Dear Santa, Hi, My name is Brynlee and I am almost 10 years old. I recently moved to Kimberley during the summer and wanted to let you know to come to the new house this time. Be careful though coming down our chimney, daddy keeps the woodstove nice and HOT. Well, anyway, for Christmas this year I would like a video Barbie, a hamster ( a real one), and a FurReal walking dog. Oh, I have 2 younger brothers too!! Matthew is now almost 5 years old and of course he LOVES Thomas the train. He also likes books, so maybe you could send him some hard page books with easy reading. Lucas, my youngest brother was born this year in March. He is almost 9 months
old. And boy is he wanting to learn to crawl soon. He is still little, but he might like baby learning toys, maybe a toy that helps him learn to walk, and clothes. I will leave you some cookies and milk. And some carrots for your reindeer. Have a Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year. Love: Brynlee

A REASON TO SMILE.
Las Vegas & Hawaii Trip How do you tell a child who has been good all year that they won’t get any gift this Christmas? Kids don’t understand things like unemployment and recession. That’s why Dairy Queen is running Angels Anonymous. Bring a smile to an underprivileged child’s face this Christmas. Just take an Angels Anonymous card from the tree in any Dairy Queen store. Buy a suitable gift and return it – unwrapped, with the card – to Dairy Queen before December 22. With a little help from the Salvation Army a lot more kids will have something to smile about on Christmas Eve. Be an angel and do a deed for a child in need.

Dear Santa I hvae been so excited to talk to you. Why? Because everyone loves Santa and it is my FAVOURITE holiday of the year! I am going to talk about how much chores I have been doing. I have been a very busy boy with chopping wood every day ususally? Also I have been cooking, shoveling the driveway and been doing some septic work with Dad. I have been enjoying Liz for a year ever since you gave him to me. He has been very active, but there has been 1 time were he has got really sick. It was not good
- everyone was worried sick! Like I mean everyone was sad and felt bad for him because he couldn’t even open his eyes. It’s like he was in a comma. Santa since I have been such a good boy this year all I am wishing for is hockey cards. Thank you Santa! Say hi to the elves for me, Sincerley, Owen. Merry X-mas!
