[dragonfly411]

What did YOU get for Christmas?

I got new boat shoes, a new jacket, cds, movies and a Kitchen Aid FOOD PROCESSOR (Swoon) as well as some cake pans and JULIA CHILD"S COOKBOOK

SO got me the boat shoes, and a gator guy harvey shirt and something else I can''t share on here hehe.

what did YOU get?

 

[monarch64]

Way too much. Seriously, I was overwhelmed by all the gifts I was given this year by my family, employers, friends, and SO. I must have been really, really good all year.

 

[packrat]

Um..nothing so far. JD left a bit ago to run and get me a couple things but the roads are still terrible, so he''s on his way home. I''m getting a white Mad Bomber hat with gray rabbit fur and Wii Sports Resort. Then I''ll be working on some rings with Dana and Sally.

 

[tlh]

The warm and fuzzy feeling of being loved by friends and family.

 

[Londongirl1]

I''ve already bored PSers on other forums about my Christmas pressie from my FI but if I can''t share my happiness about them on PS then where can I?

.....

 

[jewelz617]

What did I get?!
HA! HAHAHA! More like what did my 18 month old daughter get

No, I''m afraid my Christmas days are over. My husband got me a very lovely tourmaline and a LOGR setting I''d been lurking for awhile on ebay. My family basically gave me The Children''s Place and Toys R'' Us wrapped in a box hehe. But honestly the best gift was watching her tear into those presents and say "Ooooooooh TOY!"

My boyfriend doesn't surprise me with presents. He usually goes shopping with me right after any "gift" event and has me pick something out. We went to the stores yesterday (mob scene!) and I picked out some face stuff from Origins as my gift. He then surprised me by stopping by the jewelry store and buying me a nice pair of diamond studs!

They're my first pair of diamond earrings and he lured me in (well, you don't really need to convince me to go into a jewelry store) by saying he was going to look for something for his mom since her birthstone is diamonds!

My parents bought me a washing machine....LOL, just what I always wanted!

 

[Rhea]

From DH:
PJs
Silver bangle bracelet
Tickets to see a show
2 CDs

From ILs (8 of them):
Gift cards to a book shop
Bit of money
Sweater

From my parents:
Nothing yet - still waiting for their package

 

[oobiecoo]

Dh gave me some tall socks to wear with my new wellies and a really pretty red Kate Spade wallet along with some stocking stuffers. We haven''t been to my parents yet but they always go overboard with gifts. I also have something in the mail from his sister who drew my name for the gift exchange.

 

[lyra]

From the kids, a blue-ray player.

From DH a SS key pendant (daughters got the same), and a heavy yg heart pendant with baguette accents. Plus Chanel Allure perfume.

 

[MichelleCarmen]

Well, I always combine my birthday/christmas gifts since the dates are one week apart and I get the gifts mixed up:

REI fleece jacket
Bath robe
Candle holders
$150 (combo from two relatives)
undies

Butterfly shaped cloth jewlery box (from my dh - he put the undies in there along with a butterfly ornament)
snickers bar (b-day gift from kids)

 

[ladypirate]

I got a beautiful star sapphire & diamond ring from my mom--her dad gave it to her and she passed it on to me to use as my "something old" for our wedding in July.

Other fun things:
-Julia Child French Chef DVDs
-New Umbrella
-Red Wellies
-Ticket to Ride Board Game
-A Pair of Pretty Sterling Earrings
-KA Meat Grinder Attachment

Beads for my Pandora bracelet
Chanel perfume and matchy stuff for it
Yoga classes

other stuff can''t remember right now - but it was a nice Christmas. My kids made out like bandits, as usual, so for me, seeing them happy is what it''s all about.

 

[princesss]

Gorgeous leather boots and cash to put towards my new camera
A funny bottle opener from my brother
Salt scrub, a ring, and a poem from my sister
A paella pan, a wine rack, and a bottle of wine from BF

It was a really great year.

 

[étoile]

Yay!!!

 

[gemgirl]

Christmas has been shrinking more and more at our house with every passing year. This year I sent out cards but that was it. No decorating and no gift giving. We had a real "reason for the season" Christmas with no sign of commericalism in sight.

Non-commercialism makes Christmas mighty boring! but hopefully next Christmas we''ll be living in a nicer newer house and we''ll get back into it again.

Sorry to threadjack DF.

Kitcha I want to snuggle with your kitten. What a heartbreaker. He/she looks almost sad in a look at me I''m just a ''ickle wickle kittie wittie''. I want to cuddle that kitten! Please post more pics somewhere.

As for me; I was spoiled rotten by DH and got a CB Pochette, Sonatine, MC Pochette, Damier Illovo and the new Stephen King. I can''t wait to read it!

 

[radiantquest]

DH-
New fluffy towels
2 pair of jeans
alarmclock/digital picture frame. Its pretty cool. I didn''t know they made such a thing
lapdesk
My Sisters Keeper DVD
A very nice organizer book thing

Family-
Gift cards to B&N and the Kitchen Store
Candles
Bath and Body Works stuff
I also got a gift card to Hollister, but traded with my stepdaughter for her Target card

I am quite happy, the only thing that I really needed was the jeans, but I love it all. I think the best gift in the house right now was DSD scrabble game. DH and I play pretty regularly. He thinks he is the winner, but that is because he racks up points with words like hit and gay where I use use turns trading tiles for bigger words.

DHs favorite gift I think was one that he got for himself. A wooden cutting board! Who would have thunk it?

 

[jcrow]

this year, we only exchanged gifts that fit into our stockings + advent calendar. and we said we were going to do a small christmas and take a babymoon instead. well, hub totally surprised me with a spa gift certificate for some prenatal messages and he also got me a cute, small leather coach purse that i can slip into my diaper bag.

 

[E B]

Another new parent here, so this Christmas was (and will be for many years to come) all about the tiny one. Our six-month-old was spoiled silly. He received tons of clothes, books and toys.

DH and I got a long, most-expenses-paid trip to visit our families over the holidays, which was awesome. And we each got a few more smaller things, like gift cards and PJs. Oh, and I got enough cash to buy a pair of small, everyday BGD diamond bezel studs. SO excited to order them!

 

[MakingTheGrade]

I got pregnancy books from the DH (so sweet).
And this sapphire, from my folks. (Kind of matches my avatar pendant)

 

[Burberrygirl]

-new laptop, love it!
-huge quartz JKT ring.
-robe

Working on the photos, I promise

I''ve been saving up for this tsav for a while now. There is a good chance it will end up eventually being a baby ring / push present type of thing.

 

[Shoopy]

I got a bunch of clothes for work, some fashion jewelry, and a bunch of pjs finally-I get asked every year what I want, every year I say pjs, and I never get it!

The best gift though was the look on DD''s face when we opened her first gift. I didn''t expect her to be so expressive. She squealed and threw herself forward to grab the toy. It was fabulously hilarious.

 

[miraclesrule]

SNUGGIE!!!!!

I have wanted the leopard print Snuggie ever since I saw it on Oprah live. It''s not nearly as soft as I thought it would be, and it wasn''t as pretty as the one they brought on Oprah, but...I can''t wait to try it out.

Nintendo Wii Fit Plus and a bunch of techie self charging things, DVD''s, cover contraption and other accessories that I have no idea how to use...yet.

Gift cards.

Book-Freakonomics (which I just read cover to cover on Saturday)

Crockpot

Lucky Bracelet with peace signs from my boss.

Best Present ever....spending it with my Granddaughter.
