Christmas pt 3

Dec 27, 2006 10:39

We went to my parents house for an early Christmas lunch.  We opened presents while the lasagna cooked.

I got my Mom The Price is Right DVD game and the first season of Mama's Family.  I gave my Dad some Saturday Evening Post cars and a book, Walt Disney:  Conversations.  I gave my Grandma a swimsuit for her lawn goose, a nightgown, and our old VHS copy of Bride of the Gorilla as a gag gift because she loves Raymond Burr (it was also included in those 50 public domain movies for $20 I bought a while ago).

The big present from my parents will be delivered on the 30th.  They're giving us a daybed to replace our living corpse of a futon (which should have been replaced this time last year at the latest), the comforter set and some pillows for it, and a white cedar chest.  They also gave us a cute little air hockey table, some Omaha steaks, an animal encyclopedia, a baseball puzzle, Frank and Ollie (which I can't wait to watch !!!!!!), and some of their Twilight Zone DVDs they don't need anymore now they're buying the boxed sets.

My Grandma gave us a candle, some chocolate covered cherries, and a $25 giftcard to Wal-Mart for each of us.  I used mine Christmas day on something our store only carried for the first week it came out, Ducktales Season 2.

I spent my Border's giftcard yesterday and even had a buy two books, get one free coupon to go with it.  I got The Basic Eight by Handler, Good Omens by Gaiman and Pratchett, and Mort by Pratchett.  I also got a 50% off Coke calendar.  Wheee!
