What did you get for Christmas?

[Running Mommy]

My big gift was a total shocker! It was a Nikon D50 digital SLR camera. I've been coveting it for years, but never thought I would actually get one!!
And then I got a bunch of bike goodies.
PI sugar Knickers
PI socks- my fave
PI gloves (or glubbs as I call them) IM training ruined my other ones. They are NASTY!
2 new sports bras's
The never reach hydration system for this years IM. It looks silly, but I think it will work alot better than the aerobar mounted front bottles.
and a purty new giro purple helmet.

I also got a bunch of stuff from L'Occitane en provence. Shea butter.... My fave!
Oh and jammies too. I always ask for jammies and it confounds my husband? I just like basic jersey knit jammie pants and shorts... Easy for some, a nightmare for my husband! lol
Oh and one of my best gifts? A 25.00 gc for TE!!! WHOO HOO!!!!
Like I said, I was a VERY lucky girl this year!!

Sounds like everyone got some great gifts this year!

The reviews have been good... but take note: It does spill out and will get on your brakes. So, something sticky is not really good to carry in there.

Have fun with your new camera!

You'll love it ! my dad has the D70, which I frequently "borrow", and it's awesome.

My parents bought a Nikon digital camera for Christmas too(don't remember which model). It is quite nice. Enjoy taking pics on your rides

My parents gave me some cash. I'm saving to replace my unreliable car.

I got a ton of stuff, from both hubby's family (Christmas) and my parents (Hannukah). Heh!

Highlights are:
7 Spinervals DVDs, including the triathlete pack! WOOOO I have a library to pick and choose from now!
Djembe instructional DVD
itunes/audible.com gift cards
Fresh oranges and grapefruits from Bell's Farm to Market in Texas (best. grapefruits. evar. & we get them every year but I am still psyched)
a few books and DVDs from my list, perfect!

I am very pleased. My husband's family works almost exclusively from internet wish lists for each other, so I usually end up with a lot of things I was hoping for...

Hey girls, there's enough for ALL three (4 if you count him)! Come on over! I was just thinking this morning that I need to get them out of sight!

KayTee, where are you? I've done a couple of rides with the RABA group. Hoping to do more next spring. There's a women's ride on Wed. evenings that I'd like to figure out how to do (time-wise). I work retail, so it's difficult - weekends are almost impossible!

[KayTee]

I'm on the north side of the river, but east of Richmond. In season I often ride RABA's Tu Hanover and Th Black Creek rides, and some of their weekend rides if we're not cycling from home or in the James City area. Next month DH and I will temporarily resurrect the weekly Sunday p.m. ride for RABA from Dorey Park in eastern Henrico, at least until early April (see www.raba.org for directions). Where are you? PM me if you're interested in the Sunday ride - it'd be fun to hook up!

IFjane, thanks for the offer to take the heat! It's not fair being made to feel guilty about indulging in such a major food group!
