Neighbor gifts...

Mia helped me do our neighbor gifts this year. We were trying to figure out what to send and since I am trying to avoid sweets, I wanted to do the same for my neighbors. I asked Mia what we should give and she said, "Bandaids." So that is what we did. I found cute first aid kits and mini hand sanitizer at the dollar store and attached half of the following tag to them. It was fun.



Some of the fun things we got:

An umbrella (we have needed it so badly here!!! Seriously!)

Dish towels

Lots of gum and mints from a family named Wrigley

Pancake mix

Hot cocoa mix



And my favorite....

A CD of a neighbor girl singing Christmas carols....

It's BAAAAAAACK and Sea World Pix

The camera is back, in time for our trip to San Diego for the BYU game. However, after Sea World, the USS Midway and torrential rain....we didn't actually make it to the BYU game, though that was the sole purpose of the trip!! The weather was threatening, and we were exhausted so we just headed up the coast to Balboa Island!!!

BTW: To my Grandview friends---Ashley Lueck had her second baby, a boy named Colton, on Nov 25th. She had another C-section but without the drama of hypertension.
