***It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like CHRISTMAS THREAD*** :xmascand:Since so many here are already talking about and even decorating and getting ready for Christmas,:santa: I thought it would be fun to have a:gbhouse: thread for those of us that want to post what we've done each day to get ready for the Holidays.:xmastree1: ********************************************************************************************************* I'll start: Today I bought a couple of boxes of Little Debbie's Christmas and Holiday Iced Cakes at the grocery store. I wasn't really even in the mood for iced cakes but the boxes were so festive and holiday looking I couldn't resist. I've got them displayed on the kitchen counter. My first online Christmas shopping delivery came today - some things I bought for my son. I even stopped in at Toys R Us just to get a feel for what's popular this season and found the busiest shelves were at the Lalaloopsy Doll display. People were clamoring to get one or more boxes and frustrated because they couldn't find the one their daughter wants. I got so caught up in it I almost bought one! :santasmile: |
2 Attachment(s) I won this on Ebay yesterday. It made made in 1958 by Ideal. The little manger is about 13" long so I guess the little infant is about 8" - at least big enough to see under the tree. Isn't he sweet? This will definitely go under the tree when it arrives. |
Lalaloopsy Doll 2 Attachment(s) Here are a couple of the dolls and they are 13 inches. Aren't they cute? |
I love your baby Jesus. Your like me you love ebay. I collect troll dolls and just won a sweet 18 inch thumbsucker troll and it was really competitive bidding so I was excited! I have bought one Christmas Present and I am going to walmart Saturday and putting my daughters main present in layaway. I already have out one lighted church I won on ebay about a month ago. I love getting the mexican wedding cakes and some other peanut cookie at christmas they are archway cookies. I havent seen them yet though. But they did have the oreos dipped in white chocolate so I got some of those yummy! I am trying to get ready fir thanksgiving. We are only cooking a couple of sides and Im making deviled eggs and peanut butter fudge. The rest we are getting a Thanksgiving dinner from Bob Evans. I usually cook but Im looking forward to a break this year. |

Oh, yes, I love Ebay way too much. Just got a Shirley Temple doll I'd wanted for 20 years on Ebay and a few other things. Just ask Betty of Micah My Love! Sounds like you are a Christmas-holic like many of us. I love all your plans but I like you am not cooking Thanksgiving Dinner this year - am taking a year off! We're bringing in dinner as I will probably be getting home from my hip surgery that day! |
I just updated my Webshots Desktop program and set Webshots as my screensaver. I have so many of their great old Chrismas professional photo-screensavers - now that really puts you in the holiday mood. Changes my wallpaper from one lovely Christmas scene/decoration to another once an hour. |

I just bought my kids a gingerbread train to put together. They love that there is more than just a house or man/woman to make. :) We will put it together this week. I started taking out all of my Christmas decorations. The wreath will be the first thing to be put up. |

I officially started my Christmas shopping....I bought something for the babies!! :rolleyes: |
Stopped by Target today and got a stocking stuffer of 3 Christmas-themed squeaky toys for Tibbe - all blue and white - very Blue Christmas-snowy looking. There is a snowman head, a snowflake and a blue Christmas tree all in blue and white. And VERY squeaky! Tibbe will love them. He loves to high heck anything that he can squeak like crazy. |
Are they plushy or plastic. My guys don't like toys that are plastic. |
