Tell us what you've gotten for Christmas post

[Christi]

I didnt get much this year.  Hubby is deployed to Iraq, he said we will do Christmas in March when he is home on midtour leave, although he did let me buy my mare back that I sold last year.  So I guess I got a big Christmas present.

Heck ya that's a big x-mas present!  :yes:  Nice looking mare.

My daughter bought me a new pair of shipping boots, the kind that go over the hocks n all.  My son wrapped me up one of his toy horses.  Daughter's boyfriend bought me 100# feed and my Dad gave me $50. Oh, and my secret santa sent me a cool box of goodies that I love!!! Thanks gba!  That's everything so now my Annie will have new ship.boots, feed and with the $50 gonna get some new shoes put on!   :! maybe my ex will send child support this month!!!!!!!  that would be best present of all!!!

Congrats Woody's Momma!

I got new tires for my truck from my dad, some sweaters and new jeans, lots of bath stuff, some of those B&BW's wallflowers, socks, cash, gift cards to wally world, and a book.  I guess when Walt gets back from Colorado we will do our gift exchange.  GIFT GIFT GIFT

[Woodys Mama]

did you cry when you opened up the toy?? the other stuff sounds great...I would much rather get stuff you can use instead of something you would hang in the closet forever or give to goodwill...

back to the ring....thanks guys and I am really proud of him. I was kind of expecting it b/c we went and looked at rings a while back and I told him I wanted to be married b4 I graduated (may 08) So the wedding will be between now and may....but I am thinking april 1(my grandfather passed away 1/6/07 and april 1 is his bday) we have to find a house first and he doesnt want to live in Texas,but I dont want to live too far INTO LA b/c of my work. so we still have a lot of bugs to work out...but they are good bugs :ROFL2:

[Doody1]

Yeah, I cried when I opened the toy and there was a really sad little note in the box too. Baiey is 11 and has severe ADHD and is a challenge daily to raise. He realizes when it's too late and knows he has been putting me thru the mill lately. So it was very heart touching for him to take the time and let me know he does love me for all I do for him.

So where you looking at moving in LA?

Hubby got me a Garmin nuvi 200 navigation system for my truck...pretty cool!!!!

We have one in the truck, love it!

[Shelley Millis]

Cool.....it must really come in handy when out of town especially  :look:

[Christi]

Yes, it's really handy.  Besides finding addresses, you can locate places to eat and other neat things.  We still find new things that it does.  It can get you in trouble in the truck at times as far as addresses, sometimes it's wrong.  It's okay if your in a car b/c you can easily turn around, but we have to be careful in the truck.

ETA....the mileage estimator is right on most of the time to.

[Woodys Mama]

He is from reeves,la but I was trying to split the difference between my family and his,so I was thinking starks or Vinton,La...b/c I work in Orange and he works in Sulphur

[Doody1]

I go to Vinton a lot during the quarter horse race meet it's an o.k. town I guess.  There was a really nice tract of land for sale right before you get to the race track on the right last time I was over there.  You might want to check it out.   (((  Send us some pictures of your ring!!!  :cheeze:

[Woodys Mama]

I am waiting on my battery to charge....I took a lot of pics of Josh riding his new saddle yesterday
