X-mas Gifts Keep On Arriving In The Mail...

doorbell rings
are you listening?
on the porch
The UPS guy is glistening
a beautiful sight
we're happy alright
doing all our Xmas shopping online...


Kevin & Katie's first gifts are wrapped in gift bags...bought a new one for Kevin's, then remembered all the recycled ones I keep every year...and guess what folks, it's gonna be A Thrifty Little Dailey Xmas.

have ordered Katie's requested Bratz dolls & the new Smackdown vs. Raw game for Kj.
what else to get them? found the coolest pink fur princess style phone with gemstones for Katie, showed the picture in the Seventh Avenue catalog to her...she rolled her eyes. So I threw the catalog away.

Brad loves Halloween, too!

Brad, Angelina, & The Octomom take their kids trick or treating just like the rest of us....

Trick or Treat

wasn't as cold as I'd feared, the girls did finally decide they needed their jackets towards the end, they ran the streets & collected candy galore, then came back here & divvied it up. Robinson's Service had a free supper as usual....the church had Trunk or Treat that included hot cocoa!
