Merry (Late) Christmas!

by Veronica

I would have blogged on Christmas Day, but I was too busy playing/watching my presents and just generally being lazy :P I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas/Holiday/etc. I went home Wednesday night right after work (got to my sister’s house at around 10pm, it’s about a 2 1/2 hour drive) and once her husband was able to get away from work (he was on duty [cop]) we opened presents.

My poor little nephew was crying and generally fussy the whole time because he was rather tired, but was forcing himself to stay awake to see what was going on. Opened presents on Christmas Eve since my mom was flying to Tennessee to visit family on Christmas Day and she thought I’d have to go back to Tally on Christmas Day (I ended up getting Friday off, so I drove home earlier today). My mom felt bad for leaving me, but it’s okay :P Anyways, so here’s what I got :D

My presents! A list of what they are + what else I got is under the cut.

My presents! A list of what they are + what else I got is under the cut.


1) A Magellian GPS from my sister/brother-in-law/nephew! I needed one of these. I got lost back in November when our dad and stepmom and brother came down to see the baby, I went home and was supposed to meet the whole bunch but I got lost so it took a while lol. The smaller image next to it was me using it in my car :P

2) Kodak MX1063 camera! I LOVE IT! Took the photo above with it actually :) Got it from my mom, at work (Target) they were on sale on Black Friday so I called my mom up and asked for one for Christmas. It’s a 10 mega pixel camera and I LOVE IT. My other one is about 2 years old, and somewhat works but makes a weird sound when I take a photo (I think something is wrong with the lens). + a $50 gift card to Target :D!

3) Monk Season 4 Box Set and House Season 3 Box Set which I have been watching, woot. Also from my mom.

4) Makeup bag. SO CUTE. It has a removable compartment on the inside and holds a lot of stuff. From my neighbor.

5) Movies from my mom! 300, I Am Legend, Sleeping Beauty (already watched it!), Narnia: Prince Caspain, and Transformers.

Not pictured: Money from my dad and stepmom and also a basket of candy. When I woke up Christmas morning my mom had two shirts and some cute polar bear pjs sitting out :P My mom also had a stocking for me when we got home from my sister’s which had candy and some of the movies pictured above.

Overall I had a nice Christmas, so what did you get? Or what was your main present you got? My birthday is coming up January 17th, which I love because what I don’t get for Christmas I just ask for my birthday haha. Lastly, thanks for the comments on the new layout! Glad people like it, still tweaking some things here and there though.

    I was looking at the Magellan GPS for my mom for Christmas, but ended up going with the TomTom ONE for her. Compared to three years ago when I used to deal with them working at Best Buy, they have gone down so much in price.

    There was a 4.3″ Widescreen (with the works) that I found on Amazon.com for $119. I had it added into my cart, and was going to buy it the next day… Only to find out that it was completely sold out of :’(

    Do you know where the makeup bag is from? I love the pattern on it!

    I think my sister got a really good deal on it too, she ordered it from Best Buy. It was one of their 5AM Black Friday deals but she ordered it online heh. It’s crazy how the prices of GPS’ have gone down, more people are buying them now too because of it.

    The makeup bag is actually from Target :D! I found the exact same one online: http://tinyurl.com/makeupbag I actually saw the bag at work all of the time and always thought it was cute :) So my neighbor rocks for that one lol.

    I LOVE IT! It has a nice little plastic holder where I can put my makeup on it plus I love the pattern too :D

    Aw. You got such nice things. I’m going to buy a GPS system from Toys R Us, since we have a special associate discount deal, going on until Jan 10th, 50% off! Such a sweet deal, considering how low GPS systems are going now.

    Love your new theme!

    You got some great presents! My sister wanted a Garmin GPS but sadly she didn’t get it lol! You got like every DVD my husband got well minus Sleeping Beauty (think that’s cartoon one, correct me if I’m wrong) he didn’t get that one haha! Glad you had a good Christmas and I hope you also have a great New Years.

    Ooh, looks like you had a great Christmas. I am so jealous of you for getting House Season 2 though, because that’s my favorite show and I don’t have that season. :P

    I got some great present as well. The main one was probably a $100 gift card to my favorite store – Aeropostale. I actually used it all up yesterday though.

    Happy New Year, and I hope you have a terrific 2009!

    Aww, you’ve got nice presents. I get shit ones every bloody year, but my mum always gets the best presents for me. She got me Chinese New Year clothes, and they’re awesome so those are my favourite ones. :p

    Also, this year, I splurged on myself because I know I was going to get shit presents, lol. So far, I’m happy. xD
