You buy all your gifts at the local drug store.
Sorry, all but the first three are kinda lame.
You can’t remember your kid’s names, much less what they want for Christmas.
You don’t mention the NAME of Jesus in your stories.
And I thought the first three were the best ones…
yeah, personally, I like the Twitter one. Very reflective of society…
If you’ve purchased those bullet hole stickers at the local auto shop and put them on the plastic reindeer and sled in your yard display.
If you put out a deer feeder and tree stand in your yard and mark off the surrounding area as the reindeer game playground.
If you think eggnogg is one of the major food groups (personally, yuck!!!)
Yearly pilgrimage to the local McD’s for the Egg Nog milkshakes!
NateDaddy, my DH has you beat. For our first Christmas as man & wife he stopped at the local grocer at 11:30 pm Christmas eve and bought me: A Reese’s PB cup, a giant bottle of the stinkiest lotion e-v-e-r, and a tack’ay calendar.
His gifts: A Rolex watch, a rare wool sweater w/leather elbow patches, a BMW ‘model’ car for his desk, and a giant box of his fav licorice.
Ahhh, yes, etched in my memory…our first Christmas as man & wife.
You do Christmas two days early (open gifts) and go to New York City to see the lights since all the kids are past the Santa age.
You pepper spray the people getting in your way of an xbox display. (really happened on Black Friday this year)
