Tomorrow Lilly and I plan on putting our yearly ginger bread house together. I have been doing this every year of her life. This year I believe she will be able to eat any candy she wants off the house:) She did get into the kit this year. So we are missing a leg now on one of the gingerbread men. It's just one of those little things I always dreamed of doing with my little girl when I was growing up...I love starting and continuing traditions of our own. I really hope when she grows up she will look back and know how much I loved her...just loved spending time with her. Maybe she will make gingerbread houses with her children and remember our little times together.
Barry got his Christmas present in yesterday!!! I ordered him a book from the sale An encouraging word had going on around Thanksgiving. Well, I let it come in his name..sense my mail gets mixed up with a neighbor with the same first name. He opened it on accident. He was really excited about it and I will blog more on what book I got him. He couldn't wait to read it.
FREEBIES
- Free sample of kleenex with lotion. You do not need a Sam's club card to apply for sample.http://www.samsclubmemberservices.com/Events/Kleenex_LotionSample.aspx. Allow four weeks.
- Free 8x10 from walgreens with code: FREEGIFT. Only good through 12/20/08. http://photo2.walgreens.com/. You do have to pay shipping charges. I would go through the process and find out how much shipping is. Then before you submit call your local Walgreens and see how much they charge in store. It may not be worth it with shipping.
- When you request a copy of this catalog you get six free greeting cards http://prudent1.gallerycollection.com/SampleRequest/. I did the all occasion cards. My brother can find anything that any store throws out. Well, he went to the dollar general and stumbled on bags and bags of greeting cards last year. He gave them to my Mom...who gave two bags to me:) So I always have Happy birthday or anniversary cards on hand now. I have even used my scrap booking supplies and turned them into other cards I needed. So just think if you get a card for one occasion...use some of your scrap booking supplies to turn it into something different:) I still have not figured out why they throw perfectly great stuff in the trash instead of donating it to the local thrift stores.
- You can receive a free DVD here http://www.familytv.com/FamilyHome.aspx? ...you may have to copy and paste with the question mark in the link. They will call you about the DVD so a valid phone number is a must. They sell edited versions of movies that are safe to watch for the whole family.
- Free templates if you plan to make your own Christmas cards this year http://www.office.xerox.com/small-business-templates/greeting-cards/holidays/enca.html
