Ralph and I bought ourselves a new vacuum cleaner and a new printer (Epson Picture Maker...love it!)

He also got me a pair of flannel-lined blue jeans (who is ready for the dog park?!?) , Michael's Crichton's new book, a Kenny Loggins CD and the CSI game for the computer...an dlots of chocolate!

From his parents we got a card table and chairs, a bottle of mudslides, a cookbook and some money.

From his older brother we got cofee and chocolates.

From his younger brother we got a cappuccino machine.

From my brother we each got a book, and we got two movies (Man from La Mancha and The Cooler) and the soundtrack from The Cooler.

We have not had Christmas with the rest of my family since my parents are in Texas, but we will do that when they get home in Janurary.
