* High School Musical 3 Dance for wii (with dance pad!) - My ex's bro (and good friend). He even wrapped it in High School Musical gift wrap...cut Zac Efron's head off some of the paper, and glued it onto Ashley Tisdale's body...and wrote a comment on how illegal it is to want his body.

* A Roxy hoodie and $300 - My mum

* Fern Gully DVD (It's an injoke), Vol. 1 of the Dark Tower graphic novel and Raving Rabbids - From my ex's cousin (and good friend)

* A bottle of wine - My mum's bf

* A sweater from Bluenotes, A Sailormoon Moon Crescent Wand (old childhood toy I lost a long time ago), Oklahoma! Soundtrack (The one with Hugh Jackman!), Vol. 1 & 2 of Grimm's Fairy Tales graphic novel, Vol 1 of Mouse Guard graphic novel, assorted candies (including like 6 Kinder Surprises) - Kevin

 

A very full and materialistic holiday. Also probably got the most toys ever this year haha

My ex and I are best friends. We spend quite a bit on each other for birthdays and Xmas. I'm paying for his first tattoo for his Xmas gift, and bought him a bottle of his cologne, so it's evening out in monetary value.

 

Kevin's not pissed at all, he understands how close I am to Keith and his family. They mean a lot to me. Keith's family loves Kevin too, everyone in Keith's family bought Kevin some Xmas gifts too.

 

Besides, Kevin gets a new wii, no reason to be pissed there ;)

My brother bought me a Chia kitty!!!

 

$150 from Dad plus tonnes of chocolate

 

$60 mall gift card from my grandparents

 

Future in laws:

pj's

Kitty piggy bank that meows when you put money in it to save wedding money (gag gift)

I was actually quite surprised by everything this year. Spent lots of time with family and friends just enoying each and it was great.

The big ticket items are a Hepa Filter for my room (I think my house may have mold, and I've been a sick motherfucker for the past few months), a digital camera, and some magic cards. I also got a ton of books, some random gift cards, lots of socks, etc (I have a really big family).

 

Yesterday was also my 4th consecutive Christmas dinner in a row (Dad, Mom, Step dad, girlfriend), so I'm currently a plus-sized Owen.

In my case, I always ask for socks and boxers from my mom and my grandmother. Here's the method to my madness...I figure if they only by me that stuff, they won't spend money on me. My mom usually get's me other stuff in addition though.

 

Which reminds me, I got boxers too.
