christmas lists

Hi Spamily,

BJ and I were talking earlier today about how we can't believe Christmas is just around the corner...We need to start shopping soon, and she asked me for ideas. We thought it would be cool for everyone to edit this post and add their Christmas ideas to the mixture. Just edit the posting and republish it when you're done!

Hey, we need Mumsie and PostalKnight to add to this too this year!
