Best gifts for Dads

Here are a few Christmas gifts that I'm sure my

Monday Music Moves Me

I'm linking up again this week with Dolly for

Monday's Music Moves Me.

Join the fun.. and

Merry Christmas!

Meet Me on Monday

(I'm linking up with Java for one of my all time favorite memes!)

Questions:

1. Monday's are a hard reality check that comes too quickly...

2. What is your favorite kind of milkshake?  I'm not a milkshake fan, but I guess I'd have to say my favorite would be strawberry or banana.

3. What monthly bill do you most dislike paying?  I dislike the utility bill.  In our town, the water, electricity, gas, sewage, and garbage are all combined on one massive bill, and it is WAY too much each month!!

4. How many email addresses do you use on a regular basis?  I use two....one for personal emails and the other for school-related emails....

5. What color lights are on your Christmas Tree?  Well when I put our tree up....the lights will be a combo of both colored and clear.  I put clear lights close to the trunk of the tree and then colored lights out on the branches.  This method makes the tree very bright AND colorful at the same time!

Day 4

Show us a Christmas craft or DIY

In Christmases past, my children and I have made all of these handprint Christmas crafts.  I think that it is so fun to look back at our creations and see exactly how small the kids' hands actually were. 

Saturday Centus - Sixteen

(I preface this by saying that I have 16-year-old twin daughters,

and it has been a looooong time since I was sixteen...)

Life was about school, babysitting, home. Such a wonderful time. Wish my girls had those priorities.

"All I want for Christmas is..."


(Link up with me and play along....it will be FUN!!)

All I want for Christmas is for people (especially my children) to realize it is better to give than to receive.  The good feeling you get from giving to those less fortunate and from helping others is unmeasurable. 

This Christmas season, I encourage everyone to give food or money to your local food pantry, purchase gifts for a DSS family, or donate to a recognized charitable organization.
