They are mostly enjoyed by someone else or stored at my mom’s attic. My boyfriend got this cute stuffed hedgehog from his mother for a Christmas present. He was 25 at the time. It’s not hidious, but every year my boyfriend tells her we want practical gifts and money or gift cards are way better than useless knick-knacks. I guess she just can’t help herself…</p> -Submitted by Mohttp://whydidyoubuymethat.com/post/22126479884http://whydidyoubuymethat.com/post/22126479884Mon, 30 Apr 2012 12:01:46 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2zmesAdUw1qd0gbyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I just recieved this gift from my grandparents, who took a recent trip to the West Coast.
