So I thought it'd be fun to hear what people are hoping to get for Christmas and/or some cool gifts you have got/are getting for other people.
My mom, sister, and I went in together on a sweet Dewalt cordless drill for my dad which he's going to be stoked about. I got my sister some muic CDs and "Edward Scissorhands" on dvd and my mom a gift certificate to buy a new racket ball racket. As for me, my Christmas list was basically:
-a Pelican case to store/transport some vintage handguns my grandfather recently gave me -Place of Skulls discography -"Videodrome" on blu-ray -ammo -gift certificates to Nokternal Hemizphear, Divine Metal Distro, and Best Buy
So what about y'all???

me, i couldn't really think about what to get my brother, so i got him the movie "Pandorum". never seen it before, so i'm not sure if it'll be a good gift or not...oh well. as for my parents, they didn't really care if i got them anything, so i didn't
for me, i hope i get: -a black buck skull for a great addition to my collection of skulls, pelts, etc. -a nice wall mount from Van Dyke's Taxidermy for that skull -two wolf claws to make into earrings (i had snakefang earrings, but i lost one when i went camping over last summer. so i'm making wolf claw earrings to make up for it) - an Impending Doom T-shirt. i'm starting to love the band as much as BTA and DH. so a shirt from them would be much needed

My sister and I got my parents some nice clothes and a gift card for Red Lobster. I got my sister a book by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I also bought Kekal's The Habit of Fire, Lengsel's Solace, and Believer's Gabriel for my bandmates. Hopefully, I'll get a DMD gift certificate.

So, I may as well use this thread for what I actually got:
- awesome skirt from Dave - money and gift vouchers (will probably get a mixture of clothes and wedding-related stuff with these) - a couple of books I wanted (Maya by Jostein Gaarder, and a slow cooker recipe book) - an Olafúr Arnalds single on vinyl - two different editions of the Methodist Hymn Book (with tunes- I heart alto parts)
I'm blessed. But most of all I'm happy to have spent time with parents, siblings, grandparents and Dave. ^.^

I got a double boiler, three bottles of hot sauce and lots of lovely cash that I used to buy a guitar. I figured there's no better time than the present to learn a third instrument.

How sad! I got a sweet gun case, Best Buy gift certificate (which I used to buy myself a new iPod touch since I fried my old one), Place of Skull's latest album, a cool Benchmade t-shirt, Colt belt buckle, and some assorted candy, amongst some other knick-knacks. My birthday's coming up soon so my parents ordered me the Sawol and Parakletos albums which I'm stoked about.

My family thinks getting presents with Christmas is a silly American thing. Ah well, we Dutch have our own holidays I suppose, we don't really have a need for santa and presents with Christmas. (Though in recent times it has become increasingly popular over here.)
