I got spoiled this year.. I didn't have much this year for spending, but I got spoiled in return. What did everyone else get?

Big Bang Theory season 2, a coffee bean grinder, and a bag of Dark roast coffee beans from Starbucks.

Ratchet straps and a pair of work gloves.

In my stocking I got a chocolate orange, a 12" pry bar, a windshield cleaner, and a charger/transmitter for an Ipod which plugs into your cigarette lighter.

I got a new pair of pajamas, as well as a very warm sweater.

And a 68 Charger model kit, good quality.

My mom also bought the family an Espresso machine with her Quality Foods points. Quality Foods is a Vancouver Island based grocery store, which gives you 'points' every time you buy groceries. She had millions of points stored up and we always teased her about never using them.

Let's see everyone else's gifts!
 
i got a variety pack of calvin klein cologne and a memory foam pillow. but my best gift was the looks on my kids faces this morning. merry christmas
 
We didnt exchange this year, just gave the kids gifts. Oh by the way isnt that "coffee grinder" a bud buster??
 
I got a hide a seek game going. My son got his first present and ripped that wrapper off so fast i still havent found it. Been looking for the past 3 hours.
 
We don't exchange gifts anymore. If I need something,I'll go get it.
 
I bought this for myself as I will try to start farming in the next year or 2 and this makes it now 3 tractors. A Super66 Row Crop, Standard 77 with loader and now this 88 Row Crop.

I will be picking up the 3 bottom trailer plow for it Monday afternoon.
 
We didn't have the money to get gifts this year. Couldn't even afford Christmas cards either. My apologies to those of you who sent one to us and we could not reciprocate. We usually send out a lot, but it was just not in the cards....heh. Been a tough year for us with Kitty's heart troubles and everything else we've gone through. We got a pretty tree though and we are both together and alive. We have a small number of really good friends and all of the bills are on time. Yeah, we could have some extra dough, it would be nice, but we still have blessings in abundance and we are thankful for them.

That's very cool! Post some progress pictures when you get around to it. I like stuff like this.

Glad to hear everything is going good with you two.

My grandmother was sent to the emergency room last night for stomach pains, and the meds they gave her made her feel even worse. We're hoping she is able to have a comfortable Christmas.
 
Just the love from my wife! We are thankful for everything we have even our inlaws! Oh and she got my a Iphone 4s
 
My family doesn't really celebrate Christmas. Generally we get one person in the family a gift of something they actually need. My gift was simply this from my father:

It's just a cheap gun rest but it certainly looks like it'll be neat to use. It's a Hyskore DLX Precision Rest.

It also come with this:

Only gift was a HK p2000. Been lusting after this handgun for my families personal protection for awhile. Thanks Santa & will feel much more comfortable heading into 2012 in these uncertain political and economic times. God bless to all members struggling financially especially during the Holidays. Times will get better.

We don't exchange, except with the kids. My son found me a cool "Richard Petty" cardboard cutout. It is lifesize, and will be my new drinking buddy in the shop. He also got me a "Petty" pocket knife.
 
Since other members are firearms friendly on the site, i went and purchased this German Mauser, 9mm Luger from a collector in Oklahoma.
Also got a lot of suspension and brake parts, from the Northern California, self serv Pick-N-Pull wrecking yards.

I got a day off and got to see my mom and immediate family....
Could not ask for more!
Merry Christmas
 
My dad got my a much needed pypes exhaust with thrush welded mufflers. started installing it today, could fit a bit better but pretty happy so far anyway. hopefully its done tomorrow.
 
My family, we don't want a lot. Just get together a few times in December to celebrate. My Mom gave me cash, brother and sister-in-law spoiled me, took me out for sushi, gave me gourmet coffee, a bottle of Bulleit bourbon, and a jar of local honey. Aunt sent me a box of chocolates, she makes them herself every year. Work gave a small bonus, and so did a couple people I worked for during the year...nice of them to do that. I feel very blessed.
