I Can't Believe Already That Christmas Is Coming Around The Corner!!!

It's unbelievable, already??? Christmas??? I was at Kohl's the other week, with my mother and i hear Christmas music in the store... "It's the most wonderful time of the year!" I really do like Christmas, but shopping for the kids, is very complicated, because sometimes they say the clothes are ugly, or they're for grandma's and they always like the shirts that are for $25. If prices go up anymore, my kids might not be getting much, it would be a different story, if i had more money.

Christmas!!!

I cant believe its almost Christmas either! I love shopping but this year Im defiantly going to cut down on what I buy. Buying for four kids plus other people gets pretty expensive.

HI 5littleones

Pretty soon we will be fixing Thanksgiving dinner! I can't believe how fast this whole year has gone by. So thankful that Matt will be home soon safe and sound! I think this Christmas a lot of people will be more frugal, it is hard though with kids, so many cute things out there and of course each one wants something special they would like to have. I am so thankful that Mango is improving, has another blood test Monday and he is eating more now but still unable to pee but a few drops at a time, poor thing!

The trees are all turning now, I love the Fall colors! Hi to Dori and Deeds, I read your comments, I watched the end of the Debate but it seems that Obama was the most effective. I do think McCain got in a few good points but I am a confirmed Democrat and have already sent in my Absentee Ballot! Joe is so happy to get to vote, his first time to be a proud American voter!

Hi Kathleen

Boy, you are a very pretty girl!!!! I have a Kohl's very close to me, they have some nice things but I found them to be a little expensive. The one in Nashville is crowded all the time, the one here in San Jose isn't as busy but it is a big store. The K-Mart used to be there and has a huge parking lot. I love the Christmas music, makes me happy and cry too sometimes, especially when I get homesick.

I just want Christmas ideas

I enjoy the Christmas shopping too, with the music going and especially the sales.  But I'm having trouble getting my kids to give me ideas on what they want.  I think that means they have everything they need and more. 

The only ones I'm not having trouble with are the two youngest grands. 

I got knew pictures so I'm going to try to change my Hellorazi pic to show the new baby this weekend.

How are you? How is your kitty doing?
I can't even think about Christmas yet. I'm taking one holiday at a time. Since I'm spending a lot of time with my grandson these days .so I took him with my auntie amanda to the pumkin farm on Columbus day. Fun Rides, petting zoo, pumkins as far as you can see & pony rides. Just like I used to takes my kids.. round 2!!
It's also apple picking season now!So we're baking.. uh oh the trouble begins.

grandson

You're so lucky to be able to spend alot of time with him. My grandson is going to be visiting me from Nov. 5th to the 12th. I have going to Chucky Cheese and the zoo on my list. Will you or anyone  give me some more ideas? Remember he is only 3.

Me neither.

I was at Shopko the other day, and they really don't have any clothes that i like there, I love Kohl's, they always have whatever i am looking for. Today was very long, just working, and cheering on my niece in volleyball. Which i heard on a radio station...christmas music already!!! Unbelievable! I got a call from my sister Amber today, and she told me that she is going to adopt a little girl named Kessie, so i guess i'm going to a have a niece, which is somewhat exciting. Well, i am going to go to bed, i have to get up at 5:00 and leave the house by 6:45 for volleyball tournaments. Good Night, and God Bless!

Do you have a Kohls

Do you have a Kohls childrens museum near you?It's an interactive museum for kids... all hands on. Parks and playgrounds are always fun too... and the mall... McDonalds playland???They love those! Hope that helps a little. Do your grandkids live out of state? I have quite a few friends who only see their grandkids several time a year because they live far away. It must be hard. They have to get to know you again. Do you have a computer with a camera so you can see each other on line? Isn't modern technology amazing?

Thanks Dori

Ill check it out. My grandson lives in Alaska I live in Washington state. I had a webcam, when I switched from XP to Vista I could no longer use it.

Did you hear Colin Powell

Did you hear Colin Powell endorsing McCain on Meet the Press this morning! I always like Colin Powell and thought he would run for Preasident in 1996. I greatly respect his opinion and he was so right on with his reasons for selecting Barack and not because of race either! I am really excited... I think Obama's going to win, I'm praying he does.. we need him and he's got the right idea on what this country needs. He's just got to hold onto his lead for a few more weeks!
