Its christmas TIME!!!
So guys, one thing i havent been doing lately in this thread is sharing stuff about my family and my life. I think it was something everyone seemed to enjoy.
So things are going great for me right now. I am working full time at the comp programmer job and working for Ergopep in my part time. The cool thing about working for ergo is that its fun and its not like work. I never get the amount of job well dones or thank you's i get with ergo at my regular job=-)
So we went christmas shopping tonight for the kids. Lauren buys her daughter presents and i add a few on. I like to pick out special things that her mommy might not get her, me and aj have rockstar taste!!! LMAO!
So we had the kids circle things in the toys r'us wish list catalog and then we compiled a list and went shopping. It was a dizzying array of sights and sounds at the toys r us doorbuster event.
So i fill the cart with toys for tristen ranging from xbox 360, 3ds games, to light strike weapons, rtemote control helicopters some car that goes through water, dirt, and snow, just about every actuon figure in the captain america,iron man and green lantern line. Well i was getting nervous as i approached the register and i had set a limit of $400 on tristen. Well i got 2 $40 gift cards for the video games i bought, but i overshot the $400 and it came out to $750. I got a disapproving look from my better half but she understands.
Now on to my stepdaughter, i picked her up some moxie girl doll head that you can do its hair and makepup(yes its JUST a head), a justin beiber doll with real hair(this one is really for me....shhhhh), and some other things. I dont get the little girl stuff but i love her to death so i try.
What is everyone else doing to handle their shopping for kids or loved ones? I loved to hear about all of you and your families too guys!
