Looky Here Now--I really wasn't that good!

So, what did you get for Christmas??? Did you get something you were really wanting, needed, or just flat didn't want? LOL
Our family had a GREAT Christmas. We spent Christmas Day with our DS#1 and his family. DS and DIL cooked for us and made the day very special. We played with the three grandchildren and their new toys. DS#2 and DIL were with us in spirit as they were unable to come home for Christmas (from Virginia.)
Well, I say...I did fare well! I received a quilting charm "Bee Quilting" to wear as a pendant. I also received two charms for my charm bracelet -- a cute little bow and a pair of scissors. AND, I received a gift certificate to The Fat Quarter Shop -- yummy! Then I received one of those digital photo frames -- I LOVE IT! It is so cool. I got one of those electric foot massager thingys....awwwww.....feels good.....A really cute snowman to use in decorating next year, a box FULL of cute socks......lots of socks.....really cute ones with all different themes....got a scrapbooking kit......a Brighton necklace and matching earrings....a little compact Bible that fits perfectly in your purse or tote bag AND it has a darling red leather cover on it with a flower fastener. It matches my red camera case. Also got the DVD "Mama Mia". Yea! My Wacky Sisters went to see it one day and I didn't get to go. I have already watched it -- GREAT CHICK FLICK. I also got a new little puppy -- a dachshund named Toby. He is a chocolate color and is already ROTTEN! I'll be posting pics later.
Yes, I got lots of goodies, material things and I'm appreciative of each and every one. BUT, the most wonderful gift I received is knowing the real meaning of Christmas -- the birth of Jesus Chris and the gift of forgiveness. I hope that each of my friends here in the blogging world had a Blessed Christmas as well.

OOOOO...can't wait to see your little puppy's picture. And...I'm fascinated by the Bible you mentioned. Exactly how small is it? Maybe you can take a picture of that next to something so I can see the relative size? That would be a very nice thing to have (and also to give as a gift.) Our church has a little religious items store and I'd like to show that to the gal who does the ordering! My first time at your blog, but I'll be back!!! :)
