Christmas List (Mike version)

Mike — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 15:18:57 +0000

Johanna and I have been telling each other that we need to find time to go Christmas shopping, but before we do that we need to put together Christmas lists of what we want. Normally I am not the type of person to put together a list, it makes me feel needy. But this time around, I thought we could turn this into something a little more fun. So I am posting my list online for all my friends and family to see.

Chances are that none of you are going to buy me anything on here (though I wouldn’t complain… wink wink). But a Christmas list gives you a little glimpse at what makes us tick – the things we enjoy and dream about, what our priorities are, that sort of thing.

Later on I will try and convince Johanna to post hers as well. It might be kind of interesting to see if there is any overlap. But for now…

Mike’s Christmas List (disclaimer: this list is subject to change without notice)

3 (min) white shirts for church
new garments (several)
flat screen hdtv
money to fix the car

Okay okay okay…so it’s been almost a month since the last post on here. Life has been busy. We’ve had a vacation to Pineview Reservoir (and we forgot to take the camera…GAH!) and some really good days at work (any day with a $500 bonus is good). I plan on making a more detailed post tomorrow, but for now, I am obligated to put up some pictures for my siblings.

You see, Mary has taken my advice and stopped sending everyone huge attachments. Instead, she is emailing me the pictures, and I post them on the blog for the family to enjoy at their leisure, without cluttering their inboxes. So a number of these pictures are from her.

In addition, Sam is flying out to Washington DC for his internship, and as part of the trip he is making a stop in Oklahoma to see Sarah and family. Of course, Leah is in the “everyone needs to play princess tea party with me” stage, and Sam is no exception. So there is some real quality stuff on here from his visit to OK.
