New Addition to the Extended OneWorld Family
I received notice yesterday that the OneWorld family has grown by one more. Ben and Loren Fouts welcomed a new baby into the world on December 20th. For those of you who are new, Ben was our data manager for a long time and Loren was a midwife here at OneWorld. Ben still works very closely with Michelle Linbo to help meet our data reporting needs. Their daughter was born on December 20th and her name is Rowan Lane Fouts. Congratulations to Loren and Ben! As babies go, I have to admit, Rowan is pretty cute.

Oscar's Christmas
Oscar would like to report that he had an enjoyable Christmas. The first picture is his annual modeling for our holiday card. Santa apparently recognized that he went through a lot of trouble to get that picture right so he brought Oscar lots of presents on Christmas. The only two that he cares about are Mr. Duck and Baby Rabbit. He guards them very closely and when he does decide to rest he makes sure that they are well guarded so the sneaky cats don't play with his "friends."

Common Holiday Shopping Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
Here is a list of common holiday shopping mistakes and how you can avoid them from Dave Ramsey. Following the items on this list will contribute to your financial wellness.
Make this year different!
Here are the top 10 Holiday shopping mistakes and how you can act differently:
1. Not prioritizing. Instead of getting stressed out with all the parties, baking and shopping, in addition to your normal daily life, set some priorities before you’re bombarded with a million requests. Think about which things are “must do” and which are “would be nice to do.” It’s all right to say no to keep yourself sane. Shopping for gifts is more fun when you’re not completely stressed out.
2. Not using a budget. Before you make a gift list and head to the mall, set aside a reasonable amount of money for gifts. Make a commitment that you won’t add $20 to the fund every week just because you saw something cute that your niece would love. Get budgeting advice here.
3. Using credit cards. Once you have your budget finalized, stay away from credit cards! You will still spend 12-18% more if you use plastic, and you’ll be paying it off come 2009! Doesn’t paying with cash sound more freeing than having a credit card balance looming over your head? You bet.
4. Buying for everyone. Do you really need to buy gifts for every family member and friend you have? That can get overwhelming and expensive for everyone. Talk with them and work toward an agreement to draw names for gifts or donate money to a common cause.
5. Not listening. Listen to the hints your loved ones drop about what they need or want this year. Maybe your Aunt Sally mentioned that she would love someone to help her in the garden, or Cousin Bob keeps losing guitar picks. A thoughtful gift like this will mean a lot.
6. Not having a thought-out list on paper. If you think you can spend time in “Christmas retail world” without getting distracted by all the shiny toys, you’re in for a big surprise! You’ll be more likely to buy impulsively if you do it that way. Write down what each person you’re buying for would like and stick to the list. Stay focused!
7. Not shopping around. “Shopping around” doesn’t mean you have to spend 24 extra hours running from store to store to save 10 cents. Take a look at your gift list and do some comparative price-checking online before you head out into the retail and traffic madness. This will save you money, time and stress!
8. Waiting until the last minute. Procrastination is not the most appealing gift out there. Don’t find yourself stressed out on Christmas Eve just because you didn’t invest a little bit of time to plan.
9. Forgetting to plan for next year. Throughout the next year, look for outrageous sales on things your loved ones will need. If you time the sales just right and clip some coupons, you could land a major discount on something you were going to buy in a few months for a birthday or wedding gift. Remember to have a list and budget for this, too.
10. Forgetting why we celebrate. If this season becomes all about shopping and gifts, you’ve missed the whole point. People—not things—matter.
