Bowman kids' lists

Claire
  • softball themed decor for new bedroom including a softball rug (I think she is going with a bright green and yellow color scheme, similar to that of a softball - might also throw in bright orange)
  • statue shaped like a glove that can hold a softball (preferably one that hangs on the wall like a shelf - it will be used to hold the ball that all her NW teammates signed before she moved)
  • Hot Huez Temporary Hair Chalk (as seen on tv: http://www.amazon.com/Huez-Temporary-Hair-Chalk-Seen/dp/B00CZCSU8K)
  • Under Armour moisture-wicking fleece sweat pants in black, size Medium

Mom's Christmas List 2013


  • trunk-sized basket with lid, for decorative storage
  • clothing, size 1X
  • books, materials on raising chickens in the back yard
  • decorative pots and materials to grow herbs on kitchen windowsill
  • small, decorative, water-resistant book-ends (to be used on narrow glass shelf over spa tub). Something like this, although not necessarily exactly this: http://www.amazon.com/Spi-Iron-Birds-Branch-Bookends/dp/B002OJWBMA/ref=sr_1_44?s=furniture&ie=UTF8&qid=1380216311&sr=1-44
  • decorative plate for the front of the car (North Carolina uses only one license plate, mounted on the back. So now I have space for some kind of decorative or "message" plate on the front).

    • What About Bob?
    • Planes, Trains and Automobiles
    • Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

    • Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Henry Fonda, Jimmy Stewart movies
