sounds like you had a nice Christmas. I had my best in years. I received my puppy, Dakota. He is approximately 8 wks old and is a german sheperd/ lab mix. I am new to puppy ownership...didn't know they barked and whined at this age. i think he actually tried howling this morning. He is sitting in my lap right now, but the size of his paws, he is going to be big.
I received 2lg and 4 small candles, a set of 5 different heights candleholders, a scarf, a dog picture holder for a picture of my future son in law's dog. I also received christmas socks., but my fav and most intriging is my puppy.
How long til they recognize their name?

Yep it was a lovely time. :)
Melissa I got her three t shirts and, a set of cosmetic and toiletry bags, all in pink and black, some lip gloss and mascara from avon, a playboy bunny bangle and ring,another braclet from surf n gear she loved, a fifty dollar shopping mall voucher from her dad, it was his xmas bonus so he decided to give it to the kids, she got a billabong bag and rusty wallet from my sister, a pencil case with impulse sprays in it, lip gloss and tweezers from avon from my niece and hubby, and a black and pink rip curl school bag for starting high school next year, she also got lots of boxes of chocolates and twenty dollars cash from her paper run. wasn't she so lucky.
I gave hubby a years subscription to netguide magazine, it is all about computers and includes free disks each time and some three quarter length summer casual trousers.
Melissa gave him two jars of his fav coffee., he got chocolates and smellies and beers from other relatives.
We paid son's registration on his car for six months, which was over a hundred dollars and he got a fifty dollar voucher as well from his dad, he got beers and chocolates and smellies as well.
I think we have all been throughly spoilt rotten, my dad always gives us half a lamb for xmas too.
I am sure i have forgotten some things but that is most of it, but my best present of all is being able to save all the kittens we have and have the mamas spayed, nothing can beat that IMO.
My hubby gave me a golden necklace :) It is a gorgeous one, it weights quite a lot!! He also got me a CD, a book, and tons of kisses :p
My daughter gave me 3 square glass candle holders and a box with square senting candles
My son bought me a DVD !
I am grateful for ALL I got :) :)
My brother got me a memory card for my camera so i can take TONS more pictures.(over 200) but before he got me the card,, i could only take 15-18 pictures(or less. depending on what settings i used) so no more going through and deleting shots off to make room for new shots. :o
and my parents got me some CDs.
a Betta fish(hes a pinkish red yellowis color)
a really cute large galss snow man setting thingy.
it has music,, and when you turn it,, theres a little plastic snowman(the only one thats plastic) has a magnet in it,, and it skates around on a silver surface(to make it look like a pond) its really cute
and a crap load of cand. :D
We were only supposed to get $150, but my mom decided to give us that amount anyway. My step-dad had worked many overtime hours so we had alot of money. This has got to be the most expensive Christmas at our house ever.Quote:

-breeches in the wrong color that don't fit
-edit: I also got a 1 ft. tall dalmatian sculpture wearing a santa hat, a ribbon on his collar, and bells!:D
I talked to my parents and they both agreed that it is stupid to keep chaps that won't last long. We are returning all three of the riding things to try and get breeches that do fit and some zip up field boots instead of the crappy boots and new breeches.
Well, Alden and I bought ourselves a new car for Christmas! New to us anyway...lol. Its a 2004 Chevy Trailblazer and I really like it. We bought an SUV so both the girls could fit comfortably in the back and they do but they seem a bit scared of it :rolleyes: . Tori is a bit timid but I can talk her into jumping up in to it on her own but Katie doesn't seem to like it at all. I have to put her front paws up on it and then lift her back end up...lol...oh what a sight! I'm attaching a pic of it but its not very good. It was rainy out when I took it.
I got lots of goodies from my parents: gold earrings, bracelet, bath and body stuff, a bath robe, candles, nice set of silverware (deparately needed). A few other litte things that I can't think of..lol
Sister and brother-in-law: A Doggy Bone cookbook (love it) and some new nice kitchen gadgets (also needed)
My son and his girlfriend: A $50 gift card for Damon's and a picture frame.
Spoiled by my wonderful friends: doggy pj's, chicken soup for the dog lover's soul, sex and the city season two(dvd), yummy smelling perfume, calendar, doggy apron and oven mitt and an adorable basket.
I know I'm forgetting things but its so hard to remember all of it. It was a good Christmas!
Edit:I also got a portable DVD player
I got a lot more than I expected thats for sure. Usually our family buys for the kids then the adults just pick names so we usually only have one adult gift to buy. This year we didn't pick names, we weren't suppesed to get any gifts for adults, but everyone started feeling bad for everyone. Ended up that we all bought gifts for everyone. lol
a nice home made sweater, I love it
a nice pink sweater
a few picture frames
candles & candle sets
$50 gift card
$25
cute dog decal thing
manicure & pedicure set
couple stuffed animals
door mat that says "wipe your paws"
HUGE box of Nag Champa (I love that stuff)
new incense holder
vibrating dental floss thing (I am obsessed with flossing lol)
oh and I also got a pack of prismacolor watercolor pencils :D
Here is a video of the wooden chicken toy :D It is just soooo amusing!

As I was expecting, I got more presents - a lot, but the most impressive were the diamond earrings :D
Well, a couple of things I can't mention...too embarassed. But, I DID get the coolest thing from my daughter. Ear bags!!! Okay, you're saying, "What the hell are ear bags??" They're like ear muffs without the headband. I hate wearing hats. These are the next best thing. You stuff your ear into the bag and snap it on (they're like the hair clips you you bend down to secure only for ears). These things are so comfortable I walked around with them on inside the house for over a half hour before I realized they were on!
I also got a gift card to Kohl's and a bunch of little things. It was a great Christmas!
