog. I am already signed up and want to share:

OK - it's time for details about the Secret Santa.

If you're interested, this is how it's going down...

Answer the questions below and then e-mail me. We are going to draw names and you'll be assigned a person to be a Secret Santa to. This is different from a swap that way. No partners and you won't know who sent your gift.

The gifts don't have to be extravagant and don't stress about what to get. We're keeping the spending limit to $15 bucks and under. Homemade is always great! You can be creative and put a few little items in a stocking or buy/make 1 item that will spread a little Christmas cheer. If you are ok with sending a gift to someone out of state, please let me know that too.

The deadline is, of course, Christmas unless you'll be mailing it then you'll want to get it out earlier.

Please answer the questions that would be most helpful to the person who will be your Secret Santa:

This postcard is almost scary. I'm not sure how the turkey would react but all that I can think of is how a goose would go after the food and how geese bite, and look at how sharp that turkey's beak is.

Run little girl, run!

Past Week

We got to go hang out at the park with Letisha, Nickolas, & Brynn on our indian summer days this past week.

I wrapped our first batches of Christmas presents for this season. I am so excited to have this reminder of this coming Christmas season.

20 year Anniversary

(From Fox News)

This picture was taken on Nov. 12, 1989, 3 days after travel restrictions were lifted by East Germany's government. I was 5 years old and lived in Germany at the time. I don't have too many memories from this age but I distinctly remember riding on a train with my family and visiting the Berlin Wall. We had a hammer or two and took some pieces of the Berlin Wall away with us.

I remember my Mom telling me how her and my dad, who was in the Air Force, took a train to East Germany when the wall was still up. I don't really remember why exactly but I do think that she said she visited a basket factory.

Frosty

I love the look of ice and the designs in it. The other morning we looked out and saw the frost on the grass and the gorgeous ice. I had to share.
