If you exchange gifts, what'd you give or get this year? Enquiring minds want to know, y'know! ;) We haven't opened anything here yet, so I've no idea what I'm getting, but we got our son a new laptop and his sister gets his one year old laptop. We got the family a digital camera - AHHHHHHH, instant photo gratification at last! :santagrin I know there's some dragon items under the tree and "Santa" is giving me a couple Terry Pratchetts for reading fun! That's about all I know so far. I'll edit at the end of the day!
Let's see. Our son also got a GameCube. I love the digital camera. It's SO tiny and takes wonderful pictures! We gave Jenn's boyfriend money toward a tattoo he wants on his upper arm, another dragon. Also gave him a comfy warm blanket from Dancing Dragon catalog with a dragon pattern on it. Lots of CD's and DVD's, including a handful of $1 DVD's my son got for dad that are all "really bad" action flicks, that he says they have to watch together and laugh at! I got some beautiful handmade ornaments for the tree from several friends.

Francis - a beatifully painted candle.
Tim - Socks and some lighters (he asked for em!).
Lauren - a soft blue handbag.
Ben's gf Ruth - a beautiful stained glass hanging thingy with a fairy on it and a home made way to hang up her pictures on the walls without having to use blu tac, since we're not allowed to use it and she was a bit upset that she couldn't have her pictures on the walls.
Brother, Ben - Mortal Kombat Annihilation CD, a fire stick (he /really/ wanted one), a joint gift for him and Ruth of a beautiful designed glass night light to help 'set the mood' ;)
The rest:
Brother, Dan - A erm, 'tin' :D and a really cool tribal type hanging picture box thingy LOL
Dan's gf Allie - a chrome type artwork with marbles in it that has two spirals so that when it spins the spirals go in two different directions - it's very trippy!
Our resident slacker, Greg - blue car seat covers to go with his blue beast
Mum - Shark oil pills
Dad - Macadamia and apricot shortbread
Mum and Dad - A bookshelf that Ruth painted and decorated beautifully! An AMCF calendar! A special photo frame that I told them we had to take pics during the day and print them out on photo paper and put in there for the memory of this year's christmas day.
The puppies - a squeaky toy and some beef bits they absolutely loved!
Buddy the budgie - A beak cleaning bell and some green stuff that birds are supposed to like.
