What did SANTA bring YOU this year????

Published

Merry Christmas everyone..... Just thought I would poke around and see what others got this year. I got my christmas wish, as I have been hinting for an engagement ring for over 2 years now. The kids, they got all sorts of neat stuff, and the dog...... He loves the bones!! Well, see ya around, and love to hear from you all!!!!

Happy Christmas!!!!

Wow! I am soo jealous. I guess if you don't ask for things, you don't get them. Actually, our pipe in our house broke Sunday morning. Our entire house/carpeting/floors flooded. So on Christmas Eve and Christmas we have all our flooring taken out and about 30 loud, obnoxious dehumidifiers running in our house, so we spent monday, tuesday, wednesday, and tonight in hotels which needless to say, took up our christmas money. Therefore, we promised the kids a late christmas when the insurance reimburses us. My mom did send some gifts over so we did get to open a few gifts for christmas. I am grateful the kids are taking it so well. That is my only concern that the kids didn't have a good christmas....In a Hotel for goodness sake. Our nicely decorated tree spent christmas alone in our house.

On the bright side, we get a partially remodeled house for free!!!

There is always next year.

Merry Christmas everyone!!

I did reeeaaallyyyy good this year. A mini discman (I am still yet to figure out all the gizmos and gadgets on it), 2 music DVD's, clothes, a flashing mobile phone cover (flashes when the phone rings), bag (no excuses now I have to carry my own belongings), chocolate money, Footlocker gift voucher and $4 (scratchy ticket) last 2 item from Judy (Grandma).

Plus the time spent with my family: played in the pool with my 6yo & 10yo cousin and their little cousin, then went on our scooters around the block (that was my kj burning exercise for the day :chuckle, played on the PS2 with 10yo cousin. Left at 6:15pm and had Christmas dinner with the aunt, Mum's mother and older cousins. Love em' all :).

(told you I did really good this year/)

Man, I made out like a BANDIT this year:

- gift cards to Best Buy, Wal-Mart, and Books-A-Million

- "The Stone Cold Truth" (Stone Cold Steve Austin's autobiography)

- 3 games for my Playstation 2 (Hulk, Batman: Vengeance, and Smackdown: Here Comes The Pain)

- the 2nd season of Dawson's Creek on DVD

- a new lightweight jacket (something I've needed for quite a while)

- 3 new lightweight sweaters for work

Christmas is always a HUGE deal for my family. We have a great time and get each other lots of presents. We're pretty frugal most of the year, but for Christmas, we let loose and have a blast. We have SUCH a great time.

I got a new coffee pot! The great Hamilton Beach Brewing Station. It's the one the coffee stays up and you put your cup under to dispense. I been wanting one since the day they came out!

I got the Cuisinart Grind & Brew - programmable, and it grinds the beans & brews 'em all by itself! :D

So this morning when we got up, there was fresh brewed coffee waiting for us. Heavenly!

I did pretty good,

it was our first married christmass, and I actually got off for the holidays (thats one of the good things about being somebody who only works on set days of the week (in my case a double saturday and then monday and tuesday 10-6). So being able to be with my wife was very nice. We got to spend Christmass eve with my parents, and Christmass day with hers. We got lots of little things, a nice big smoothie maker, I got a Littman Classis II S.E.. It was a nice Holiday
