Gifts have been opened, the pumpkin pie is baking, chicken & dumplins are about half way done. I am drinking my Cinnabon flavored coffee and checkin in with you guys. We are watching the Disney Christmas Parade while surfing the net and folding laundry.
Corey got me everything that I could have wanted and more. This is the first year out of our 10 Christmases together that she really truly did a great job of getting me stuff that I wanted without being told with a "wish list". In her defense, I am extremely difficult to buy for. Mostly, I am "just go practical" but I am picky about what I like. I do like the occasional indulgence, but it's odd stuff, like the Walt Disney caricature box that I posted about last night. You can never go wrong buying me Disney stuff though.
I got the cookware set that I had pointed out as something that I would love to have to replace the old stuff that really should be replaced. I pointed it out months ago. She took a picture of the T-Fal set that I wanted and went to Walmart and found it on sale now since a newer set has come out. She did good. She recently asked if I wanted the new Paula Deen set, but I told her that I had not really looked at the set, but that she can never go wrong buying what I want. Improvising when it comes to cookware will always get you into trouble. When I was at Walmart shopping yesterday, I looked at the Paula Deen set. I was not impressed. So, I am really happy that she paid attention.
I also got the Disney Snowglobe Bookends that are huge and were thankfully on sale. We have looked at them for over a year now. We just couldn't handle to pricetag. Santa found a deal though.
I got $100 in Disney Dollars for my April trip. 
And finally, I got a Nintendo DS. I got one for Corey last year and I found that I really liked it. Since Corey's is usually on the road with her, I have one now to play with here at home. I got the Super Mario Brothers game and an accessory set to go with it. 
And how I forgot this, I don't know, but I also got Wall-E!
Corey got the Guitar Hero World Tour Band Set, which means that her lifelong desire to have a drum kit to play with has finally come to pass. With this new game for the PS2, we both can play together because I suck at guitar, but I think that I could do the drums pretty well. I am looking forward to getting into that later today, once the food is closer to done. She didn't tell me that she wanted the band set, I was thinking of us being able to play together more than I was thinking of her wanting the drums. She told me about wanting to play drums after she opened it. So, that worked out as a great gift! She also got a Guitar Hero t-shirt, Guitar Hero beanie hat, and a pair of Guitar Hero DS skins. Can you tell that she likes Guitar Hero?
She got three Patricia Cornwell books. She wants all of her stuff in hardback and paperback. I was able to get two books that she has in either hardback or audio form in paperback and one book that she didn't realized had even been published in hardback. She is looking forward to more good reads on the road.
She got a Santa Clause Mr. Potato Head. She wanted another Potato Head. We have one with lots of Disney accessories....too many to wear at once. I realize that it's silly, but we are both very big kids at heart.
She got another new game for the the PS2, Shaun White Snowboarding. She got the first seasons of two of our favorite tv shows on dvd, Eli Stone and Life. Oh, and she also got a Country Singer game for the PS2. Corey has a beautiful singing voice. I figured that she would get a kick out of the game and she is looking forward to playing/singing it too. She also got the digital picture frame that I posted about last night.
And of course, Santa came by with some good stuff to make Poly Punch with as well as some candy and munchies that are not necessarily the best choices for either of us, but it's the holidays. We have a bad Santa.
How's your day going?
