A couple of years ago we were refinancing our mortgage and asked for a little extra money.
At Christmas my family draws names for a gift exchange as we are all on a budget. There is a $50 max. I drew my sisters name.
For some time her front teeth had been decaying (result of some really bad dental work 10 years ago) and she was really self conscious about smiling etc. It was really hurting her self confidence.
I talked it over with my husband and we decided to pay to have 8 veneers done on her teeth. (we'll be paying for it for the next 25 years ;o)
I got a picture of her and used photoshop to make her teeth white and enclosed it in a Christmas card with an explanation of what her gift was. She burst into tears when she read it. It was by far one of the best memories I have and worth every penny!

there have been some situations that the in-regulations have only undeniable forgotten approximately me (or skipped over, yet not forgot.) The worst is my birthday. i've got been married for 18 years, and my mothers and dads have not as quickly as forgotten my spouse's birthday. i'm fortunate if those adult males will come as much as me 2 months later and say "whats up. did not you have a birthday a at a similar time as back?"

Two years ago I bought my sisters and my cousin tickets to Radio City Halls Christmas Spectacular - It was a great night out for us we had dinner, drinks, lots of laughs and made great memories.
December 7, 1996 I got engaged it set the mood for the entire Christmas season. I love Christmas every year is very special for me but that one was extra special!!
Merry Christmas n God Bless!!
