We had our annual gift exchange yesterday and ate dinner at the Rotunda. They actually close the kitchen a little after 5:00 pm. Our reservations were at 4:30 so we didn't actually start eating until 5:30ish. We were the last ones to leave the restaurant. There are six of us that do this every year.
Here is a picture of what we each received from each other:
--a mirror compact (made of thai silk); victoria's secret underwear (it says "i love pink cupcakes"); shu uemura mascara; and benefit bronzer--
I gave little pink totes to my cousins stuffed with custom stationery from justjenndesigns and silver letter openers from see jane work.
Here are pictures:

I can't believe the holidays just came and gone. I hope everyone has a Happy New Year!
You all give such nice gifts! Your tote bags are lovely.

Love the tote and everything in it, what a sweet idea to have an annual gift exchange post Christmas. Hope you had a fantastic time and wishing you a wonderful New Year!

Love the tote and your use of colours! I have three sisters and I think they all would love to receive gifts like this. Thanks for the inspiration :)
happy 2007!
