Anything bunny-related? I got a few bunny-themed gifts. Ricky bought me a beautiful snow globe with a snowshoe hare in it, a stuffie that looks like Bindi, 2 books and a CD.
I’m lucky in that my Mom still loves to play Santa Claus and spoils me even though I’m 30.
She got me a pair of Bogs which will be super handy at the stable. Lots of other barn stuff: a Mountain Horse winter jacket, riding breeches, a new bit for Winnie and stirrup leathers, Roots Equestrian hat and scarf. The Borgias Season 2. Philippa Gregory’s new book. Bambi PJ’s. And some Cruelty-Free Bath products. And a Litter Locker for my cats. She didn’t know what to get the gran-bunnies so she said we will go to the pet store next time we go shopping.

Here is what I got:
-Food Processor! I asked my dad for this and that is all that I wanted from him!
It will help my cooking life out SO MUCH 
-A new jacket. How convenient that the zipper broke on the last jacket that I had on Christmas EVE. Phew.
-A purple sweater
-“The Casual Vacancy,” by JK Rowling
-A Labbit beanie
-A small blind box Labbit toy (The bf knows how much I love labbits so he ordered a blind box one!)
-Lindt chocolates of a santa and reindeer. The reindeer LOOK LIKE they are BUNNIES! That is why my bf’s Mom got them for me LOL
-Tea!
-A gift card to TJ Maxx since I need new work pants and slacks.
-An Angry Birds Space calendar. -
I was spoiled this year
I got a kitchen-aid stand mixer, from the professional line! So excited to put it to some use. The Jane Austen books I don’t already have, the Trueblood season I didn’t have, misc. kitchen stuff, and g/c’s. Oh! and this amazing specialtly baking shop, in town recently closed down, but they released a cookbook of all their recipes… so basically my house will be filled with ridiculous amounts of food in the next little while 
@LPT, how is that Slash album??? I loovvveee him, but I haven’t heard it yet!

We had a wonderful christmas! Santa and the family brought me derby tights, gift cards, money for my master naturalist class, an underwater camera (so cool and a total surprise!), a tervis tumbler, a cool leather bracelet, and….. a red ryder bb gun!! Seriously the best present ever. I’m so glad my brother didn’t think I was kidding when I asked him for one*. My stocking was full of enough chocolate to last me until next christmas, hot cocoa mix, and a neat turtle candle! I didn’t get anything bunny related, but my love for bunnies is new…
I also jokingly/half seriously asked my parents for an iPad and was kinda hoping I would get one. I didn’t, but it was a wonderful morning regardless! I’m just going to have to save up my money for one *= my brother was actually going to order me a vera bradley wallet I had my eye on but he didn’t complete the purchase by accident. He called me 3 days before christmas freaking out so I just asked him for a bb rifle so we could shoot targets when I came into town

The only thing that can be remotely related to the rabbits that I received was my wireless headphones, how are they related? Well, somebunny likes to take a quick chomp out of my headphone wire when I have them on my lap, they don’t chew, just a little bite, and their teeth are sharp enough to ruin the headphones right then.
I also got an android tablet, instead of a bunch of books (mom thought i could download the kindle app, sadly it won’t let me for some reason.) new bed set, a couple shirts, pants, socks, and a hoodie, an ipod dock, slippers, a spiderman cup, and wait for it…. A remote control car. Yep, 18 years old and I asked for a remote control car. My nephew likes to chase it though.
I also got a Steelers shirt and 20$ from my grandparents, then a Spiderman poster from one of my sisters. And my girlfriend got me a bracelet with my name on it. My mom likes to go all out for Christmas though, it may seem like a lot to other people, but my mom thought it would disappoint us because it wasn’t as much as normal. I don’t know about my siblings, but I was happy with what I got.

So glad Santa was good to you all!!!
Malp15- It’s Slash, of course it’s awesome!
I’m a big Slash fan but an even bigger fan of his bassist, Todd Dammit Kerns. Not sure if you know of him but he’s from BC. I admin a Fan Page on Facebook and he sent me and all the other girls who run fan pages custom made shirts that say “Dammit’s Angels”. Was pretty cool. BunnyDaddy- I can certainly see how wireless headphones can be rabbit related! And don’t feel bad, my husband is 29 and really wants a remote control helicopter!

Haha my nephew saw me open it and took it straight from me. .-. but speaking of my nephew, he got a book rabbit related.
It’s called “Just Like Me.” By Miriam Schlein, it’s a cute little story about a cottontail rabbit, I read it to him for bed last night, he seemed to like it. The whole time he pointed at the drawings of the rabbits and said “Bunny!” -
First off, MALP! You got the Kitchen Aide stand mixer from the Professional Line?!?! WE DID TOO! Except we bought it ourselves. LOL! We’ve been using it for everythingggg. It’s so handy and awesome!!

*swipes LPT’s bunny plushie*
My daughter made me another book of funny pet drawings. She does this for Christmas, birthdays, Mother’s Day, etc. If I had a scanner I’d put some up, they were cute.
I got her the Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook. Unfortunately it doesn’t tell you how to make butterbeer.
OH paid the electric bill for the month. I got him a Nikon camera.
Son is too busy playing videogames to get anything for anyone. I got him a box of Magic the Gathering cards anyway.
This has been a rough year so Christmas was something I was less than enthusiastic for. It’s not really about presents for me anyway. I just dig the spiritual elements and try not to get hung up on what’s under the tree or not.
Sounds like you all had a good time though. -
**swipes Tanlover’s ice cream maker and Starbucks gift card….and 3 Tan Bunnies while I’m there breaking the law anyways. ”
That’s so sweet and thoughtful, Mike.
Mimz- I was less than enthusiastic about Christmas this year as well. It was a hard year for me as well and hard to get into the whole “Christmas Spirit”. I was sad about Stormy and Mystee not being here and my horse being lame for over a month now. I tried to focus on family and the things I do have. Despite how crappy my year was, I still have a lot to be thankful for.

Zoologist – It should still be under a limited warranty though. Most of those things have 30 days or something like that, it might have been a manufacturer flaw in it.
As for what I got, I had asked for a new Wacom drawing tablet, nothing fancy just something cause my old one broke. My mom, the smart alec she is, got me an Etch-A-Sketch.
Then she gave me another box and it had my tablet in it! Dad gave me $300 cash, which I spent on clothes I needed. And the hubby got me a blown glass orb that has really pretty swirls of blue, green, purple, and gold in it. I would’ve been happy with just spending the day with them. -
I am jealous of the juicer! I keep telling the fiance that we need to put one on our list when we register for weddng stuff. I have a really cheap one, but it really does not work well at all.
Foo gave lots of snuggles for Christmas. She’s allowed on the bed now, so I think she’s really happy about that. Or with the way she was chinning and grooming preparing a takeover and planning on kicking us out.
I love that my parents still put From Sants on some of our gifts. Ryan tried to play Santa and wrapped one of my dvds in different paper but then wrote from Ryan on it instead because he lost track of what it was. I’m upset, not many people around us put up lights or anything this year.

That’s cute that your aunt bought Cinnabun a treat!
BB- The snowglobe is from Chapters. Not sure if you have one in the US, it’s pretty much the Canadian equivalent to Borders. They had them last year and I told Ricky about them, but he waited too long to shop (typical!) and they only had the other Canadian themed globes (hockey players, moose or birds). So I was excited to see they had them again this Christmas.

Did the bunny plushie come from Chapters too, LPT? Not that I need any more, just curious.
I do feel thankful for a lot of things, but with so much going crazy in my personal life and family it is really hard to put that smiling face on every day. When I can’t I just try to stay out of everyone’s way because no one needs my darkness.
I know you had a visiting bun for the holiday but you also had furless family there, right? How did that go? Well, I hope. -
Mimz- the plushie is from Toys R Us.
Not that I need any more either!!!! I have so many plushies, I’m gonna be on hoarders soon, I think. Yes, we still have a little fuzzy guest. I’m getting too attached to him…. We didn’t end up having any furless guests. Ricky’s sister was supposed to stay with us over Christmas but plans changed.
