Have you opened any of your Christmas gifts yet?

Has anyone else opened their Christmas gifts yet? We were really psyched about xmas this year. We put the tree up on October 30. Two weeks ago, I was in the grocery store, and there were some Halloween Bratz dolls for $4. Bought that!! They were in a bargain bin with some $1 gift boxes (for two of them, shirt boxes). Wazoo! So I came home from the supermarket, and made my kid hide her eyes, and then all of a sudden, we had our FIRST XMAS GIFT UNDER THE TREE. I was psyched. Then my daughter grabbed the other gift box and said, can I have this . . . she took the other box, and then later in the evening, she took me over to the tree to show me . . .There were 2 Christmas presents now. One for me and one for my kid. I was so proud of both of us, I was ahead on the gift list (with a Bratz doll, no less), and one for mommy too! Perfect for Dec. 5. But then it came. I never saw it coming. But there it was. "Oh please mommy can we open the gifts." No way, it is nowhere near Christmas. But first of all, this was just my trial run gift, 5 dollars. I'll eventually spend $20 or $30 probably (wooo, big spender). And second of all . . .I want to know what I'm getting!!! I have to see what's in that box that my baby gave to me. So we opened em. She got (as I already told you) a Halloween Witch Bratz doll (very cute, has earrings). I got . . . a Hello Kitty coin purse. It is great, I love it, and I have my spare change in there right now. I can't even remember who must have given that to her, but he he he, it's been regifted and it's mine now!! Anybody else already have their gifts opened?

Hi there Way south. I have not opened any Christmas Gifts nor have my friends, girlfriend or parents. The thing is, except for my girlfriend's place where we already put up the Christmas Tree, i don't know of another except in the malls to be decorated already. I think that at my house we will put up the tree this week, and at my girlfriend's parents house (she doesn't live there) we will put it on 23 or 24th of December.
