    I had some lovely gifts too. I have slippers, pj's from a parent, a snuggle blanket from another and a set of books from one of my daughters. Sat last night all cosy and read my book and i'm planning it again today! My partner bought me a beautiful mikimoto pearl in florida and gave it to me as a surprise and I'v got so many lovely gifts I feel thoroughly spoilt!

    My DH made me a metal bird feeding station - pole with hanging branches on it. Then bought lots of bird feeders and nuts/seeds I am in birdwatching heaven from the dining room window

    Got some retro style weighing scales for the kitchen and a promise of a KitchenAid mixer when I see which one I want

    lots of other bits and pieces. DD,16 and DS,14 between them got one of her close up black and white photos of them in the snowy weather printed and framed - it is lovely. Will post pics later.

    I have been very spoilt and although the scales and mixer are a bit of a 'house' present, family know I love my baking
    Happy to be back with the Greenies

    a new camera !!!!

    DH was fed up of me aways having to get batteries for the camera and saying that is took the photo minutes after i pressed the button! ( i missed so many 'wow' s! )

    its lovely, i just plug it in to recharge and it takes photo at once and i can take 850 photos before downloading !!! HURRAH !!!

    and my brother excelled himself ( after previous years of 'interesting' scarfs etc, and last years 2 bottles of red wine ( when i drink everything BUT red wine! ) he gave me a gift voucher for pandora beads ! AND he bought DS & DD 'wii sing disney' for the wii - excellent fun ( although i think Dh & i have used it the most! )

    and my mum has given us a weekend away without the children

    I was spoiled, too! I got:

    a Kindle, which I absolutely love
    A Pandora bracelet
    J Lo Glow perfume
    A gorgeous necklace in my home-made cracker
    Matt Cardle's CD, hehe

    One of my favourote gifts was from my girls at work, who got me a book called 'How To Be British', hahahaha.
    Why is "phonics" not spelled the way it sounds?

    I have been spoiled rotten!

    My children got me a couple of lovely Pandora beads.

    My mum sent me some money which I will enjoy spending on ME in the sales.

    Nige got me a coat (I picked it), some Chanel perfume, a Les Miserables DVD and a cute mug.

    I got a surprise cheque from someone very special too.

    All the parents bought me chocolate... I don't eat chocolate so the children have done very well

    And of course lovely candles from my Secret Santa
