My birthday lands just 5 days after Christmas, and often I will get a combined gift from my family. This year my sister was heading to Anaheim - Whistler - Vancouver - Las Vegas - Santa Monica, straight after Boxing Day so it was decided by all that my gifts would be a little light on Christmas Day with the promise of good things to come once they returned.
I would trust my sister to buy me anything; she has great taste and a knack for finding interesting and unusual things. Well I just want to say the wait was worth it.
Here's my little Christmas / birthday haul fresh from the USA (thank you Aussie dollar for being so damn good LOL)
Clinique skincare (check) Canadian maple syrup (check) ginger room spray - the best smell ever (check) my signature perfume (check) and...oh, what's that in the little blue box?
I was so surprised to see that come out of the bag.
And to find these beautiful earrings. Thanks family, totally wasn't expecting a treat like that :)
And just for fun, here are Mickey's ears on Byron, only they are Mickey's butt. Ha!
So I can now say I had a very happy birthday indeed :)
A wonderful haul indeed! The Clinique is my favourite too - and the earrings, classic. LOVE that hat. Had to laugh at the maple syrup :)

Re: [the midnight scrapper] Lee Currie submitted a comment to it was so worth the wait...
For years we ate fake maple syrup and then we tried the real stuff and our lives were changed LOL And just look at that bottle...makes it taste even better!!
