Charlie, That is a mighty fine birdhouse! Looks very cool:-)
Posted By: Kratz7 Re: what gifts did ya get???? - December 28th, 2006 at 06:43 AM
Thanks Chenno,

I was very surprised when Uncle Lee presented me with it..... We talked about a new birdhouse over the Summer, but I was supposed to give him dimensions for one. I forgot about it...until Christmas Day.... I hope the birdies come and live in it..... [Linked Image] it even has a garage door, he did a beautiful job building it.

And even an H on the chimney for our last name...how thoughtful [Linked Image] He used aluminum foil for the windows....the birdies should be real happy...lol

Posted By: Dixie Angel Re: what gifts did ya get???? - December 28th, 2006 at 10:37 AM
Well, Santa must have thought I was the perfect little angel, as always. wink

I got a pair of new house-shoes, a t-shirt gown with long sleeves, a polisher for my car (been wanting that for three years), a completed set of the Falconhurst series of books, chocolate covered cherries, CAVS unit (karaoke player for home), a slinky little lingerie set, bath pillow, picture frame, calendar of angels, candles, tabletop water fountain, two garden pictures, "turtles" candy, cards...

I promised Jim that if Santa brought me a polisher that I would keep both of our vehicles waxed. I can't wait for the weather to clear up so I can use it!

A special gift to me was a visit from my son, grandson, and daughter-in-law. Made my Christmas that much brighter...

Triss, there is nothing that can beat the gift of love. I think you and Dan have an abundance of that...

Posted By: ksgardnr Re: what gifts did ya get???? - December 31st, 2006 at 02:02 AM
We go nuts at Christmas!!!But my special gift will make you all laugh. Me & the hubby were talking about stuff we didn't get as a kid that we wanted, then when I open this gift at Christmas, it was an EASY BAKE OVEN!!! I just totally laughed! Isn't that just too sweet?!? I haven't used it yet, but wanted to share my joy with everyone! Also, my son, who is only 6 got me a white gold diamond angel necklace, I definitely had tears then!!! TOO SWEET!!! cool

Well I had a late exchange with 2 of my best friends...one tonight, the other was last night.

Here's what they got me! Except I got a blue sweater too but I have it on right now. smile

[Linked Image]

That plant light thing I wanted from Lowes forever but I was too cheap to buy it, when I decided to go back for it they were all gone! I love it! And fountains are always good! And the welcome to our garden sign is perfect for me!

Birdhouse is cool! Little bags in front have silver earrings in them. And the candles on the left are Longaberger candles....scents are so cool. Tomato leaf, Citrus Sage, and Golden Pear.

The little trellis will be great in a pot on the porch. And the little bike planter in front is cool for on the porch too!

It's like Christmas all over again! laugh Oh and the snowman sled is great too! I love that!
