I have gotten lots, but mostly money! I loves the money! I have also received a lot of clothes. I am going to open more gifts this morning and then I fly to see Jim to open more presents! YAY PRESENTS!!

JR and Firefly get the best present later, a chance to see each other!
We got a set of Farberware pans! We also got a mini food processor (it's pesto time!), an alarm clock, some ornaments, Hot Fuzz, and Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!
Yes, she was very surprised . . . and happy. I left out the newest one and wrapped it by itself. She opened it first so she was not expecting more books in the big, heavy box. Dad's wife, grandma and her were having fun looking at the books.
Yep, a real honest to goodness toilet! The first step to finishing the basement. Little A and AC are still sleeping. I had to make sure Santy brought Little A her jumpoline this morning. We have to be over to my brother's house by 11:00 today. Merry Christmas everyone enjoy the day!

Santa brought me cash, socks & slippers (I ask for these every year because I don't like shopping for them myself), some games, a few DVD's including Weird Al Yankovics video hits, the Eagles farewell tour and season two of Saturday Night Live, and then some odds and ends.
Like MZ said, the BEST gift of all is coming in at 7:23 when Jennifer lands in Milwaukee again
Sparky, you're the first person I've ever known to get a toilet for Christmas, just one more thing that makes you unique
Web, I knew the boy would LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE his race track
Sparky always seems to have things to say or do with the toilet!
My hubby surprised me with a beautiful ruby pendant with three hearts filled with rubies and surrounded by diamonds. I also got a leather coat, some sweaters, a skirt and some pearls. I also got the sweetest heartfelt gifts from DS; it made me cry tears of joy! But my secret santa gift was the bomb! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! What fun to open. It was a snow theme filled girlie kinda of gift. It really warmed my heart. Thanks SOO much MZ! We have not made the snow yet. But can't wait.
I can't see the floor in my living room anymore. E made out like a bandit!
I am having a horrible time with my sinuses. Waiting on the hubby to bring me some gas station meds
I got a gift card to Bath and Body Works and another one to Walmart.
I got the Hairspray DVD ( the new one)
Like Riggs I got the Farewell Tour live from melbourne of the Eagles
I got Garth Brooks Ultimate Hits album ( the 3 disc with the bonus dvd)
and CANDY!
Off to Mothers later on for more goodies
Normie got Season 1-3 of Angel and season 5 of Buffy also some shirts for work and the first season of Laverne and Shirley and Sanford and Son. He loved it.
I've gotten some money and two cd's. Mrs Web says she wants to get me a new good coat but I gotta pick it out.
The boy is lovin' the electric race track and Mrs Web is loving the cookbooks.
We are going to my brother's today which will probably mean more money or gift cards from my dad.
Which CDs ?

I got some Flex conditioner. We grew up using Flex - it was my favorite as a teen. And once I learned that Revlon doesn't test on animals, I've been looking for it, but our local stores don't carry it. My Mom found it in the dollar store. Go Mom! Some gloves (which I asked for), A gift card to a spa, (technically that was my birthday present, but I got it today, so I'll count it...) A giftcard to the hardware store (so we can start on redoing our kitchen one of these days...) 2 Olive Garden gift certificates, a smaller gift certificate to another spa. Candy canes (My Mom always gets me those. I love them & will eat them all year long. Especially since my Mom loads us up after Christmas when they're dirt cheap.) And a clothes drying rack that rocks. It's got 3 layers, and I'll use it when I do my handwashables. It folds up like an ironing board into the corner - very cool. And some chocolates. That's about it for me.

My dad must have had a good year . . . they bought all the grandkids toys, but handed each of us kids a $100 bill.
The boy got the big 150 pc Magnetix kit and a cool remote control car. The car has a video camera on it and a headset so you can drive it in other rooms via the camera.
My niece and nephew got Guitar Hero II so they were jamm'n to that all day. They said they played until 3:00am this morning. My nephew is pretty good on it, he's doing well on the "hard" level already.
The boy just sassed his mom big-time. He just lost his race track for the rest of tonight.
St Nick brought candy raisins. Santa, a pool que-nice, cell phone (?), 2Gig jump drive, new PC and a brand new chimanea.(http://www.thebluerooster.com/catalog/prairie-chiminea-p-76.html) with some $$$ that my parents laid on us. Hey, we also did the burgers on the grill tonight. I will have to wait until I'm at work to send the photos.
Peace.

Uh oh, Logan's already getting on the naughty list for next year!
Oh, and we did Christmas at my grandma's too, and I got a bath pillow! My mom drew my name, so the big thing was the pans, really the bath pillow was just extra. I already have got all the pans out and have made a pile of the pans that I want to get rid of. We're keeping a couple nice small soup/sauce pans since that seems to be what we use the most, I've got the tiniest skillet that's perfect for melting butter, and the new set didn't come with a griddle, so we're keeping that. The rest is either going into the camping stuff, to any friend that needs a pan, or donating it to Goodwill or some other charity.

I'm glad you liked it Ruby! I wanted to get you something different that you hopefully didn't already have, but wanted. And I knew you'd love to have some snow for Christmas!
I got some money, a wallflower from Bath & Body Works, candy, a couple of CDs...Korn, Theory of a Deadman, and Puddle of Mudd, Transformers dvd, Guitar Hero Rock the 80s, a hot cocoa set, and some socks. I also got the new Pirates of the Caribbean dvd but will have to exchange it as my youngest daughter also got the same movie, haha.
The other day, G-gal sent me an autographed copy of Anne Rice's written thoughts on "Interview With The Vampire" movie. Since I loved the entire Vampire Chronicles, this was truly a very thoughtful gift and a wonderful surprise from G-gal!!! I will treasure it always!!!
We had dinner at home today with just the four of us. My dad and brother went out to my other brother's for the day.....we were invited, but the girls and I would rather stay home and relax!
Hi all. The girls got a new computer from their dad.
I'm so impressed with myself because I was able to get it working!!! The only thing I haven't bothered to do yet is get the printer going. I think I need to go to the HP website in order to download some updates. That's what the message said anyway when I initially tried to download the software that I had.
Anyway... the girls got me a pair of PJ's and a sweater. Granny and Pop bought me a new pair of dress boots and a new DVD player since the one upstairs went on the blink. I also got the annual Christmas card w/ cash!!
We got "Hairspray" which we plan to watch tonight. CD's include Colbie Callait, 26 (Hip Hop hits of 2007), Taylor Swift, and Timbaland (I'm taking that one back... I didn't notice the parental warning on it. It still shocks me to hear such language in music!!)
Kids got two games for Christmas. The most fun is Catch Phrase Musical Version.
Younger one got several Webkins and older one got Clothes.
Portable gas grill for next football season (yeah tailgating!) Some clothes and a few SNL DVD sets!
The season sets SG?
After Saturday and the Liberty Bowl (which we are leaving for on Thursday!), college football is done for me for the season.....I'll haveta wait till August/September again!
