I love Christmastime, so I was pumped when I found out about the 12 Days of Blogging link up hosted by Kendra over at Be a Lighthouse and Lauren at Lot 48. While I'm going to try to link up for all twelve prompts, let's be honest - that may not happen.

Over the years, I have received some pretty awesome gifts, because my family is the best.

The first memorable gift I remember was a brand new bike when I was seven, which I discovered under the Christmas tree in the middle of the night when I got up to go pee. That bike got a ton of usage until I had a horrific bike wreck two years later, which caused me to still be unable to ride a bike without being terrified.

Another wonderful gift I received for Christmas was a couple years ago. It was a large canvas of a papillon puppy that looks just like my dog, Mo. He lives at my parents', but I love him so very much (enough that I actually have a tattoo of him). It still hangs on my wall. Now I just need a similar one for our cat, Courage.

Another favorite over the last few years was an amazing Elf Christmas mug. I still use it regularly, all throughout the year!

Last year for Christmas, Andre got me the illustrated version of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, which was the best. (Fingers crossed for Chamber of Secrets this year!)

    1. Yeah. She's so sweet and fluffy. I love her! :)
      And yes, it was perfect (and it wasn't even personalized. My sister just found it at Ross or TJ Maxx! So check there!).

  3. These are all such great and meaningful gift ideas! Mugs that remind you of something you love are always such fun things to get and I would love the illustrated HP books!
