A bunch of little $hit and few small things she asked for plus 10 $100 bills stapled together in a nice fanned out array in a MUSHY Christmas card.
After all ..one size fits all...the colors always perfect...and you know she won't return it

Merry Christmas people

hp500efi, You're right about that..but ours is grown but I did get him and extended warrantee on his new 'Burban that put a smile on his face

Santa was good to the wife this year. She got the pond kit she wanted. (She wants a pond in the back yard. ) And she wanted a digital camera. Now I do not have to ask friends to take pics and email them to me.

Christmas was good!!

This year we decided to NOT get each other anything since she wants a new house. I got her a shorty leather jacket and a bunch of stuff for the kids to give her along with some gift certificates for her to go shopping for clothes.

I asked for nothing this year cause I just got too much stuff already. I got a bunch of stuff anyhow.

Kids had a huge haul.

Last year was the YukonXL for her so I reckon my average is still pretty high.

Ditto. How about a poll for the kids. Waite, never mind, I dont even want to know.

Well I had one of the best Christmases Ever!! I got to sleep late, Mark made Breakfast Made for Me. Got to open some presents, Which I had to say were Extremely Thought out. CDs of bands I liked in the 80's. Then He made Dinner for Me too. Steaks, Artichoke, Asparagas & corn. MMMMMMM He loves Me very much!!

I Love Him very much too

Any chance we can start a new forum for Nasty and Nebulous? This is getting a little sick.

Ha Ha. Just kidding. You guys have a merry xmas.
