oh yeah...that's a great suggestion! We love C.S. Lewis, I think he would enjoy that too! Does he like Legos? There is a new set that is called the Architect Legos and they have buildings that are landmarks for different states or countries:Big Ben, Tower Bridge, Seattle Space Needle, etc....

I hadn't thought of that. Which is silly, because I probably go to Michaels at least once a week!

Not a Christmas gift, but a nice sale nonetheless:

My 9 year old needs a new set of snow boots this winter, and I simply cannot see a time in the next few days when I'll be able to get her some.

So I just went online to Payless, Amazon, and LandsEnd.

The snow boots I got her at Landsend were originally $49.99, marked won to $34.30. I went online and found a coupon (though I didn't actually apply it, maybe it's automatic???) and it bumped the whold order down to a total of $25.12 including the free shipping.

Here are the boots: http://www.landsend.com/pp/girls-sno...3088_1187.html

And the code was LovewinterPIN 1012.

I got her the waveblue to match her coat.

Thanks! I bought ds a pair of gloves and snow boots and 3 shirts for me for only $100 shipped! That was a great code.

I definitely need to go to the local Christian store and take a look at what they may have! Thanks!

Thanks for the reply! He has read the Chronicles of Narnia but I am not sure about his other books. I haven't seen the Architect Legos and think he would really like it!

Does that sound like a good idea or does anyone have more suggestions?

Books, TV series on DVD, Theatre Tickets, Michaels/Joanns Gift Card, Throw

BJ's had a cute set with a doll, not sure price. I am going to look at Target and Toys R Us to see what I like better.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Saying a prayer for your family today

I got my husband boxers and undershirts, a pair of sunglasses, the Avengers DVD and a Captain America t-shirt with a pair of jeans. His big gift will be from Acamdemy and it will do with "hunting". Maybe a new scope for his rifle.

Can anyone suggest a good flashlight for a toddler? I'd really prefer one with an auto-off feature if possible.
