    -A pair of Nike Shox sneakers (my Mom)

    -$300 from my Dad

    -A Dell laptop from both Mom & Dad

    I got a framed picture from our family reunion in July. :)

    When you live overseas you tend to try to shy away from the gifts becuase eventually you'll have to ship them back home. And for some reason I got nothing but books for my first 6 years in Japan then had to ship them all back to the US...heh I just tell poeple to say hello nowadays instead. :)

    I got a drawing tablet for the PC. Its pretty neat to have, and makes my drawing easier actually.

    Aside from that, I got a $50 gift card for Gamestop and $50. And some chocolate covered cherries, too.

    Ever since I got a job, I've got most of the games I've been wanting for a while, so soon I might save up money for a monster gaming PC.

    They ask for a dev item and forward a link or request in advance....not what I call Christmas really, gifts should be suprises.
