This year we continued our tradition of celebrating Sint-Nicolaas day on December 5th. We put out our shoes and "St. Nick" came and filled them! My mom is from Holland and so we grew up putting out our shoes on the night of Dec. 5 to find them in morning with presents! It was great because we kind of got 2 Christmases!

I love getting presents for Scott because he is so easy to shop for! Besides that, he gets sooo excited for anything I get him! A couple of months ago we were in a store and we walked past the toothbrushes. Since he wants to be a dentist someday, teeth fascinate him. We saw the Sonicare toothbrushes as well and in passing he said, "some day I want one of these." Of course I noted that in my head and set about finding the best deal for my dollar (I am one that will research for days to find the best model for the best price). I found one, the Sonicare Elite X9500, in a package with 2 handles, 3 brush heads and one charger for almost the same price as one! 

I also found, as I was reading reviews, a website
"Sonicseal" that sells silicon seals that go over the brush base to seal out the water so mold doesn't build up inside the base! It's a great product!! (it's the colored things on our brushes)

Scott was guessing for weeks what he thought I had gotten him (since he's so easy to buy for, he always guesses his presents!), but had no idea! We've been talking about Yoga lately because I want to get us both into it (I think it's a great low impact way to increase flexibility and strengthen necessary muscles!). He thought I'd gotten him a yoga mat, so he wanted to get me one as well. I love it! It's thick and not slippery either. I've been doing yoga on Jen and Lance's Wii Fit, but I'm excited to find a video to do a routine!

EXCELLENT gifts!!
You should take a class. If you just do a video, you'll have a hard time figuring out how to do the poses correctly, and you may hurt yourself. After some classes, you would be okay with a video. Find something at BYU or the YMCA. They're not too expensive, and very much worth it.
how fun.. I want one of those toothbrushes too so you will have to tell me how it works... As soon as my friend stops her personal training sessions we are suppose to be starting the yoga and or pilates classes together.. too bad you didnt live by us we could go together.
