Re: trip to Charleston with Wizard of O I don't think you should encourage the wizard too much (unless that is objective) as he could end of like the guy at the soup kitchen . Regardless enjoy the trip. And be careful.

I'll have to remember that. As for your friend, I hope he didn't hurt you HORRIBLY. That would make the ring a little less fun, but I still hope you enjoy it.<br /><br />AM: Thanks.

It's car wax, but in several different steps. Supposed to shine the car up like ... ice! It's a little costly, so friend heard me talking about it months ago, knows that I never bought it, and decided to buy it for me. Also the ring came from friend too.... I think more out of guilt than anything else because of something HORRIBLE he recently did.Whine Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09036599717915379094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-35540566481227603682006-12-28T09:26:00.000-05:002006-12-28T09:26:00.000-05:00I echo what Ella meant to say but didn't about The...I echo what Ella meant to say but didn't about The Big O...<br /><br />I love the upside-down picture;-) Aunt Ally is hot!Accidentally Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01869100744451468800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-29950491942783299782006-12-27T18:14:00.000-05:002006-12-27T18:14:00.000-05:00Yay!

S...Love the photos! Your nieces are so adorable. <br /><br />Sounds like you made off good with Xmas present! I love Starbucks cards - though I do notice as some places (e.g. airports) they drinks are more expensive. Hmpf.<br /><br />I got a bunch of gift cards - I need to make a spreadsheet just to keep track which ones I have an how much I have on each card. Oh and some lovely shoes. haha.<br /><br />ps: Notice I did not say anything about a certain friend.ellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04388135445973225989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-86763618305271172742006-12-27T13:20:00.000-05:002006-12-27T13:20:00.000-05:00Lets see..

Most likely, there is some engine damage along with that.<br />The rest of the top of the tree left a few dents on top of her mom's Yukon. She was thrilled about that, lemme tell you.<br />And Whitney's Envoy was parked under the carport, so a branch ripped off the rear wiper and added a few scratches.<br /><br />Had I been in the driveway 30sec sooner, it would have completely cut my 4R in half since it crashed through the fence RIGHT where I would have parked.<br /><br />Not dad's fault, though. As the tree was falling, it splintered on the opposite side and was determined to do a complete 180 and fall in the wrong direction. I've cut down enough trees that I wouldn't have even saw that coming...Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00584354669062073865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-82193999883300191902006-12-27T11:32:00.000-05:002006-12-27T11:32:00.000-05:00I'm glad you had a nice Christmas.

So we celebrated on the 24th. <br />I got a coach purse.. Tiffany's ring.. lots of lotions from BB&BW .. some ZAINO for the car finally... lots of chocolates .. cash... a new watch... and some other odds and ends.<br /><br />Great pics :)Whine Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09036599717915379094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-55001696132330009632006-12-27T11:05:00.000-05:002006-12-27T11:05:00.000-05:00e.b.: It was a great weekend!

And yes, I do love this time of the year.<br /><br />Aaron: I'm glad your truck survived unscathed. Did it mess up Whitney's dad's truck? We had a limb fall in my sister's driveway, but fortunately no one was standing there and no vehicle was there at the time. And my vote is for replacing the drywall...it sounds easier, and I'm all about easy when it comes to home repair (which is probably why I still live in an apartment).Allyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01816929643644946388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-72501777707022485622006-12-27T10:07:00.000-05:002006-12-27T10:07:00.000-05:00Adorable family time pictures, shows like a great ...Adorable family time pictures, shows like a great weekend.

...Oh, stop complaining. You do need a new job. ;)<br /><br />I think it's great that you can spend time with the girls individually. That way you can spoil them each equally. heh<br /><br />Oddly enough, I didn't receive any of the simple (cheap) gifts I requested -- but I did come out like a bandit at Home Depot. That money will be put to good use but won't last long. Maybe I'll completely demolish the master bathroom and replace the drywall with it? hrm..<br /><br />My highlight of the weekend was watching Whitneys dad ALMOST drop a tree on my truck. He hit his truck instead. So I spent the next two hours with the boys cutting up the tree and stacking firewood. Not exactly how I expected to spend the evening with her family, but thats what friends are for.<br /><br />Mom sent me home with ALL KINDS of sugary snacks. I'll be pawning those off on the boys at work.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00584354669062073865noreply@blogger.com
