I too had a great Christmas!!

DH got me a new lens for my D60, a huge ACOT gift card, and the Expression! Wooohoo! I am stalking AC Moore for the L Letterpress kit so I can get it with the Christmas money I got from my mom.

What lens??? Sounds like fun! That Letterpress kit will be awesome!

I got a Snuggie and its not Gator blue or pepto pink.


Also a new Cricut cart, a couple of books, new clothes from Coldwater Creek. Went to the bookstore today and got more books(including the Pioneer Woman's cookbook).

[jcsmaestra]

Wow! You all got such great gifts!


I got:

a new digi camera, more for intermediate (rather than a beginner as my current one is) - I will pick one out myself so that I get one with the features I really want

a new 22" computer monitor

a new toaster oven

a 4000 image 7" digital photo frame

Michael's gift cards
candles
jewelry

My new lens is the Nikkor AF-S 35mm f/1.8... It is supposed to come in the mail tomorrow or Tuesday and I can't wait to play!!

I wish I could have gotten my sister a Cricut, but she uses mine when we scrap together. I have the regular Cricut, not the Expressions, so you got lucky! I bet you love it! I received a scrapbook and some scrap paper, but everything else was non-scrap-related gifts, perfume, clothes, a waterpik, etc. Had a good Christmas, though.

[SarahA]

My mom cleaned out my entire wishlist from here! That was fun to open!
I also got a bunch of stuff for my new camera, too!

Sounds like there are alot of candle lovers here. I was burning my black amethyst candle from bath and body works all night last night.. I swear it always relaxes me/makes me feel happy when I light my candles.


That's cool that you got Rent for Christmas! I saw that show three times on stage.. Makes me cry everytime.

[handerful]

I got an ATG gun & a M's gift card.

[megamay]

wow some of you really scored! I still have a zoom nikkor lens on my wish list, maybe for my birthday ...

me, I got rock band 2 for the xbox and now I am TOTALLY addicted, and I also got a new rearview mirror for my car with autodimming, direction and temp display because my old one had that and I just can't live without it in my new car.

[kennabeans]

Wow, sounds like we all scored pretty good this year.


I received a new microwave and SCAL 2 from dh.



I received aromatherapy heating pads and a nail kit from DD.



I receveid a $25 Hobby Lobby gift card from MIL.



I receveived a sweatshirt, and a spa night with the ladies from my parents.



At school, I received a variety of neat things from the kids.



Even with the massive blizzard, we had a great Christmas!!!

I wrote a little list for my husband so he could pick off of it. But I think he bought everything on the list. paring knife, levi's jeans, measuring cups, measuring spoons (that don't have the measurements painted on), gc to macy's, and a Cricut Expression! Okay, I only put that on at the last second incase that is what he really wanted to buy me, but really...everything on the list! I love him, and think he's crazy at the same time!!

[writerlady]

It's funny - I wrote a fairly short list... including the link to my wishlist here and very strong suggestions to get GC to ACMoore or Michaels, plus a list of scrappy stuff - and I told him to take the list into one of the stores and show it to one of the ladies working there and she would take him directly to it. Now - both my birthday and Christmas are in December, so the same list was good all month. I did not get anything scrappy related from dh. He got me a new laptop, MarioKart and Need for Speed for the Wii, with a new controller and charger for it. He also got me a couple of movies. My Mom is the only one who gave me something scrap related - a cute storage bag she found that has drawers in it. It's adorable and I love her so much for realizing how important scrapping is in my life!

[PezKat]

Well I got tons of stuff, though nothing scrappy - nothing from DH as we're using gift & bonus $ to buy a laptop (1st time either of us will have owned/used one!). Mostly clothes from MIL, mostly collectibles (a couple new-to-me Wedgewood pieces) or cat things from my folks, and $ from the grandmother & uncle. Oh and Rob Thomas' new CD (which I've been dying to get) from BIL! He shares my musical taste much more than DH, which has always been fun. So that's definitely one of my favorite gifts!

I'm really bummed about a shirt MIL got me though - the background is that they are *not* pet people, and we have 2 cats and no human children and no plans to have human children (i.e. to give them grandkids that are in the same country as them - they have 2 are in Malaysia & 2 in Bosnia!). At one point they didn't even really acknowledge the cats if they were here & saw them. But over the years that has changed & they've bought me some cat decor and a necklace. So, MIL gives me a really nice sweatshirt this year that says "Cats are Family Too" - ! It's size M, looks ok when I hold it up, so I wash it. Changed into it when I got home from work today and it barely fits! As in too small to wear over a turtleneck and the arms are a tad short (though I usually push them up to 3/4 anyway). I'm so bummed, I can't exchange it & now I won't be able to wear it much & definitely won't be able to put it in the dryer for long at all.

[allysonc]

Aww that's a bummer about the shirt.

[letumom]

Pez - bummer about the shirt. Maybe could you check the label, and find it online, then get it in "L"?

[scrappie_stacie]

I got lots of stuff for the house... pannini press, new sheets, blanket, electric skillet, crockpot server thing, but my favorite gift is my $50 ACOT Gift Certificate from my BIL! I feel it burning a hole in my pocket right now... LOL!

[AlwaysHappy]

Pez, I'm sorry about your shirt. That's a bummer. Sounds like it was really cute.

I didn't get anything scrappy, which is how I like it, because I'm too picky. LOL DH and I don't exchange gifts - we usually get something we want for the house. We don't know yet what we're getting. LOL My 10yo DS got me a Target GC (he knows what I like!). I got some nice things from DH's family, including a cute shirt from Ann Taylor Loft, although it doesn't quite fit right.
