Gift Exchange - drawing results

David and I drew names for everyone tonight. We printed out a list of everyone' names, folded them up and placed them in bowl. We drew at random and below are the results:

You__________ Buys for:
David__________ Jim (Kelli's Dad)
Kelli___________ Beverly (Kelli's Mom)
Al_____________ Kelli
Nid____________ Mish (Kelli's sister)
Carol___________ Ken (Kelli's brother)
Beverly_________ Nid (David's Mom)
Jim____________ Al (David's Dad)
Ken____________ Carol (David's sister)
Mish___________ David

So, there you have it. If you have an Amazon wish list, this is a great way to let people know what you want/need. If not, consider setting one up or you can certainly post your gift ideas on this blog as well.

As a reminder, you should spend no more than $30 on your gift. It can be one gift or multiple gifts that equal $30 or less. Do not worry about stocking stuffers, David and I will take care of those for everyone.

Happy Shopping everyone!
