    I hope everyone had a good Christmas. I think everyone received what they wanted here. I was surprised and got a camera of my own today. Hoorey, now I won't have to borrow my hubby's any more. Any more surprises out there? Did anyone get something unexpected??

    Oh yes!!! :D

    I got a beautiful Rennie McIntish bracelet from my daughter and a fantastic weed zapper, completely organic too, from Ian and a lovely table centrepiece handmade by my eldest son. Sooooo many gifts and soooo much food!!!
    Best of all though I got a 'phone call from my youngest son who is in Sweden at the moment - really made my Christmas for me. :stew1:

    Cajunbelle gave me a link to a site where the lady makes these beautiful greenhouses out of old windows and other junk. Hubby got me 16 used windows and took me to "the junkyard from hell." I bought some very interesting junk to embellish it with. :-D For myself for Christmas I got Diamonds, diamond drill bits that is. :) Now we can drill stained glass and make some windchimes! I am looking forward to some new and interesting projects. You will LOVE that camera. Hope ALL got something to be excited about. :-D

    Hello!

    Whew, Christmas was such a rush! I feel like I planned for months and it was over just like that! We gave my parents a camera...you will love having one of your own!

    My hubby-to-be surprised me with a beautiful new plant for my office frist thing Christmas morning. What a great way to start the day! Since I am new to this whole world, I also got a few plant tip books and needed supplies.

    It seems as though the news of my new hobby spread through the family because they all came bearing cuttings! I have no idea what to do with them. I am going to have to post my questions with the pictures of my new children soon. :)

    I hope you all had a wonderful holiday!

    We got books, films, towels, clothes, toys and other nice, useful things. I got a gift card for my favorite shop, so I'm off to spend as soon as I get time. :D
