I saw my entire family and everyone got along. Everyone is healthy so what more could I ask for. Seeing my son open his presents was awesome. Nothing better, I could have received nothing and been so happy although my wife did spoil me.

BF got digi, NICE (John R, book TONS more bandwidth ;) )

JPI, dremel, handy :D I have been using that for the cup on my pencils :) there is also about a zillion other things you can do with a dremel.

Santa, (well, Mrs. Santa), insists I go pick out the drill press I want! And the vice, and some new bits too.... I guess that last minute trip to the jewelry store, paid off! :laughs:

I always thought you could whine with the best of 'em, why wait 4-5 months ?? :D

I got to experience the Joys of Christmas with my family with little bickering :D . I also got to watch the joys of Santa thru the eyes of a 4 year old :btu:

My family probably spoils me more than I try to do so to them. They always come up with creative curveball gifts I never expect. Among many things, I got a neat Cape Pond Ice hat and shirt (so now my 15 year old refers to me as Bugsy), really nice wading boots, Reading The Water (how she knew, I will never know), then yesterday with the in-laws I was blown away by a Cabela's tackle bag and a sizeable gift card to Home Depot which I'm hoping to use for something to get into making my own plugs.
Hope you all had a happy day.

Santa blessed my family as well. I had one of the best Christmas's ever. My kids we smiling and laughing almost the entire day..At least till their Christmas buzz wore off and then became over tired ;) Just seeing them enjoy everything was so much fun. I love putting their stuff together...One of my best years ever....

I didn't get the saltiga I was hoping for, but it was a very quiet, relaxed Christmas day. Just me and my girl, curled up watching Christmas movies (Elf, Bad Santa, Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story) in front of the fire for the whole day....it was great.

Yup,
He got me some tevas, a beautiful wine rack, and strangely enough he gave me a check, too...for breathable waders that is.
With all the other dough, I should be able to payy off the credit cards and fill the oil tank!!!
I'd like to be debt free by the time I bring the boat out of storeage. Should be able to do it now.
Merry Xmas everybody.

Santa was good to me and the family. Kids got spoiled (As Usual) and I got a Craftsman Drill Press, a Stocking full of Plugs, A "Cuss Jar" (7 years in the Navy gave me a Potty Mouth :D) and a few DVD's (including Speed Racer, entire 1st season and the Incredible Mr. Limpett).

Plus some Gift cards and a Great Custom Danny as of yesterday :D
