Yes, we all want to know what pets got what and how they liked it. But how about us? What did the actual PEOPLE in this guild get?
My family went overboard, which makes me feel shitty cause I spent half as much as usual on account of being broke. I handmade lots of gifts.
I especially feel bad that my reaction to the first gift I opened was not what my parents hoped. To be honest I've been through so much lately I'm getting bad at faking happy. I was just like "you got a me a purse? confused " I'm just not that kind of girl, I thought they knew that. Especially not a huge leather purse.
Actually the next gift I opened had a similar reaction. A jacket that is sort of um...not my style. My mom said I can return it for gas money. I think I'll ask her to keep the money cause they really spent too much.
Everything else was awesome. My brother and I got a freaking popcorn maker! I gots the last air bender, new gloves, a paw print wheel cover, lots of chocolate, some new undies lol.
My big exciting gifts were a travel mug from David's tea xd I know I'm lame but it a strainer for loose leaf and a compartment to bring extra tea with you. My brother got me a remote starter for my car (which he fixed and said to pay him back whenever) and a new sound system with a cd player. eek heart
My parents got me cross country skis for skiing with Cowboy plus a gift certificate to get boots and bindings AND a brand new, awesome ski suit for downhill skiing. (around $350).
So ya, I told them they overdid it, and they're just like. Meh, we had a good year. I think it bothers me cause I feel like my dad tried to buy my love and then thinks because he buys me so much stuff, he has a free pass to be an a**. rolleyes

We got our four dogs a tennis ball, two squeaky toys, a raggy toy, a stuffed animal, a fake bone, an orange collar for the one who is constantly out in the woods, and special wet dog foods for a special dinner. They enjoyed tearing through the wrappings more, though.

Lets see... From the parents:
All four books I wanted (I was most excited about the two dog books lol)
Eclipse on dvd
the twilight board game. No idea why. I'm pretty sure nobody would want to play it with me....
Chocolate. Gotta love that
The most comfy pair of ugg boots I have ever felt in my life.
From the grandparents (or more so my nan):
Really awesome clothes (I know that sounds weird but my nan has better fashion sense then me xd I wear something that I bought, yeah whatever. Wear something she got for me, all my friends want to know where I got it....)
Some bracelets that I'll probably actually wear
Annnnd more chocolate.
Now for the siblings. Not all of them got me something, because we don't usually buy anything for eachother. They have made me feel guilty now.
My sister and her bf:
A necklace with a K on it (since my names Kate and all)
A bracelet
Nail polish.
My brother got me a $30 itunes card and my other brother (the one that has the least amount of money and should probably be spending it on his newborn baby) got me:
A book that I already read but he refused to get a refund on it
Two sets of good head phones
A nice picture frame
Latest Rihanna CD
And then my Aunt gave me:
A really awesome watch that was most likely very expensive
and MORE chocolate.
I got loads of presents this year. And in turn, did not give many presents. Not my fault people didn't want to listen when I said I didn't want anything. But atleast I got everything I wanted/needed.
