Julie's Christmas List

Howdy!

My list:
Books-Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan. It's a "Young Adult" series. I only have #1, so I need #2-#5. 100 Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Maruquez. A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking. Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe.

DVDs: Wizard of Oz, Sound of Music, Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (the old one), Any season of the Office (I don't have any yet), and Season 2, 3, 4, 5 of Scrubs.

Gift Cards: Itunes/Borders/Starbucks

Is that good? I also love Harry Potter for those who didn't know.

Christmas Lists

Bryan - Menards or Home Depot Gift Cards - Nice short and long sleeve shirts - not button down, and comfortable. We're going to be working on finishing the basement... slowly but hopefully surely so the home improvement items will be best.

Nikki - Menards, Walmart, Dress Barn, Kohls, or Best Buy gift cards are always good. Collage photo frame that says "Family" from Kohl's. If you can find one... a count down to Christmas lawn ornament. Can't find one that's larger than the snowman or child putting letter to santa in mailbox. =o\

If we think of more.... we'll post again. haha

Schonarth/Altgilbers are wishing......

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. We are busy making our list and our game plan for Shopping on Friday. Can't wait, but thought we had better make up our own wish list too.
Callie: She wears size 3T, and loves Minnie Mouse, Mickey Mouse and anything to do with the Princesses. If you ask her and its on a commercial it's Mommy I want that. She is taking her first year of dance and loves it so anything to do with dance is also good. She is very much the girly girl and loves "pretty" bows for her hair too.
Jen: She wants it to be May, if that's not possible how about being able to eat and keep it down? (You guessed it they are expecting again and so far she's had alot of all day sickness.) She also likes sweaters size medium, Lotion from Bath and Body or gift cards from Penneys,Kohls, Wal-Mart, Old Navy, Home Depot, Menards.
James: He would like anything Nascar. His favorite team Haas racing, driver Ryan Newman. Gift cards are also good, Home Depot, Lowes, Menards, Walmart, or gas cards and food cards.
Val: I would like a new 11" non stick griddle. Long sleeve tee shirts, sweatshirts, or light weight sweaters size large favorite colors pastels blues and pinks. No greys I look like a cement wall. Remember I do daycare and the kids like it when my shirts have Mickey, Minne, and so on
on the shirts. Gift card are also good. Kohls, Penneys, Target, Walmart.
John: Gift cards from Home Depot, Lowes, Walgreens (he likes shopping there) Flannel shirts. size large.
These are just some ideas but just being together is the best gift of all. Everyone have a safe Thanksgiving and we can't wait to see everyone that can make it to Quincy.

Utah lists

Hi all. Can't believe Thanksgiving is here. Wow. What a fast year. Hannah sent in her first college application--to the University of Washington. Many more to come by January.

Wish lists for us: Dave would like a small food processor, like something you would use for one onion or a handful of nuts, so he doesn't have to get out the big one every time. Or he would like a light or reflective arm band or something to wear when walking in the dark so you can be seen, probably found at a running store.

Hannah would love anything to do with Harry Potter or the Lord of the Rings. She has the books and movies, but t-shirts, etc. would be great. See Julie S. for ideas as she has similar tastes, or should I say passions. iTunes or Barnes and Noble gift cards would also be a big hit.

Carolyn would appreciate any cold-weather running gear and like Dave, would love a reflective light or safety arm band so she can be seen walking home in the dark now that Hannah gets the car most days. I also love Clinique Aramatics Body Smoother lotion and long necklaces.

Mostly we can't wait to see you all. Dave is already choreographing his upcoming week of cooking mania. We have new neighbors and old friends coming over. It will be fantastic. Hope yours is as well.

Sue's Wish List

Wow! Hard to believe that it is almost Thanksgiving!! Hope everyone has plans to enjoy-I will be thinking of each of you and thanking God for such a wonderful family!!! Sara, Chris and Skyler will be here in Olive Branch with me as well as my good friend (and ex-sister in law) Nancy and her daughter Megan.
I will actually be able to go out and shop on Friday-for the first time since I can remember-have to work overnight that night to replenish. Looking forward to being on the other end of the lines!!
As for my list-I really need clothes more than anything! It was great to lose a hundred pounds (yea-I really did!!!) but it plays havoc on the wardrobe!! Sizes are: Sz. 4 or small in Misses. Also always love jewelry, bubble bath, CDs-like to have some Reba, new Taylor Swift, Uncle Kracker. Gift cards for Kohls always work too...
Hope to see some other lists on here soon-hint, hint!
Love and miss you all!!
