Xmas present exchange?

Has anyone ever organized one?  Maybe it's too late to do one...thought it would be nice since there are lot of regular posters here.

Re: Xmas present exchange?

  • I love the idea conceptually, but in practice I can barely figure out presents for my family!  Plus our budget is tighter than usual this year.  Not that I don't love you guys, but all I have in my bag this year is affection!

  • I was wondering about that as well cause I love all of you ladies but I have to agree with Amy. My love and affection will be my gifts this year. ;)

  • Here is a couple of ideas...

    1) We could do a card exchange - draw/be assigned one name and send a card.

    2)  Or we could each put up a posting say with just our name and everyone say something awesome or nice about that person.

    3) We could draw/be assigned a name and put up a posting about that person.

    I like the card exchange idea. I wish I was in a place to participate in a gift exchange, but I too, will have to give virtual hugs & well wishes. :)Left Hug

  • Hey, here's a thought.

    Each day we pick a Mommy of the Day (or two or three, since time is getting short) and we do a post that anyone can chime in on to say nice things about that person.   We already have a pseudo list put together for the birthdays.  And if you don't know much about someone, maybe it's just a way to wish someone Happy Holidays, etc.

    No fuss, no muss.

    I like this idea too.  How should we start?  I could keep up with the names if no one wants to do it.
