Re: what are you getting/giving for x-mas
I decided to keep it ultra-simple this year for Christmas shopping. I decided to shop for the family I live with, my dad and his girlfriend, the boyfriend and his family. So, I got my sister [Daughter of the family I live with] a sweet black and white Elvis calender she's been wanting and Pirates of the Carribean 2; I got my bro [Son of the family I live with] the guide book to some damn video game he plays and a gift card to Growth music store in Bloomington; I got their mother a gift card to Rainbow and a gift card to Barnes and Noble AND I'm getting her $5 worth of Power Ball tickets; I got my dad a frame that I hand painted with a picture of me taken during a practice photoshoot with Lindsey's Mom, a Walmart gift card and I'm making him a corn bag [I'll explain what those are in a minute] and I just made his girlfriend a corn bag too. I got Nick a frame that I also hand decorated and I still need to go get him a gift card to Bob's Cycle Supply and him and his whole family are getting corn bags as well.
Ok now to explain a corn bag. Basically, you get some fabric, whatever color or design the person likes and you sew it up into a little pillow looking thing and then inside you put dried corn. Then it goes in the microwave for 3 minutes and it warms up. Its great for cold nights or sore backs or whatever! I love them!
I have no idea what I'm getting, except I know my dad is giving me $200 and buying my school books, and I know my sister is getting me the Imogen Heap CD, but thats all I really know of.
