My favorites are the Pandora charms that my kids picked out for me. A close second is my new LED TV

My best gift this year was my Husband. He works out of town and wasn't supposed to be home for Christmas. I got a phone call at 6am on Friday and it was my husband's friend from work saying "aren't you going to answer the door- Your husband is COLD!".

Also got a kindle (from myself) a clarisonic thingy (from DS and DH) and a pink Coach purse (DH, who wanted me to have something FUN to wear when we go to Disney in the begining of march)

My DH is a great husband, never gives surprise gifts --- until this year! We celebrated our 25th anniversary this year and renewed our vows on a cruise. We agreed no gifts - we bought a new TV for each other (well, actually for him -- I did not mind the one we have). He gave me a 14K gold 14 diamond 1K anniversary band - totally shocked and amazed.

We also got to spend the first Christmas with our new grandson who is 5 months old. We gave him his first Mickey Mouse.

Mine is a pink sock monkey my mom gave me. I love sock monkeys and had seen a pink one at Cracker Barrel this past summer but it was too expensive so I passed. Well she found the pink socks in a sewing catalog and made me one. I love it and it will join the others I have on my bookshelf.

My Pandora bracelet and 3 charms from mom, kids and dh, my mom got me "inner strenght" which meant a lot b/c she sees I have come a long way in my life, I also got the giraffe (I love them at the zoo and always commented how cute they were in the pandora catalog when looking for my sil's gift) and a purple murano with blue flowers that DS (age 8) picked out.

I also got a car starter, as an overnight nurse this will be WONDERFUL at 730 am, I can start my car from the ICU floor

My neighbor's little boy knew I was home alone on Christmas and he brought me a little card that said "Merry Christmas! I love you!" and had a dollar in it. It was the best Christmas present I got and I'm going to put it in a frame and make it a Christmas decoration I put out every Christmas from now on.

Mine was a purse made by my 3yo and the book that came with it. My Mom took pictures of my DS making the purse and wrote the story of him making it. She had it bound and they gave them to me on Christmas Eve...and by about the middle of reading the book I could not see through the tears. It was amazing and the picture at the end of the book with him holding it and the caption "my mommy is going to love this" have me tearing up every time I think about it!!!!

My new iPad! What means the most is that DH got an unexpected bonus 2days before Christmas and headed out to Best Buy to get it for me. He hates crowds and shopping but wanted to get it for me. I don't think I've put it down yet.

Season 1 of Glee. I literally did a dorky, Elaine-style happy dance in my seat.

Also my t-shirt that says 'Axial Tilt is the Reason for the Season'. I'm a Christian but the science geek in me just LOVES it.
