Now that I have figured out what to get Aaron and have it ordered, paid for and on it's way....BRING IT ON.  :D

I do have to get 8 AA batteries and a memory card for the game cam but I can do that at WalMart.  After I get those few things...I am finished.  ;D

Picked up 10 Chick-Fil-A calendars today.  Stocking stuffers for my kids and part of gifts for the girls of the other family we buy for.  Also got the "My Way" spinning toothbrushes for my younger 4 yesterday at the commissary for stockings.  And a box of fancy schmancy imported liquer cherries for my dad who will appreciate them.  Oh, and some book that tells how to build landmarks of out of Legos for one kid.

Doug is off on Monday and we are going to shop for the boys that day.  The concert tickets that Zac wants also go on sale on Monday so I have to try to get those.  I ordered each of the girls a Vera Bradley backpack yesterday.  I wasn't going to get them because they are very expensive but they were 50% off, came with a free purse and free shipping so I ordered them.  I will give the purse to either Zac or Corey's girlfriend.  I feel a little panicky about the whole situation still and cannot see how I am going to finish on time!!

Almost forgot - the boys both needed sleeping bags so I planned on getting them each one for Christmas.  My MIL got a nearly new one from her sister so one of the boys will get that and Doug and I will only have to pay for one.  Win!!!

I got chenille throw blankets for the girls for 2/$5 and socks for $1/pair. I have already bought them each a sweater, so they're just about done.

I'm all done with DH; I bought him a watch that he had been wanting and it was only $10 so I was happy.

There's still have quite a bit on my list, but little by little I'm getting it done.

Blessings,
Jennie

I got all of the ear warmers knitted today on the knitting machine. I am letting the yarn rest, then will start sewing the seams. Sure glad to have that done. Now back to the drawstring backpacks. I just about have the 5 girls' backpacks done, but still have the 4 boys to do. I have so much fabric in my stash, that I am also thinking about making each of the grandkids a pillowcase in their favorite colors. I'll have to see how my time plays out. We are getting together for our Christmas celebration on Dec. 21st, so I just have 3 weeks from today.  ???
