What Did Santa Bring You?
DH, once again, blew the limit. I, of course, love it but still have to give him a little bit of heck.
He got me the Bare Minerals starter kit and a couple of eyeshadows, and these beautiful Swarovski necklace and earrings!

Re: What Did Santa Bring You?
What a gorgeous set of jewelry! I especially love the necklace, so pretty!
Jason and I splurged and bought ourselves a 42inch plasma flatscreen TV in November to replace our giant 300lbs box TV we had lol, so we said that was going to be our Christmas present to each other so we didn't exchange anything on Christmas.
We got tons of wonderful gifts from both of our families; a few that really stick out in my mind is the Keurig that my Dad got us which I am now totally obsessed with, a canister set that my Mom got me, and Jason's grandmom got us some nice new pillows which we love; we're pillow crazy. We have 8 standard sized pillows on our queen bed at all times and 4 spare ones in the closet just in case lol, so replacing our older ones with brand new ones is great, especially since we're getting a spare bed for our guest room/office sometime within the next week. Oh and my Mom gave Jason a really awersome Redskins throw/blanket that we plan to hang on the wall in said guest room...I've caved and agreed to let him 'man the room up'.
DH and I didn't exchange gifts this year. We splurged on a few things earlier in the year and decided not to.
Our best gift was a carpet shampooer. I borrow my sister's all of the time and now we have our own. It works fantastic too! I think it is a must have with dogs.
Our gifts to each other were relatively small, but we definitely got spoiled by our families.
I got DH a calender from Vistaprint with pictures in it from this past year and I made him rice handwarmers, thanks to all of Jena's postings on pinterest. He got me pretty pearl earrings and made me a cutting board holder for our cabinet, which gets all our cutting boards off our microwave.
From family we got our swing/bouncer for the baby, a Keurig coffeemaker, and DH's mom gave me a really beautiful necklace made to support the charity she works closely with (Living Water for Girls, a home in Atlanta for girls who have been victims of child prostitution and/or human trafficking).
We didn't do gifts for each other this year, we're looking at a 32' flat screen for the bedroom so we said when we get it that will be our gift, however we still did stockings, so i got 3 really yummy smelly sprays from bath and body works, an iTunes gift card, some gum (i'm always asking if anyone has any ) a way cool bottle stopper, and the movie the crow.
and I got him a packers travel mug, some chocolates he likes and the lord of the rings on blu-ray and a packers shirt.
As for family gifts my parents got me a roster oven thing, and veggie steamer. and they got mike star wars on blu-ray and his parents got me the movie rio (love my cartoons) and some lucky brand spray. and they got him the other set of the star wars, and smelly spray stuff he likes that he just ran out of lol.
and we do a gift exchange with my sisters and borther-in law so mike got a bottle of crown royal and I got this AMAZING photo deal it's a custom 16x20 photo on canvas and framed. I just have to pick a photo and send it in to be made!
