The other good day of the year…besides birthdays

December 26, 2008 | Family Portrait,Life in General,The 4-1-1 on Me

I hope you all had a fabulous holiday. Our family didn’t do Christmas this year because we’re doing Hawaii at the end of January (my parents paid for everything). We needed to save up for “play” money so we told family and friends we’ll get them something while we’re there. The bulk of the goodies you’re about to see are from Mr. Maul’s BF and his wife.

Icing Travel Note Set (purple) – for the notes I’ll take when we go to Hawaii (Kauai)
Betty Boop Procelain Collectible Clock – from my co-worker
Betty Boop Nite Lite – because I’m scared of the dark. Just kidding.
Darth Maul Lego Pen - from Mr. Maul’s BF
White Chocolate Bath Set (shower gel, body lotion and bath fizz balls) and Holiday Gingersnap Body Mist
Blue crochet purse – which the above came in. How cute is that?
Magnetic Writing Board set (incl pen, memo pad and 3 pc magnet)
Metal Bookmark – which I’ll probably use for decoration on the desk in my office because, for real, I’d only end up losing it or breaking it if I actually used it.
Book of Hawaii postcards
Green Tabasco Sauce – LOL. Because Mr. Maul loves the stuff
Sweet Pea picture frame – which she bought because our cat’s name is Sweet Pea
Betty Boop sticker album and 16 Betty Boop stickers to put in it – I haven’t had a sticker book since I don’t know when…
Pad of paper with “C” monogram on it – for more note-taking
Panty Candy – no, they’re not edible. But it’s a thong. Gah!
Candy – mini bags of Jelly Bellies and a couple of snowflake suckers
$10 GC to Borders – I prefer Bookstar/Barnes and Noble, but I’ll take it.
Brett Hart, Hitman: My Real Life in the Cartoon World of Wrestling - Mr. Maul and his BF are wrestling fans. Well, Mr. Maul not so much anymore but they still watch old matches when they hang out.
Cat toys (not pictured)
$10 Starbucks card (not pictured) – for Mr. Maul
Magnetic picture frame with a picture of us in it (not pictured) – Mr. Maul had already put it up on the fridge.

All in all, it was a great Christmas. We had dinner and Mr. Maul’s BF’s house, then we went over to my BIL’s father’s house for Christmas dinner. I even got a chance to see my niece and nephew, which I didn’t think I would.

So, how was your holiday? What did you get? What did you give?
