What did you get for Christmas?


kit_kats_mom wrote: My DH suprised me this year. I got a professional grade digital camera and a set of binoculars with an image stabelizer. We have a lot of wildlife around our house and I love to look at it but the binoculars will make it much easier. And the camera? well, that's just awesome. We've missed quite a few great shots because our current digital camera has a delay of a few seconds. This one is apparently awesome. I'm waiting for the batteries to charge and we will see tongue.gif

Ok, I'm having some pretty major contractions right now so I'm going to go try to lie down for a bit. I"ll post pics of K's christmas later. biggrin.gif

jcc64 replied: Only popping in here to check on you, Cary. Sounds like dh was very good to you this year. And it also sounds like Lauren was polite enough to allow her big sis and mom their Christmas fun, but now she's running out of patience. Let's hope you get the best present of all soon.....

mummy2girls replied: So far from my family i got money from my parents and money from my grandma. As for aron...not sure im going there with jenna later.

MomToMany replied: I got a T-shirt & a couple of sets of PJ's from DH. Nothing romantic, just long-sleeved w/ pants sets.

A&A'smommy replied: so far from dh I got four dvds and two cds... from my parents I got a really cute shirt, a REALLY cute jacket. $200.00, a BUNCH of stuff from my stocking. My brother got me a REALLY cute poncho (which I have been dying for) from old navy and we still have more family to visit...

coasterqueen replied: Dh and I don't exchange presents. My grandma gave me cash and we haven't exchanged with my parents and sister yet.

I'd say the best gift I got was the nice big check my dad gave me for Kylie's college fund. wub.gif He's been doing that every Christmas so far and it means a lot to me that he cares and wants to help out. He gives up a lot all year to save that money. It means a lot to me because he never wanted me to go to college and now he sees the importance of it. wub.gif

MomToJade&Jordan replied: It's sounds like you had a good Christmas Cary. I think the best present of all is going to be coming really soon. wub.gif

Let's see I got all sorts of stuff. DH got me the extended version of LOTR Return of the King. He got me the one that comes with keepsake box of Tiris Menith. It is so cool. He also got me the Classic Stars Wars Movies on DVD and the latest Bon Jovi box set (Which hasn't actually gotten here yet, but he printed out the picture of the box set and gave that to me biggrin.gif ). Rounding off the gifts from him were a really cool electric can opener and a Florida State blanket that kind of feels like one of those mink blankets. Is so soft and so warm.

I mostly got money family, My Mom sent us some Christmas ornaments and the latest salt shakers from Publix ( I know some of you know what I mean. I have the Pilgrims and Santa and Mr.s Claus, apparently there is a new comercial this year) She also sent us a really cute Nativity scene. From my MIL I got a nice little purse that has a make-up bag in it (it came with some make-up as well) I also got some nice comfy Reboks that I can take walks in and some Flroida State stuff. My brothers are late sending there stuff as usual and My BIL got me a Bon Jovi DVD of their Crush Tour. Needless to say I made out like a bandit this year. So did DH and Jade.

5littleladies replied: I got books, books and more books. tongue.gif I asked for them though so that's ok. I also got the game Apples to Apples (highly recommend it), a couple of dvd's, the soundtrack to Lord of the Rings:Return of the king, some candles, a 100$ gift card from Dh to buy myself a new winter coat, a new day planner, some cash, um, I think that's all, and we have another Christmas with family on Saturday. happy.gif

amynicole21 replied: I got a digital photo printer, a diamond bracelet, a Burley bike trailor, a ton of maternity clothes, computer speakers, make-up, gift certificates, etc. It was a pretty great day thumb.gif

Cary, I hope that Lauren is letting you know she's ready to meet everyone!!

kimberley replied: bah humbug j/k lol. i got some silky pj's, some movies, cookies, calendar, some pics, a cool mask jacob made, money, lottery tickets, and an appointment to have our family portrait taken wub.gif i wasn't really expecting anything so i think i did alright blush.gif

Boys r us replied: Welp, I made out pretty good this year!! My main presents for Christmas I got when we went furniture shopping a month ago..but I also got a new ring, silver with an small purple stone(it's thumb ring and I can't really describe it well enough to do justice), a BEAUTIFUL dark tealish green angora sweater with an oversized neck that slides off of my shoulders, a new silver necklace(chain) and a new gold chain..I'd broken both of my favorite chains over the last year..so I was very happy to have new ones so that I could wear some of my good charms and pendents again, a silver bracelet, a charm bracelet that has charms that I can put pictures in, a new cd player tiny boombox for my desk at work, a smoothie machine, a new wolf gang puk circular electric skillet that is really deep that I've been dying for so I could throw out my teflon one(this one is stainless steel), a new set of wine glasses and a bunch of money and gift cards from random family members.
