PostSun Dec 25, 2005 8:30 pm    What did you GET/GIVE for Christmas?

Post here to share with everyone what you got for Christmas, and what you gave to other people.


~The best thing i got, and omg this was SUUUUCH a surprise, i almost started crying for real when i found out, was a trip paid by my parents to ANYWHERE of my choice! If I fly somewhere inside the USA, they will pay for it all. If i fly outside the USA, they will pay for the majority of it!! OMG!!! I am totally planning on going to Germany to visit my friend Julia who came to visit me 2 summers ago! I've felt horrible that I wasn't able to affored to go see her, and now i can!! I may make a stop in England to visit Danni, and whoever else i'm able to meet up with ! It was more than JUST an xmas present though. Part of it has to do with keeping my grades so high at school, paying for all of my expenses, being a "responsible daughter", and a few other reasons. Hard work does pay off !!

~i knew i was going to get this, but was still extremly excited to open it, and that is a video camera of my very own!! YAAY! I've been wanting one of my own for such a long time. The one my family has is 15yrs old, and isn't very reliable. It has been a very good camera though, but it has already seen the best of its days.

~ I am a huuuge fan of Phantom of the Opera, and my mom collects Department 56 Snow Village houses and stuff. Anyway, there was this adorible halloween piece called "phantom of the organ". I saw it last Easter when we were down in madison. I of course fell in love with it. I wasn't expecting that at all, but my mom ordered it online and totally surprised me!!

~ a cute sweater w/ matching scarf

~2 pairs of pajamas

~niiiice cute socks

~ butterfly lights

~ cute mittens

~ a minnie mouse ballerina ornament

~ gift certificate to Target

~ new work-out clothes for the gym

~ "I Love Lucy" Ballerina ornament

~ Cranium (game) turbo edition

~ hubble telescope calander (full of pics taken by the telescope!)

Definitly a great Christmas!! I love it that i have something like a trip to look forward to! YAAY! I looooove traveling, and getting to go to Europe twice in 2 years is the COOOOOLEST! WOOHOO!


What I Gave:

~I knit a scarf for my mom
~ A new DVD player for my parents
~ Coffee
~ I made picture frames for my friends
~DVDs for my parents "Little Shop of Horrors" and "Somethings Gotta Give"
~I developed all my mom's pics from her Ireland trip, and put them into an album for her
~A gift certificate for two to dinner at Fudruckers for my parents

... that's all i can think of at this moment...
