Our Christmas gift to each other is our December trip each year. I gave my brother and sister-in-law (who couldn't join us this year!) the Steve Simonsen calendar and a copy of St. John Magazine. While not St. John related - look at what one of our employees gave us! Will look great at the lake house. (if you look close you can see a reflection of a Skinny's coaster in the sail!!!)

The 2009 issue of St John Magazine was a gift to me a just bit before the holidays, and I have relished every page... another "keeper" beautifully done... so appreciated!

PA Girl, I got the Canon Rebel also, plus a zoom lens for it. I am so excited to play with it. I hate the bridge camera I've been using lately (still like my powershot 800 though).

lazylane, that's a pretty sculpture, and cccasebolt, cool earrings. You all got terrific St. John gifts! :D

My gift to Ron and I are our January and May trips to St. John. I also gave Ron a Steve Simonsen calendar and a lb of Marrakesh Express coffee from St. John Spice. I gave my brother and his fiance a calendar and St. John magazine also. They will travel with us in May. Thanks, StJohnRuth for your very prompt delivery :)

While we are experiencing one of our few White Christmas's, we are keeping our eye on the southern horizon.

My wife had to fight hard to get this gag gift at the office party.

The short answer is that my wife gave it to me.

The longer answer is that she went to a party at work where they were to bring gag gifts. When someone else opened it, she traded what she had to get it. Others also wanted it but she prevailed.

Our 4-year-old grand daughter also loved it. She told us that Santa, "worked very hard last night. He needs to take a rest."

Panasonic Lumix from my wife for snorkeling pics (no more hi-tech baggies) and we both got a massage session from our kids while on island with Nomadic Spas. Can't wait to open both again in June :D

Good luck with your search.

It must be a Jim thing.

Don got a tie-tac with a petroglyph from the Colorful Corner.

It actually wasn't meant to be a Christmas gift. We picked it up in November. It was carefully wrapped in tissue paper with some other small items. A few days after we were home, Don went to put it on and couldn't find it. We then realized that we both forgot about it and it must have been thrown away; of course this was the day the trash was picked up.

I arranged for Robin and Peter to send me out another one so that I could surprise him. They mailed out another one, but felt so bad that we lost the first one that they didn't charge me. Another example of the niceness of the folks in St. John.

I got something Off Topic - the Blanchards At the Beach cook book - Yum!

Just about everyone on our Christmas list got spice/coffee/doo-dads from St. John Spice!

Not specific to St. John, but I got a nice digital photo frame for 4,000 of my St. John photos.
I only have 3,000, so I get to come back :wink:
