    I got a Brother CS-6000i sewing machine, some rose scented lotion, a picture frame with 3 photos taken of me by my neighbor, candy, and spent $250.00 on fabric with buffalo prints for some new quilts.

    Daughter & Husband let me pick out quilt kit, fabric for backing and a jelly roll - from Connecting Threads, it came Christmas Eve, when we always celebrate, Grandaughter & boyfriend gave us a gift card to Red Lobster, Ex-Son-In-Law, GD & GS gave us one also, GS & GDIL gave us a terriffic smelling scented candle - Frosted Cranberry, above Daughter & Husband had it at their house this year. Hubby & I stopped exchanging gifts after about 45 Yr.s - we always buy what we want when we want it.

    Everyone's gifts sound wonderful, but, BEV, that paiting by Blythe is absolutely AMAZING! I am in AWE of that painting. I love fairies/faeries/sprites, but, putting those things aside, the paiting/painter/ability is breathtaking! GASP! She is one talented young woman. If she is not doing this as a paying--and well-paying-- job, she needs to be!
    I'm drooling. That is one talent I wish I had. I am supposed to have that talent, but they passed it on to someone else!!! I oil painted a little in high school, but ... it wasn't like this! ;)

    I got a Pandora necklace from my mum, a massage voucher from my sister and Liam got me a Wii Fit plus game - I bought a Wii with a Wii fit 18months ago for my birthday. I love my Wii!! I also have Wii active - so if you don't like Jillian or the other new one - try Active - it came with dumbells and a stretch band! It is a WORKOUT!!!

    I got a really nice hand carved wood stool in the shape of a cat from my son, some nightgowns and tops from my daughter and family, and a box of chocolates from the dog next door (her name is Molly and she is a cute little beagle who calls us Aunt Michelle and Uncle John) ;-) I also got some gift certificates from a book store and huge cookbook that I wanted. My absolute best present of all was brand new windows for my house, 24 of them. I had been wanting them for so long.

Bet that's what I'll get lol But then that's why I wanted the wii Plus, I'm hope'n 2 play games on it w/my grand daughter... I thought she'd love to watch me dance around like an idiot & perhaps even flail a paddle around herself lol

    DH gave me a magnahoop set for my embroidery machine and a light box for doing applique. We had a fun time with DD home from college and DS up for the day. Played with the dogs, went to see the movie Avatar and had a nice ham dinner. Great day with the family.
