Every year my family draws names at Thanksgiving for secret santa on Christmas Eve. We make the gift for our secret santa and everyone always does a wonderful job. This year was no exception. Look what we came up with:
We start out with the youngest so J.J. goes first. He made mom a stepping stone to go outside.
Mom made Raven a purse out of jeans that Raven cut just a bit too short. 😛
Raven decorated Amanda a piggy bank. We call it her Dave bank. 😉
Amanda made me a grocery list that I saw on a DIY site. I fell in love with it and sent it to Jared and he gave Amanda the idea. I LOVE IT!!!
I painted a canvas of Ally’s name to go in her room. Only… if you can’t tell from the picture it’s spelled wrong. Yes, I spelled my own sisters name wrong. I really didn’t think she would notice (you have to know Ally, lol) but she noticed so I’m going to attempt to swing the i around into a y. We will make it work. It’s going above her bed in her new room. 🙂
Ally made Jared a Family R.A.M box. We came up with a weekly bible study type thing to do as a family. R.A.M stands for Reading and Memorization (Scripture memory) We have yet to be organized in this area so this is a start!!! yay! Latigo Family RAM. 🙂
Jared made Johnny a reflection journal. He wrote one question on each page like ‘what age were you when you got your first cell phone’, ‘what was your favorite game to play as a child’ etc… then when he is done with it he can give it to his kids. Pretty cool idea if he fills it out. 🙂
Johnny made J.J. a lego land display. When J.J. builds his legos he doesn’t have to take them apart right away, he can just set them on his shelf. He got lots of legos for Christmas!
