oh love it!

Well I have a few...

My Mom has the house phones from HELL! They randomly dial numbers you didn't push, hang up on people etc yet she refuses to replace them because they "work" - so I am giving the world the gift of my Mom getting new house phones! lol

Chris (my hubby) has been drooling over a TV for the basement for months, so I stood in line in the rain on Thanksgiving morning and bought him a Sylvania 32" flat screen LCD TV - he better love me lots more now! lol

My little cousin Mason, he'll be 10 the beginning of January, asked Santa for a Crayola Crayon maker. Well "Santa" was out of stock at every retail establishment in the northeast and many places online. Well kick ass cousin Liz found it!!!! AND on sale! AND i want to play with it! lol

I am so excited for Christmas Eve / Day so I can give my family their presents - that's my favorite part of it all!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I'm giving my youngest brother, a most recent "beer connossieur" if you will an individual "keg" of his all time favorite beer.  From NJ to WV the ONLY place that sells the stuff is in Emmaus - so big sister found it and went and got it!  I know he'll be pretty excited!

And for my mom....we are giving her a hand made "gift certificate" if you will - we want a family portrait done of me and bri, my brothers, and my parents.  It should be GREAT and I know my mom will absolutely LOVE it as I think the last time the whole family was professionally photographed was at my wedding over 4 years ago.  She'll be excited, especially that the "boys" are willing to do this!
Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.

I am broke, so I am going to have to put a bow on me, and that's Johnny present. LOL (He's  really getting a pair of Oakley's he's been eyeing up)

My older boys are getting Netbooks. Hence me being broke to shop for Johnny. LOL

Riley wants baby dolls and a "box of frogs". We have no idea what she means. That's what she keeps telling Santa. So I am anxious to see her face when she opens a box full of stuffed animal frogs. LOL

When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila & salt and give me a call!

For the life of us, we cannot figure out why or what she really means. I ask her what kind of frogs? She says a box of green ones! (in a "DUH! Mom", kind of tone!)   I hope she isn't expecting REAL frogs cause that ain't happening! LOL

Of course Santa knows EXACTLY what she means!

Well, here are some things I found looking for "Box of Frogs":

and the probable one that she means:

and i can't for the life of me find it online, but there's also that popular "terrarium" that comes with a tiny frog or two in it.  I know Foster's in Doylestown had them when i was in there the other day. 

Funny, though!  when you solve the puzzle, you have to let us know!
