Hmmmm....no, I can't...incredible work, though...:smokin:

What's the correct answer? :huh:

A trip to the Outer Banks in May with a house on the ocean from my wife's family to us. A family vacation from my parents also. Going to be tough to decide where to take it and when. Some nice cold weather gear for winter steelheading also.

That would be Ryan's Dad.

I recieved a nice blue Fish Hard/Live Long hoodie from Joe Lyons store. Block Island version, a great heavy sweatshirt. also a new 32" flat screen for the bedroom.

That cat looks my old big boy. Died in 2006. Never forget him.

And Ryan Smith would be...:huh:

Sorry, Flap, apparently I'm not one of the plugnoscenti - I guess that's RM?

Got to spend christmas in the morning with my grams who's been in a nursing home for the past 6 or so months, was nice to see her home again :kewl: Lotsa clothing this year. Got a pair of those ugg boots, and yes they are the Van Stall of boots :D

Great Success! :)

got a sweet Red Sox jacket
100.00 bass pro certificate
red sox hat and glove set. not mittens
khakis for work, socks..

but that pales in comparison to see the joy on my 5 yr. olds face.
That was my best gift.
Genuine happiness and gratefulness for every gift he received..

My wife did pretty well too, after all she married me.

Nice George. My son's response to seeing Santa's gifts was "Holy Crap!!". Too funny, couldn't even yell at him.

best gift was watching my boys open their presents up..........even though Jacob (7 months) played with the wrapping paper

My lovely wife got me a work sharp 3000 tool sharpener. It works very well. Turned a plug with it yesterday right after sharpening my skew chisel and it is so smooth it barely needs sanding.
But most importantly I got to spend time with both sides of the family (and still am) and enjoying that the most.
