I laughed so hard that I just had to share. I should have known it was going to be good...the e-mail that this was attached to said "Don't laugh!" Please note that his wishlist includes a variety of item ranging from a DVD to a new house, with a belt and a tractor sprinkled in for good measure. I'm sure this rivals any list Avery will ever make.
In Ned's defense (if a 28-year-old can defend this) he likes to be surprised and always lists MANY possiblities. I pick the items that I like and that also fall in the budget we set. While all of these are things Ned would love, some of these things were included to be comical I'm sure. Santa won't be bringing the Bayou Cottage. We can hardly afford the plans!
I think what Santa really needs to bring is a shirt that says "Go Big or Go Home," because my hopeful husband certainly isn't afraid to dream big!

I LOVE this! It made my day and will be sure to show it to Carl. I always ask him for a list because not only do I need Christmas presents for him but Christmas is also his birthday. I agree with Ned that a Bayou Cottage would be lovely. Maybe Santa will come through for us!
Priceless! This morning, I started "laying" catalogs and magazines around with items circled for Phillip to see, hoping he takes the hint. He found one immediately and said just to go buy it and use it immediately. It was a steam mop from Oreck. Guess that means my cleaning skills need some polishing, or maybe just our floors!
