LOL Oh my goodness. That place is without a doubt the cheesiest place on the planet. I've never been, but I get so tired of driving by the signs ALL the time. XD I've only actually driven past the place once, but oh my goodness. Cheesiest on earth. XD

Also, on topic, Beauty and the Beast and Inception on BluRay/DVD, a new hat and scarf, and a yoga mat! Also a trip to the movie theater, which has become a fast and welcome tradition on Christmas in my family. XD

On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me...nothing.

I have no true love.

FOREVER ALONE.

In all seriousness though I got some nice socks and a couple of cool shirts and some buffalo meat sticks. And a 50 dollar Wal-Mart gift card. Oh and the Simpsons/Futurama crossover book.

On topic:

I got some giftcards, and the love and joy of hanging out with family.

Oh boy. More stuff than I should have, but my dad got a bonus check...

Soundtrack and DVD of How To Train Your Dragon.
Tangled calendar (I really like animated movies...)
A hard suitcase like the ones my grandmother, mother, and I saw in Japan.
Moccasins from L.L. Bean.
A shirt and mug with the term I made up for my mother and got published on Urban Dictionary (profanity warning for some of the other words.) Lulz.
Black slip-on Converse.
A coffee cup warmer.
This great shirt.

And the most fun gift...
My brother and I got a Nerf Dart Tag set. 8D I'm 18 and he's 20. The greatest moment was discovering that the little velcro darts stuck to my dad's sweater. Needless to say, hilarity ensued.

Hahaha! My family and I went there a couple times when I was little (about 4 or 5. Maybe 6.). Whenever we would drive by the signs, I would always ask, "Can we go there?" Heehee! Brings back memories. (And yes, it's cheesy. :lol:)

From Secret Santas (was in 3 exchanges this year):
Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate
A box for recipes
A training retriever dummy for my future service dog
A coloring book with colored pencils
A flying monkey toy (complete with a hat and a cape!)
2 skeins of white Knit Picks yarn <3

From Mom:
A brand new set of really warm pajamas (just in time for the 28 degree weather we had this morning)
Some lotion
A calendar with kitties (I had already bought a Where's Waldo? Calendar, but it can't hurt to have more than one.)
A paint-by-numbers kit (it's a tiger!)

Oh, and at the White Elephant party last week, I got a couple of DVDs with episodes of old shows such as Andy Griffith, The Beverly Hillbillies, and Blondie.
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.

For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
