  • Here are piccies of the gifts that I have made.
    Each lantern was £1 in the Jan sales and they are filled with a battery candle (4 for £1) and a handful of sweets from a tin of heros £4. Total cost for 10 = £16.50 or £1.65 each.

    The film I had from last year and the decoration is from last year's Christmas crackers
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones that let in the light

    Ive contributed:

    4 adult children £30 each in vouchers(will make a fuss of the 5th 'child' and her family when she comes over to her sisters wedding in May).

    Son in law to be £20

    Mom £20

    Eldest Grandson combined Xmas and birthday vouchers (£50).

    Youngest Grandson up to now £30 but will probably spend a bit more.

    Hubby has spent:

    £25 on his sister and her family.

    He will be taking care of our youngest Xmas gift and combined birthday present.

    About £15 in cards.

    Sounds a lot when you add it all up.:(
