The big day has now passed and for some work beckons again already.....let's see what exciting presents we all got - what was the best one you received....... for me it has to be a lovely pair of long black boots from hubbie (ok I bought them before xmas and gave them to him to wrap) - they are soooooo comfortable !

My new terramundi jar to start saving again for next year. Hubby and I only exchange token bottles of our favourite tipple. Was pleased to get money from parents and stepson as we have a very expensive year coming up with one thing and another.

We don't do presents but seeing my niece and nephew spend the money I gave them the week before Xmas was the best gift for me and knowing it was money saved and not taken from a credit card![:D]

We don't exchange gifts either. Looking at my daughter (18) and my grandchildren open theirs is enough for me, I love their faces when they see what he's brought them. This years gem was 7 year receiving a snow globe from Santa with a pic of her and Justin in (the wonders of photoshop). She is totally confused as she knows she's never met him but screamed when she saw it! x
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

Mine favourite was the beads that Dave bought me for my Lovelinks bracelet. We still exchange presents as I like something to open on Christmas Day!

I'm just looking forward to the day when we are able to go away for Christmas and not bother with presents!!!

That's a lovely thing to collect Skippy, I don't personally collect anything but daughter likes Thomas Sabo and got a bracelet for Christmas from her sister and now we can buy her charms. I wore her necklace for the FF meet in Northampton. x
