Thumbs up My LOTR Christmas Contributions....

Well, thanks to my parents, I will now have no trouble whatsoever figuring out what day it is .

My mother gave me the LOTR Trilogy edition day by day calendar, and my father gave me "A Guide to Middle-Earth: Exploring the Worlds of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings from the Book by Robert Foster d-b-d calendar.

I also recieved something I didn't think existed--A Hallmark Keepsake ornament in the form of Frodo Baggins. Now all I need to do is find a Sam....

(edit)
PS: OH !!! My very best Christmas present came from my brother and sister in law, and had nothing to do with LOTR whatsoever ! Forgive the off-topicness but

I'M GONNA BE AN AUNT !!!!!!!

We now return you to your regularly scheduled Collectibles discussion.

(end edit)

Congratulations, Samwise! Babies are so much fun... Especially when they're related to you, but not yours.


Anywhee, back on topic:
Thanks to my wonderful grandmother, I am now the proud owner of the Return of the King Extended Edition! Happiness!

My Christmas was most joyous when I opened my last gift - revealing a replica of Sting! Spiffy-ness!!! In addition to that - I have several of the bookmarks, all the movies, the trilogy + Sim. in paperback, Monopoly, Checkers/Tic-tac-toe, playing cards and plently of posters. I saw the coolest thing (I'm weird) at Media Play and had to grab one. Lord of the Rings Legos! Yikes - I'd share a picture but I can't get it to upload...

I have asked for an LOTR Page-A-Day "Trilogy Edition" calendar for Christmas.
I really want that as well... I need to go hunting for a calander tomorrow...

That's perfectly all right, I wouldn't mind having the LOTR legos, so I'm weird, too.

Hey, like your avatar !

Hope you can find a calendar !

Good luck, I tried shopping for the same item last year around the same time, and it was on backorder even on the internet! I guess the "after christmas period." is the worst time to try buying anything LOTR related. I wish you good luck with your search though. Try www.borders.com or www.calendars.com (Hopefully the links work)

Speaking of shopping woes:
I recieved a TTT video from my brother and his wife for christmas. Unfortuneatly, already have one, so I exchanged it @ Target for a $5 gift card. All the games and toys pertaining to LOTR that I had seen Thanksgiving weekend were sold out! Oh well, I guess I'll try shopping at target.com

I feel a little foolish at my age for having barbies, but yeah I got the Galadriel barbie for christmas! She's simply beautiful and well displayed which is good because I don't like taking my figures out of the package.
