Our contract with Amazon will be complete this week in 50 hours. We have made some great friends here, but from conversations around the lunch table, hitch-itch has set in for all of us.<\/p>\n

Amazon has a couple of fun things planned this week. There will be a \u201cgoodie bag\u201d day on Tuesday, where everyone decorates a paper bag and also brings in small gifts, like a bag of candy or something. At the end of the day you pick up your bag full of treasures. While we are working the managers will be playing Santa Clause filling them from the gifts brought by the associates.<\/p>\n

Here are our bags. Snowmen I know, no surprise there, but I think snowmen are SO CUTE!<\/p>\n

On Wednesday we are having cookie day. Everyone brings in 6 cookies and they are laid out in the break room for everyone to enjoy. Kinda fun!<\/p>\n

We have made our reservations at two parks. The first one is Lake Texcoma in Texas where we will be spending our first Christmas away from home.<\/p>\n

After that we will be moving on down to Lake Tawakoni until mid January, spending New Years here and attending the Dallas Safari Outfitter\u2019s Show.<\/p>\n
