Meeeerry Christmas guys!! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

I got Pokemon Alpha Sapphire AND Super Smash Bros 3DS. I also got my new Canon lens that I've been using a lot! A few nail polishes, a couple fragrances... I bought my dogs the Turnup that I ranted about. The gift giving and receiving starts early around here with me. LOL.

What about you? :) Going anywhere or doing anything special this month?

YAY CHRISTMAS :p

We don't do much Christmas Eve. This evening we went to my aunt's house, but it was just a simple get-together, we had pizzas and dessert and chatted :)
Tomorrow is the real deal when the whole family will be here for gifts and food and games :)

No gifts yet, I just know I'm getting the Harry Potter paperback boxed set because I was with when my mom bought it lol.

My boyfriend gave me my gift early. He has one and I fell in love with it, so he got one for me: a projector that shines a moving galaxy on your ceiling.



My family all opened one present this evening and I got the Brittany calendar I asked for :D I'll have more stuff tomorrow!

Merry Christmas! I got to stay up all night finishing wrapping and getting the turkey in the smoker.

I also bought my daughter a new radio head unit for her car for Christmas so I just spent the last hour installing it in the dark. Sounds great. All of her stations are programmed from what she previously had and the CD she had in the old factory stock unit is now in the new one. The empty box is wrapped and under the tree ;)

Now I'm just waiting on the smoker to get up to temp and I'm going to stick the bird in and take a nap. Should be able to sleep about 3 hours before I need to tend to it.

I think these are so neat!! Looked into them last year after Christmas and then forgot this year! Do you have a link to yours? I guess some are not so nice. I want one I know people have used and like!!!


I got chickens!! Used chickens lol! My grandparents had a rooster I've loved so my husband nabbed him and two hens bought a roost and run and feed and a bunch of other small stuff. So far that's it cuz there was no hiding them last night. Then in the spring we can set up the wire and t posts and get the different chickens I want if I still want to.

Merry Christmas!!

Reading Joce's post, is anyone else picturing an attempt to wrap a rooster? :rofl1:

4 1/2 hours in, the turkey is at 139F and rising. Misting on the half hour. Pretty soon I'll be all about that baste (sorry, no sleep).

^^ LOL Eddie

We're not really a gift exchanging bunch. I guess you could say I got micro spikes and new hiking boots though? I needed new boots last month so the SO split the cost of them with me... And I need new micro spikes, so he said he'd buy me those this week.

Merry Christmas everyone!

I got the camera I'd been wanting - nice point and shoot/video camera with wi-fi and editing capabilities. I've been taking far less pictures than I used to because I don't like dragging my big camera around all the time, and I love the video editing/uploading options for trial/training videos. It is charging now - excited to take it for a test drive this weekend!

Merry Christmas everyone! I got the best gift- a day off to spend with the dogs. :) They're getting a big breakfast right now and then we're going to attempt a four dog photoshoot lol

Oh, I forgot, the only gifts I got were from clients and my boss, which is kind of awesome! Some cash, the book "how rocket learned to read", gift cards to the Alamo Drafthouse, target, Meijer, biggby, Panera, subway, and a little block sign that says "there is always room for one more dog" plus a pretty cool letter from my new boss. I wish I were working today, my co-workers are basically the only family I have.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Today I got... a hangover :eek: lol my friend that moved 3 hours away came back for Christmas, we usually spend Christmas eve at her place partying

I got a new bed-set that I asked for, a gift card to the mall (I guess that's the hint that I should break and buy new clothes instead of the ratty things I wear lol), and lots of zombie & dog stuff.

And this book!

:rofl1:

I found out my move has been delayed! WORST PRESENT EVER.
Ugh. Like my husband finding out his company is no longer going to do Holiday bonuses (after being bought last month). It's always great.

I got a tree. Sort of. Been wanting a peach tree and my husband gave me a 'coupon' to pick one up and he'll plant it for me (this Spring/Summer, obviously, got to have to look it up). Pretty happy about it, to be honest! Assuming of course he doesn't lose his job to the buyout issue and we don't have to move...

And some random foodstuff in my stocking (except the jar of cornichons was loose so I had to wash my pickle-stinking stocking this morning and they are probably bad as the jar wasn't sealed properly).

I did a family Christmas on Monday got some money and shirts. OH and rum! (mm Kracken, my fave) Netflix for a year.

Today we are going to my BF's family for their Xmas. BF got me really nice crocs (the ones that look dressy not the plasticy holey ones) Soo comfortable.

And then tomorrow I am putting on a Christmas dinner thing with friends so we shall see!

Along with my Harry Potter books I got a new charm for my bracelet, and Chromecast, which I almost bought for myself last week! And some cash.

Perhaps the best of all is the weather, I actually got to take the dogs to the park to tire then out before everyone comes over!

Well it's 5.30pm here. We've eaten. Mostly. Been a strange one as I'm not visiting home as impending birth and all, but had a lovely day just us and the dogs. I'm knackered so feet up, films and pudding once my food has settled a bit!!! Told baby it's missed santa... On the naughty list already ;)
