    I got stuff,the kids got stuff and brendan got stuff.

    we did our usual present drop at a random house,the kids picked a family on the other side of town,brendan was driving the get-away car,but did not know what we were doing..

    I drank too much peach schapps,slipped on a frozen path and busted my ar$e.

    my 'special needs' dog,(peader) jack knifed into the christmas tree and the whole thing came crashing down.

    my neighbours on the other side of me had a stonking row on christmas eve,we all sat by the wall listening.

    what did I get this christmas,the best laugh I've had in ages,and plenty of stories to be retold in years to come...

    Red, when I read this it lit up my heart. What a very nice and kind thing to do. You have inspired me to do the same. You're a good gal hon! Thanks for that...

    We never know if what we leave is received well or not,we just drop it and go...

    The kids pick a gift each out from under the tree and I pack a bag of grocerys...

    The only people who know we do it are the members on amhd..

    The kids keep it secret,as not to offend anyone they might know.

    To be honest I think its more for us then the other family.

    Giving is what Christmas is all about and you and your family know the real meaning of Christmas. And your children know also. You are doing a fine job.

    Great story! I wish that you were my neighbor and friend in-person. We'd have a really good time!

    Thanks!

    What a great story, I love the idea, hopefully I can keep it in mind till next year:):rolleyes:
    I have also had trees topple except... from kittys climbing up and from just not putting it up right. I had a Bassett that decided it was a outdoor tree:eek: No presents yet under:) Always funny even though precious ornaments were ruined. I started to tie it to the wall:eek:

    Red I would love the present, but I would love the bag of groceries even more!
    We are struggling this holiday season and what you did I am sure would really brighten someone's day.
    Good on you!

    Well, well, I don't know whom to give compliment, every body is talking so sweet, everyone has a great story to share, I'm really touched! I wished I were living in you guys community. I'm living in Malaysia; Church, templars, Christianity Christmas... all these impresses me a lot but I never got the chance to experience them...
