Hmmm... I hadn't really thought about this yet! I'll always take a giftcard or stuff from my wishlist here. Or anything from Lisa Leonard. I already have a few, but more from her wouldn't hurt.

I know THAT one!
Really hard to say - I think we've been extra blessed this year... The one major thing both my boys (and I) want is a Wii - and my mom is going to be taking care of that for us! I've suggested Wii games for the boys from my step-mom and dad...
Also, I finally got my check today for the injuries I sustained in my accident at Easter, so I'm actually getting to buy my biggest wishlist items - a new laptop, a Wishblade and a new camera (or lenses - the old camera's acting up, so we're not sure if it's the body itself, or just the lens), as well as being able to get my husband (with the help of my dad & step-mom) an iPad...

I want all my family gathered for Christmas dinner, safe travels for them on the way here and back home again, nice cold Christmas weather (snow would be wonderful!), the smells and sounds of the season filling my house, and lots of love, smiles, and laughter. If someone just wants to give me a gift, that will be fine, as long as I don't have to wash it, dust it, or find a place to store it. LOL
I want all of my family together this year. and a Gypsy... and peace on earth!
I used to not like asking for things (it always felt selfish or something), but after several years of just letting DH pick stuff out for me (and I mean, he is BAD at it!), I finally started asking...but he still doesn't always listen to me. The last couple of years we haven't even been exchanging much because of money and just haven't been really into it much. But this year since it will be the first without my mom, I don't know how I feel about it. Right now, I think I want to really do it up nice to kind of make up for this horrible year, but I know it's going to be a tough time...my mom loved Christmas. She always did it up big and decorated and cooked up a storm. But if we're just dreaming big here, I'd like a new digital camera (mine just doesn't take very good pictures), a pen tablet (to use instead of a mouse...I think it would help my digi scrapping), a couple of CDs that I've been putting off buying, Rock Band 3 and the Nightlife Expansion for Sims 3 (not that I really have time to play that). And then there is the thing I say just about every year...I would love a clean, totally organized house and more time to do the things I love, because usually I don't get much time for me. But it hasn't ever happened yet...
What do I want for Christmas??? Easy question although probably a weird answer! I am changing scrapbook rooms...moving it to the largest bedroom in the house...problem is I can't do a thing before I paint as there is no way I am doing the painting after I get all my supplies in! So...my Christmas wish is paint and the help to get it done since my dh and I are both disabled! I hope all of your Christmas dreams come true!
I want a safe trip here from and back to Wisconsin for my daughter and family over the holidays. The same in April for other daughter´s wedding here. I always hope and pray for safe trips - and no lost luggage is nice too! The GC for ACOT would be a nice idea too. Since my dh is not much good at choosing gifts, for the last few years I have been suggesting or even buying my own and wrapping it for him to give me - not as much fun as a surprise would be though! However this year because of the wedding I don´t think we will be exchanging gifts.

LOL Brandon, you are one up on me, I have no idea what you all are talking about.

My family gives gift cards. I know it seems boring, but it's what everyone wants. I put it in a decorated bag or case and include it with a handmade item or something else small that makes the gift cute. I want acot's gift cards this year. Hope someone in my family is listening.
Ok, besides a job, I would ask Santa to bring me a new printer. Mine is broken.
So, I can't print out any LO's, or forms, or anything. I have to go next door and use my parents, but they did someting very very aweful to me yesturday and I do not want to talk to them ever again.

Oh yea--these are great for training! I love wearing mine for long runs---though I got lost the first time I used it! LOL I was so thinking that I didn't have to pay attention to wear I turned etc--I had gone and run in a new area--like a 18 miler....soooooo then, I made a wrong turn a street too soon on the way back---of course not paying attention----6 miles later I finally found where I parked the car! LOL
Wouldn't have been soo bad, but I was supposed to be meeting people for lunch that afternoon--needless to say--I was late!

I have one...it's great. I use it to take the kids geocaching, and I also use it on my beltloop to track how much I walk when I go golfing. It's great fun!
I don't really have anyone I exchange gifts with. The kids buy me things, but they don't have much money and I really have everything i need. I always tell the kids scrappy stuff but they dont know what to get and refuse to get gift cards. Ali usually gets me something Tinkerbell or Jim Shore. But I'm bad about coming up with a wish list. The only thing I really want is all my kids together, and God willing, that will happen in January when DS comes home from Korea and I load up everyone to go to Missouri to see eldest DD.

I think that is a great Christmas wish! (I personally LOVE Jim Shore too - but I also quilt!)
Yeah, he's getting pretty homesick. And I did really well until now, but the closer it gets to the time I see him the more I miss him! lolnonnies wrote:Ayla wrote:.

Our family is very low key on the presents. I usually get a book or a scrapping GC from whoever picks my name in the family grab. From my parents, I get a little money which I use for something for the house. This year I want all new towels....big fluffy white ones. My hubby and I plan a trip, so we only give each other stocking stuffers. We spend more time on the fun and games and food than the presents. Of course, the kids are adults now, so it's easier.
If I could have anything, it would be more time.

So far I my list has a Cricut Bag(dust cover to me), just the cheapy at Walmart for $40 would be fine, and an Olympus underwater camera. I try to keep a post it by my pc of everyone so throughout the year I just write down things I come up with for everyone and myself. We have been wanting a new tv in our living room, so we may just get one as our gifts to each other.

I'd love the Cricut Expression, but I don't have any adults to buy me gifts since I broke up with my fiance (only child here; parents deceased). I love the gifts the kids make in school though, and my older dd usually has her grandparents take her shopping to fill up a stocking for me. I don't mind being single, except during the holiday season (not because of the lack of gifts...just because I like to have lots of friends/family over to celebrate and I'm going to miss fiance and especially his five kids and our big gathering).
