I made jewelry boxes for 3 of my best friends and decorated them and painted their favorite Bible verse on them, and I filled them with their favorite candy. I'm all about the homemade gift! Ha

I only bought something for my Uncle this year. I know, I'm lazy. I bought him a Cocktail recipe book, since he likes to do that kind of stuff in the summer.

Gift certificates for EVERYONE.
I hate the expressions of disappointment on their faces when I get them anything else. Moreover, I hate this holiday and will never actually put up a tree in my own house.

Oh I know, Blue.
Boxing Day is all about a game of cricket at the beach, and getting as drunk as you possibly can off your friends' beer.
Good times...

I got my parents a 6-inch goosedown quilted featherbed and a matching down comforter with a velvet duvet; my sister got a 6-month subscription to NetFlix; my brother got a gift card to WalMart (he's total white trash and only shops there); my best friend Jessica got tons of bath/body products, candles, incense, books, a few DVDs, some makeup, and a super fluffy bathrobe.
Guess who I love more? :-P
