I don't know whether I should post mine yet since the gifts kind of give away the country it was sent from.

Haha, awesomeI like that mug Safila, very cool
We usually do presents here on Christmas Eve (which was last night), although since my brother couldn't make it to my mum's until today we did them today. However, because I went to my mum's yesterday and stayed the night, I took my secret Santa present with to open on Christmas Eve. Long story short (too late)
SimbaTheMighty was my Secret Santa. He got me some delicious looking Finnish chocolate, and also this cool figure of an Ivory-billed Woodpecker with a nifty wooden stand. It was hilarious because I pulled the stand out of the box first and my hand was covering the gold label so I had no idea what the heck it was
Here's a pic

Omg, Amanda, you have the most perfect neatest giftwrapping I think I ever saw, LOL.
My Secret Santa was HasiraKali, and I have to confess, I opened mine already last night--what, Christmas Eve counts as the holiday already!

This thing has been a constant source of Ebay regret for me. They used to be for sale everywhere (IDK if they released them with the 10 yr anniversary or what) so I always passed them over. Suddenly when I went to look for them a couple years ago, they were only available in groups/lots. Never just the one I wanted, annoyed the crap out of me so I gave up looking for it! Plus, unexpected but totally awesome, it's the same size/scale as the fantastic Shenzi figurine Leor made last year out of dental cement! So it may or may not have bourn a new obsession to find a Banzai to match :P
Just when I thought I'd be asking for more normal stuff next yearJ/k, as always, it has been a lot of fun sharing Christmas with and on the Internet! ^^

That's awesome

Ok, I guess I can post this here now then...
Azerane was my Secret Santa. That's twice in a row now, I believe.As you can see, the gifts give away the country it was from. But they're great, I especially like the purse and the fridge magnet. The purse will come very well in handy for my trips abroad.
Thanks so much Azzy!And thanks for the picture too, it was a very nice addition.

Yay!! I'm so glad that you like it and that it came in time for Christmas! I don't remember when I posted it but it felt a little late (I was waiting for some slightly cooler weather so the chocolate wouldn't get destroyed! But it got there and that's the main thing. I almost wanted to keep the magnet for myself but had to resist

I'm glad you like it!
My person was Safila! She sent me a super cool handmade Doctor Who card, a 4th Doctor apron, and a cute little penguin plushie. I'll add a photo later.
We are so much more complicated than our names.
*Team Night Sky*
Por favor, manténgase alejado de mi chocolate.
If you're not here to party, get out of the teacup.
CGW was my secret santa again. Though I heard she kind of revealed herself before by asking if someone wanted to trade I could not remember that so it was a surprise to me XD. She got me TLK pin as everyone knows I collect pins. It's limited edition pin of 1500.
I love it. Thank you so much. And as I Audra and her mom got me 2 TLK plates I finished also the collection of Bradford plates I been collection though not too actively. So it was really nice Christmas for me as far as adding on to our TLK collection. Though the pins going to add on to the 2lb of pins I'm already drag along when ever I in Disney parks, but hey... IT'S WORTH IT!

Yes, you were oblivious still!
I didn't know you could have the same exchange two years in a row, when we do these at work they make you redistribute/rechoose the gifts if you end up with the same person so I sort of blabbed x_x
So between that and knowing you don't have to ask for *just* TLK stuff anymore (dur-hur, eureka moment!), by next year I should finally have this down, LOL. XD Third time's the charm! :P

Still, with the website we use, even the person organizing it, doesn't know who got who, but yes, the website can't keep track of previous years, so it is possible to get the same person.
There is the option to type in names of who can't select who, such as if Sharifu and Sadiki didn't want to get each other you can set that up as an option, but we tend just to keep it random. We technically could set it up so that next year we wouldn't be able to get the same people as this year, but I don't mind too much. We've got such a small group that once you start limiting who a person can pick, it can become too narrow of a field left in my opinion.
That which you manifest is before you.
Yeah, no, not necessary. I just never thought about it before until I opened the same person on the email, I thought I had to trade off with someone x_x

I'm so glad you like that mug Safila, I bought that at Disneyland when I went there last October with Petteri and Dan. I wanted to find something from Alice in Wonderland for you while I was there.Oh I didn't think we were meant to say who our secret santa was.. well seeing Azzy has.. lol mine was ...drum roll... Sharifu.
I collect Alice in Wonderland stuff, so love my mug
My Secret Santa was King Simba! She got me a little velociraptor figure/toy.
I like it, but, I already have that exact velociraptor toy...
Thank you Tara, I really appreciate the gift, velociraptors are one my favorite dinosaurs, because of Jurassic Park, haha...
Well he does send a photo to his Secret Santa in his wishlist with the pins he already has. It's a good idea to do so since he has so many pins already.That's a very cool pin
Well actually I guess it can keep track of previous years, because in October I got an email from that website saying:
"Hi Sharifu,
It's time to draw names again!
With the link in this email you can easily draw names again with the same Group that you set up last year. The names and email addresses are already filled out for you. We will make sure you don't draw the same person as last year."
I had no idea till then that you can do that with that website. Although I don't know if this is a good idea, not ever getting the same person again because our group is so small. And I'm not sure we can add and/or subtract people from the list of the previous year. I bet you can though.
Thank you to the talented KanuTGL for my avatar!
My Lion King Fan-Art
My Secret Santa was Leor!
Avatar drawn by Azerane - thank you! :3
So annoyed ... The gift I got my person got sent back to where it came from *sigh*person said it was impossible that someone was always home, so doesn't understand why the post service sended it back ... bozo's

Santa just came!
My SS was Thiago.
He got me a DVD from a Brazilian singer Michel Telo. I think most of you know the song "Nosa"?
I really love the Brazilian language, and I think his music is just happy and cheerfull.
It's really sweet he remembered I liked this guy.
The card has a Brazilian text in it, which he translated in English.
Really love the card, it's so pretty!
Thank you!
