So christmas eve, 10 pm. We decided to open all our gifts. Small ceremony, just me, beth, stavros, casey, and the mommy. Good gifts all around though. I got great stuff. Guitar Hero (with guitar of course!) a 320gb Western Digital "MyBook" external HD, a digital fuji f20 camera with a year of insurance in case i breaks it, the new found/unreleased sublime tracks with dvd and amazing artwork, a really awesome leather jacket making me look like House, Final Fantasy XII (kick ass), and $100 towards a ski trip we're taking next week. Great xmas indeed.
Nice stuff I gave:
-Seemingly professional portrait shot of my sister and I, and another of Casey and I for each other's respective parents. they came out amazing and we shot them at my store. Mucho props to Canon's XTi with 2 flashes and a nice backdrop.
-H&M gift cards
-Wine tasting to the new local winery in town and a free bottle
-A nice diamond/ruby ring for Case. We're not engaged but I wanted to give her something saying i'll be sticking around for a while.
-Hardbound collection of all the winning Pullitzer Prize photos over the year. A very graphic but amazing book.
-Mall shopping run at their favorite stores for Beth and Stavros. Hopefully they can find cool gifts with me... but for them =)
Hope everyone else had an amazing christmas!!! Happy birthday jesus and thanks for an excuse (albeit twisted and probably not what you wanted) to receive gifts.
