I received a beautiful pin from one of the priests at my local church. He bought it when he was in Italy during the summer. God, it is gorgeous. He was also my Kris Kringle when we had our gift exchange, so he got me a gift card from Best Buy, a beautiful writing pen and a little bonus $$ for the volunteer work I do on Mondays.

Another priest gave me a beautiful vase today. My jaw just dropped when I opened the gift. It is just so beautiful. He also gave me this very
elegant wooden cross.

One of the ladies that works at the parish gave me a leather purse. I wasn't expecting anything from her, but she wanted to give me something for Christmas after I bought her some make-up a few months back. She had complimented me on the make-up I wear. I then bought her the same products and she was so happy. What a nice lady she is.

Tomorrow we open gifts here at my home.

Is it me, or did I just step into the 1970s? :confused:

Is it me, or did I just step into the 1970s? :confused:

:lol: I actually had some of those as a kid, The only thing I never got was a Pet Rock, Nerf Football and Pocket Fisherman.

Before Dvd's came along, I had always wanted a Sony Betamax Hi-Fi VCR but they were too expensive. About a month ago, I was shopping at a thrift store looking for stuff to sell on eBay and there on a table sat one with the original box and remote.

They wanted $15 for it which I gladly gave them but not because my dream of owning one was about to come true but because I knew I was going to be able to sell it on eBay and I did for much more than I paid.

All gift cards. Target, Hobby Lobby and Barnes & Noble. I'm supposed to be getting a pretty sizable gift card from my dad to buy myself a Wii. I think. Or maybe he'll actually surprise me with a Wii. :lol: But I dunno... I really think I'm gonna get a gift card.
Guess what. He surprised me with a Wii! So, no gift card for me. :banana: It was a late Christmas for us, since he was out of town and I had to work for the first two days after Christmas.

*a Wal-Mart gift card (from my aunt, who usually gets me one to Target...that would have been nicer, but oh well, I'll still use it)

and I did...on a Sony mp3 player. I likes. And Target doesn't sell it in stores, so it was a good thing I got a gift card to Wal-Mart instead.

I also got another Pearls Before Swine book, and a Brevity book.

We don't exchange gifts on my husbands side of the family but we do get the kids under 20 something. Instead we play Christmas Bingo and give out little wrapped up prizes, which is pretty fun.

My family plays games and hands out prizes too. Last year we played Bunco, and this year we played Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader. I like it, but we have some spoil-sports in my family that kind of ruin it.
