-Hannibal season two on Blu-ray
-Mr. Peabody and Sherman
-X-Men Days of Future Past
-the complete series of Psi Factor
-A Bug's Life
-The Incredibles

I didn't get much, but I did really like what few things I did get.

- Lego set of the LEGO Movie theme: Lord Business' Evil Lair (mostly because it was the least expensive set that includes a Vitruvius minifigure)
- 240 piece puzzle globe
- Astronomy calendar for next year
- various Reese's candy
- some money, which I plan to spend on some other Lego sets of the LEGO Movie theme that I'd like to get

What can I say? I'm obsessed with Lego. :D  (though not enough to spend $250 on MetalBeard's pirate ship)

So, at long last, here is my list.  Sorry it took a while, everyone! :)

TMNT Pajama Pants (My mom buys the family Pajama Pants every year and as tradition, we wear them throughout Christmas Day.)
Pokemon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire (Yep! I got both! :D )
MarioKart 8
Super Smash Bros for Wii U
Gift Cards for Wendy's, Zuppa's and Chick-fil-A (Looks like free lunch for a few days!)
Sudoku Books
$75 in cash!
Candy arranged in the shape of Santa on a sled. (Yes, a sled, not a sleigh.)

I also recently used the cash to buy myself something.

Two new pairs of pants for work (My work clothes have not been lasting much this year.  I've been going through them fast.)
A new pair of shoes (My old one are REALLY bad.)

There's my list!

See ya later! :wave

~Phone,not sure what type it is exactly but it is an Andorid of some type.
~Money
~Make up and perfume-don't normally wear make up to be honest,but I guess every girl needs at least some make up :lol
~Lindit Chocolate..I'm going to enjoy this all by myself.
~A baking thing,cause I do love to bake. It's called Cake Pops,it's pretty much cakes on stick. (Thanks,Zimba)
~Some horse gear,such as a new halter,saddle blanket etc.



I'm happy with what a got,I'll rather have a couple of well thought out gifts then lots of random gifts.

Oh yeah also got a bottle of wine,as it's tradition among my family. When you turn 18 the Christmas you are 18 you get a bottle of wine. Never understood why,but oh well.
