The first Christmas after my husband and I married, my sister-in-law bought me a flannel nightgown that covered EVERYTHING from my throat to my toes! Oh, and don't forget the itchy robe too! A couple of Christmases later, her daughter bought me underwear!! Underwear as a Christmas gift?! Good Lord!

Answer 3

One year, my father kept telling my 12 year-old twin sister and I that he had the best gift for us - ever....he drove us nuts with anticipation.
We thought for sure, bikes!
When we finally received our gift it was an oil painting of the two of us. My father actually paid money to have a local artist paint a scary portrait of an old school picture of us with disgustingly horrible 80's hair, missing teeth, and a purple background.
This picture hung over our living room mantle for all of our friends and boyfriends to stare at over the years.
It's now over my father's bed. he still thinks it is the greatest tribute to his wonderful daughters. I hope to inherit it when he passes on and use it for target practice, or at least lose it.

bought my daughter this little zen water garden in a tiny box (approx. 2 in x 2 in box) for a stocking stuffer one year. when she opened it there was a round black disk with sides a bag with 3 tiny pebbles and you put the water in the disk an it had a cord with a ball at the end. you squeeze this bulb and the water didnt flow like a fountain it spit water in the air. We laughed so hard she wanted to keep it because it was soooooooo stupid. bought it at borders book store. This was suppose to be soothing!

My grandma has this weird thing about wallets. She always gets me and my cousins wallets for Christmas, and she puts a one dollar bill inside of it LOL. They were always kind of ugly, but I kept all of them, because c'mon, my grandma gave them to me. And of course I kept the dollars LOL.
