Varda Oiolosseo · 12-24-2002, 03:09 PM

I don't know but I'm sure they will be nice and a few will be LOTR!

eowyngirl14 · 12-24-2002, 04:29 PM

I hope that I get lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of lotr presents... If I don't I will go buy them for myself with my leftover birthday money!!

Radagast The Brown · 12-24-2002, 04:32 PM

I think I'll get a pizza. (

Elven Archer · 12-24-2002, 06:38 PM

my uncle jsut stopped by with my present. it was cooking pans and stuff cause i like to cook and when he got here i was making cookies. i think i got a charm bracelet from my mom and dad. and my sister got me a hat and something gold. she got me the hat as an early Christmas present and i don't know what the other thing she got me is,i just know it's gold.i don't like it when i know what i'm getting, it takes all the fun out of it. but i only know what some of my gifts are.

Duddun · 12-25-2002, 10:48 AM

I got the TTT soundtrack!!!I haven't opened any others yet.

Elf Girl · 12-25-2002, 11:03 AM

I got FotR soundrack, the red one-volume LotR, the green Hobbit to match it, and the rare, out-of-print The Road Goes Ever On And On. (I'm learning to play the song of that name on my flute as we post.)

Also some non-LotR items, but they're all pretty boring, except for a guide to calligraphy which I hope to apply to Elvish script.

Lizra · 12-25-2002, 01:56 PM

It's done, I'm happy! My mom got me a gorgeous new coat. It's super thick lush acrylic pile, reversible. One side is solid black, the other black, grey and white, a scene of mountains and pines weaved into it. It has a great "Strider" style hood, and is three quarter length, perfect for jeans or ankle length skirts. It reminds me of Mouton Lamb (anyone remember those coats?) I also got a silky night thing

, J-Lo "Glow" (yea!), Elizabeth Arden "Beauty" Mmmmmm!, a "Flower Fairy" statue for the garden, and a homemade calender. I bought myself several Lotr items!

Curunír · 12-25-2002, 02:18 PM

I've got a CD-bon.

Lubyla · 12-25-2002, 02:51 PM

I got TTT soundtrack, A Legolas poster, a TT Teaser poster, my very own phone, a digital camera(the credit card sized one), and a Replica of Arwen's Evenstar Necklace.

***azalea*** · 12-25-2002, 03:19 PM

I got a sword.

eowyngirl14 · 12-25-2002, 03:24 PM

I am sooooo luckey. I got the special edition exdended version of fotr, and I got the soundtrack to TTT. I also got 2 reversable movie posters from my parents, and a poster from the 15 (or some other year) aniiversery of Tolkiens publishing the Hobbit! It matches my room perfectly! My Dad got my the PS2 TTT game!

samwise of the shire · 12-25-2002, 04:38 PM

I got the sheet music to "When in Dreams" from the FOTR soundtrack from my little sister and I was so happy I started crying. I also got the American radio adaption of TTT from My aunt as well as a wall calendar (something I was SOO happy to get. I was THRILLED to DEATH) with pics from TTT (Two Frodo Pics...I couldn't be happier). Some fuzzy posters from My mom and the veiwing of TTT on the 18th counted as part of my Christmas too.
$80.00 from my other grandma and aunt (some to savings and church the rest to...you got it...MORE LOTR stuff) a box of Ferrero Rocher chocolates, and some hair clips. Oh and another veiwing of LOTR from my Big Brother and with my Big brother on the 30th.
But I got one of the best gifts last night...peace and joy. Something I hadn't felt at Christmas for quite some time. Last year was darksome I guess. This year though it felt good not to feel enslaved to my presents or how many presents I got.
Cheers *lifts up mug of hot cider*

Celebréiel · 12-25-2002, 04:53 PM

I got a harcover Lord of the rings book, the extended Fotr movie and a few old 'Samwise journals' with some awesome drawings!

Merry x-mas everyone!

Lizra · 12-25-2002, 04:56 PM

I think I have that journal too. The pictures are so beautiful!

Shadowfax · 12-25-2002, 07:28 PM

Azalea you got a sword!?!! Too cool!

I got the first 2 books in the History of Middle Earth Series! Yay! I also got pajamas, chocolate, etc, oh! and some caligraphy pens...

...

Renille · 12-25-2002, 09:31 PM

I got this really cool CD collection which has JRR and Christopher Tolkien reading selections from the books. (Mostly poems.) I was thrilled. I kept telling myself... "I'm actually listening to Tolkien's voice! This is wonderful!" Yeah. That was fun. Then I got a coat and a CD player and a bracelet and my class ring and a book and $45. It was quite a good Christmas.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

***Khamûl*** · 12-25-2002, 11:11 PM

The only LotR-related thing I got was two sculpted figures of Frodo and Sam. They're going on my mantle right next to the sculpture of Gandalf.

Gwaimir Windgem · 12-25-2002, 11:22 PM

I got all my presents early.

I got a PS2, a ticket to the noon showing of TTT on the 17th, and the FotR extended edition!

TinuvielChild · 12-25-2002, 11:47 PM

Grr. I got lots and lots of wonderful pressies, but NONE, not one of them was LotR-related! Eh, well. Now that I have $120 worth of gift certificates to Border's Books and Music, I can buy myself lots of pretty LotR stuff. Happy.
