Kelly, no offense, but your fish just may be the reason 're-gifts' were invented....But its definitely a conversation piece!

Re: What did you get?
Kelly- I have to agree with the other girls!! YIKES
I forgot that my brother also gave me bridal party beauty day tin. It hs facial scrubs, feet lotion, nail polish the whole 9!!! That was cute!!
I went sappy w/ my FH I gave him a card w/ a gift saying that here is proof that love does last forever. And I had a photo of his parents from their wedding framed. It touched him!! (they were married 47 years when his Dad passed)
And then to make him happy I got him a gift cert to Home Depot!! MEN!!!!!!!!

Re: What did you get?
We both made out like bandits. We have wonderful families and really enjoyed ourselves yesterday, despite the 2-1/2 hours it took us to get from Smithtown to East Rockaway (normally a 40-minute drive!).Hubby got me gold and diamond hoop earrings; a HP printer/scanner/copier/fax combo machine; flannel sheets, etc.
We got a few couple gifts too, but mostly things for our house. We love our Home Depot gift certificates!!

Re: What did you get?
I got some nice things, like black dress boots, kitchen gadgets, a couple of books that I wanted to read, and gift certificates from Barnes and Noble and Victoria's Secret (since my mother gave me this gift certificate, I probably won't be buying anything too sexy because it would be a little weird!) This was my FI's second Xmas and he was quite happy with his gifts!

Re: What did you get?
I got alot of clothes, PJ's, Bath and Body, gift certificates to (Sephora, Victoria's, the Gap, and the mall). FH bought me the coach bag that I wanted, he said that he's gonna buy me the matching wallet too. I got my everyday wine glasses, my big platter for my everyday dishes, as well as the vegetable bowl for my everyday dishes. I think I also got most of our luggage, but his aunt didn't give it to us yet for some reason.

Re: What did you get?
I got the love of my hubby and the opportunity to say Merry Christmas to you my hubby. With the loss of my g-mas this year it just made me appreciate that much more, all the love that I have in my life. Not that material things are not nice, but I guess I was a little bit more sentimental this year.You ladies got some wonderful gifts.

Re: What did you get?
I was the same way Shamma! Two deaths last month really made us all re-evaluate the meaning of the holidays. FH and I stayed home by ourselves all day and I can't remember a better Christmas, EVER!
