To being able to spend quality time with one of my persons.
Being able to exchange gifts with said person.
And that feeling that all is right.
That Santa gave me everything I asked for this year. It may not have been exactly HOW I wanted, but I am feeling like one of the most lucky girls in the world.
This year will never be forgotten.

My gifts were:

~ A stocking full of goodies

~ A new pair of pants

~ A button-up blue plaid long sleeve shirt

~ The movie Despicable Me (DVD, Blu-ray & digital copy) plus inflatable minion

~ Pink's Greatest Hits (So Far) cd & dvd

~ Little stuffed penguin in a chimney (soooooooooooooo cute)

Thats material stuff, but the best gifts aren't materialistic:

~ Time spent with My family

~ Having My favorite uncle ever & his girlfriend over for xmas

~ Spending this first xmas as Matthew

Its the little things that mean the most

A special someone here on BFP bought me the book Cleopatra by Stacy Schriff and it was awesome. Yes, I have already finished reading it.

NJFemmie · 12-26-2010, 06:20 AM

Lots of stuff... in fact, I have to figure out where to put everything.

The greatest gift I get every year is Christmas Eve dinner with Mare's (huge) family. I get to enjoy a traditional dinner mixed with lots of laughter and it's a great way to kick off a wonderful Christmas Day.

This year's material gifts between Mare and I include: HP laptop (with lots of accessories), printer, a deli meat slicer, a Keurig coffee machine, indoor BBQ grill, GPS for my new car (woohoo), lots of much needed goodies for my car, MORE Wii games (yay!), WoW upgrades (yipeeee!), Shrek movie, - jewelry, boots, sneakers, games, toys, candy and lots of stocking stuffer stuffs.

Aside from what is more important than anything material - which is spending the holidays with loved ones - the most memorable (and funniest) part of this Christmas is that this was Max's first Christmas. Santa Kitty brought Ember and Max lots of goodies and treats - but also brought Max's first collar - and it was quite the hoot watching him try to get it off! My regret is not being able to get it on video.

This holiday season brought me a PT job for which I have orientation on Tuesday
I'm thankful to a nun for reaching out and sending me that gift

I cooked a nice meal and watched movies with R
Enjoyed my kitties that I truly missed

I didn't give or receive anything material
This year has been hard financially

I'm thankful for friends that are in my life and the few family members I talk to

The Gift of Love... given and received...

Rook · 12-26-2010, 09:30 AM

Don't misinterpret my intentions for this Thread, plz..
I'm all about the Gift of Giving & Love...
The way my mother reacted when she opened her Gifts caught me offguard, and it was very very..emotional..?
She thought the gown was purchased after 1 month of salivating over it and thinkin about buyin it...
She guessed it was Sold when the Store changed Locations...
The sales girl & I had an agreement...
While she was packaging it I told her "I'll take it, but there's one small favor I need from you"(she made the Gown herself @ Pennsic War)
She glanced and fixed her glasses askin 'whats that?'
"I'm more than sure my mother's gonna come by with me at some point so--"
"I won't say a word or give a hint"

I did feel slightly bad when she did check..
But, that went away quick...
When she opened it, she was confused by the undergown, I swear I saw the lights go on upstairs, she had a bit of a difficult time opening it, I did wonder why the Tears...
She didn't really waste time in trying it on after a long, squeezing the air out Hug...
She decided she'll fix her hair real well, and find a good place for me to shoot some test Piccies...

Yeah it was a White Christmas here, too...

Lovin the posts so far, yaaaay

I got a bunch of crafts stuff, a snuggie, a Wii, and a stocking full of stuff... so far.. I still have gifts I am awaiting in the mail. I also recieved all the beautiful cards from everyone who signed up on the christmas card exchange!

My mom made us a very special dinner!! It was wonderful to have that time with her

To my roommate: I gave him a new 18V cordless power drill set. Thats what he wanted. I also gave him a stocking full of goodies and a Taylor Swift calendar. He is really into her.

To His mom: the latest Pill book. Thats what she asked for.

To my mom: She likes practical gifts, so i gave her a new mail box, because her old one is rusting off the side of her house lol. I also gave her a new faucet for her kitchen sink, because she wanted a new one.

I gave countless hours and energy coordinating and executing the wrapping of the presents, etc.. for 18 homeless children at the shelter ages 3 months to 10 years old. It was the best ever! Even better was their looks of surprise and excitement... all very worth it. The generosity of the community warmed my heart and made a huge difference in the lives of these children and their moms.
