I got a brand new camera, a grill, a pair of coveralls, a new shirt, a singing Santa, a candle, a beautiful red robe, and a pair of house slippers. I loved everything I got. The coveralls will come in handy when I have to go out every morning and every night to take care of my mother. Sometimes it is so cold, so I get cold so easy!
My camera, I am totally in love with, it makes the best pictures, better than my old camera.
Anyway, that is what I got, there is probably more, I just can't think of everything.

Alexa bought me lots of fun presents like an idog, fm transmitter so I can play my MP3 player in my car, family guy volume 3 and some other stuff. I also got gift cards from my sister and her boyfriend so that I can go shopping :D

My main present was a Dell Inspiron laptop, complete with printer, corel paint shop pro and lots of other accessories! We're still working on setting up the wireless internet connection on it, but soon I'll be accessing PT via it! It really is a great present and I'm very grateful for it.
I got quite a few clothes too. I have pictures but I uploaded them to my laptop, so maybe I'll post them another time. Basically I got a pair of Prada ankle-boots, some faith flat shoes, black leggings, one of those long jumpers that's in fashion right now, a complete Pineapple range outfit in brown complete with little wooly hat. :p I also got a really soft dressing gown and slippers!
I got two DVDs, POTC 2 and The Da Vinci Code. I watched The Da Vinci Code on my laptop today and I'm so amazed at how good the screen quality of it is.
Of course, I got loads of chocolate, bath accessories, make-up, books, etc, and £50 cash (a little less than I usually get due to the laptop being expensive ;) ). It was a great Christmas!

I was not expecting anything since I did not have a lot to give, but I ended up being spoiled as always. I love it all. :)
From Husband Andy:
Two dress shirts
A skirt
A pair of jeans with a dragon embossed onto them
Avatar the Last Airbender King Bumi figure
4 Disc Special Edition of Narnia
Evanescence - The Open Door CD
Faux diamond and sapphire earrings (that match my wedding band)
His big gift to me was an Oceanic Systems 39 gal "Chameleon lounge" tank for my two adult male cresteds, along with two Exo-Terra Amapallo plants (one large and one medium) as well as three Exo-Terra Vines (two medium and one fine) and a cool looking two-tiered aquarium rock formation. We emptied out the 20 gal normal aquarium they were using and added their old supplies in the new tank with their new supplies and it looks very jungle like with the new set-up. I've been wanting to upgrade their home for a while and now we did!
Their old tank was 24L x 17H x 12.25W. The new one is 30.25L x 24.75H x 12.5W. A vast size difference to see side by side, and it still fits perfectly on the dresser top the old one sat on. I'll be posting photos in Pet General. :D
