Countdown to Christmas Thread

[Sprailenes 47]

Yea I used to tear the gifts open just a WEE bit just to see what was inside.

I think she started doing that after she found out I what I was up to.

I hate not knowing.

Last year he hid my gift in the sock drawer, and I found it without even looking for it. This year I admit it... I snooped! I wanted to know what I got so I could tell my mom whether i needed the cake decorating kit or not... yeaaaa thats it.

6 Days Until Christmas

I used one of my own, as this shouldn't magically morph into some kind of buttocks photo. Although the santa hat tattoo and mistletoe really spruced things up.

Cat, what does Boo-urns mean?

boo-urns

Obscure reference to the Simpsons: Monty Burns has just made a speech, and was getting booed out. When he asks his kiss-### assistant if they're booing him, he replies "No, sir...they're saying boo-urns." He then asks the crowd, and they continue to boo him, save for Hans Moleman, who says "Well, I was saying boo-urns."

My brother and I would substitute the thumbs down or boo with boo-urns. Mostly because we're retards.

Do you not watch the simpsons krikit!?

Do you not watch the simpsons krikit!?

I've never watched it in my life. Nor Seinfeld. Nor a bunch of other shows people always talk about. I'm not much of a tv person. Which is kinda weird considering some things. lol

Looks awesome Maeve! Love the spiral tree.

Thanks! It was tricky to make and looks a little sloppy, but give a cool effect

All of your items are so cool Maeve!

Marilyn, maybe this isn't original either, but why aren't you packaging up some of your baking for the adults, in a little tin? Who wouldn't love that?

yeah I had thought of that but seeing as how I plan on bringing the goodies when we go for Christmas at his sister's house it might be a little redundant..

so the hubster informs me today that he wants to get a little something for the adults... he said something like a box of chocolates are something but I don't think that is very original.... do you guys have any ideas?.. it would be something in the 5 dollar range...

I'd head to the Christmas Tree Shop for those kinda things.. they always have super cheap items that I think Man that would make a lovely gift!

OR.. just do DD gift cards (sorry Flames)

it sounds like a cool place but they don't have any in California

I was thinking $5 dollar gifts cards to a coffee shop or something...

I too don't watch the Simpsons, I have seen them by being in the same room while they are on though. Family Guy is another one, However! my Husband used to watch it and that is when I saw stewie, so now I will watch just to see what he is up to.

I have never seen any of the star wars movies either

I would totally love it if someone gave me my own tin of goodies to take home with me because it would mean I wouldn't have to scarf down as many as I could at the festivities!!!
