Its the time of year when almost everyday a new toy catalog arrives.
When you have three young children these advertisements put a parent in a Catch 22 situation.
The catalogs themselves keep the kids relatively busy and quiet for at least 15 mins.
But then for at least days after the arrival of the latest and greatest
one must hear about all the wonderful things within it.
To curb the enthusiasm and make the Christmas spirit sparkle in our kids
we decided it was time to start working on their "lists".
While I was out one night last week
Mike took the reindeer by the horns and started the list making process.
How did it go?
Especially with three kids who cannot write more than basic sight words?
No...you are not seeing double.
That is the true amount of post-it flags.
I think if post-it flagging hit the X-games
Amelia and Natalie have a chance for top honors in
Extreme Flagging!
Most flags where found on pages such as this.
No surprise there.
Others branched out a bit while still sticking to a more feminine theme.
Now here Natalie strays from the norm in hopes of a new fishing pole.
Interesting since my Dad bought her a princess one two years ago.
Christmas lights, Nat?
After seeing this I found out on one of our many commutes
that the girls think the white lights we put on out house
are "BORING" and we should put up "MAGNIFICENT" colored lights.
(note to self....colored lights...no matter the cost)
Ok...seems harmless enough $19.99 for a deer.
The girls like animals...alot.
So I am not surprised by this flag....
until...I read...
48" 3-D Deer Target
Inflatable 3-D deer with hook and target area
How is Santa going to explain the purpose of the
large black circle?
Well I am not sure what to say so I certainly hope he leaves a note!
**this post is dedicated to my friend Chelsea...who needs and deserves a laugh or two.
She's just entered the fight ring with cancer and my money is on her.
love ya- Chels!
