I got a sweet pair of North Face trail shoes, a pair of Patagonia Capilene long underwear (my gift to myself), some money, a shopping tote, and a gift card. There will probably be more, as there will be a few gifts exchanged at dinner this afternoon. I won't be seeing my parents this Christmas as my mother is currently in a hip-to-toe leg cast, but they'll come down at spring break and Mom will bring me lots of silly little gifts. There will be clothes, a calendar about Paris, and a cookbook, most likely.
Because of budgetary restraints, Christmas this year was pretty tiny. But we'll be continuing another tradition, where we go out for a big fancy dinner at a nice restaurant in town, and go a little crazy. It's the one time a year we leave our poor college student selves at home!
