EVERYONE home for Christmas!
Oh, a hangover and slippers as well.

And I almost forgot... "The Bro On The Go" Which is a pocket sized "Bro-Code" which Barney Stinson always talks about on the show "How I met your mother"

A quote :lol: - "A Bro In Outer Space: In a gravity-free environment, one Bro isn't always expected to Bro out another Bro by letting the said Bro go first. For example, if the former Bro had the chance to be the first on the Moon but was like, "No go ahead Bro,it's all you." That's just stupid Bro." :lol:

I had a great Christmas with all my friends and family. Just odd though because two days after, everyone close to me just left town for jobs, school and military deployment. Was fun while it lasted.

Kind of flashy but I love anything blue.

It also brings my ever growing shoe collection to 8 nice pairs.

And since gamestop had their buy 2 get one free sale, I ended up buying

Import Tuner Challenge
Midnight Club LA
and Shaun White Snowboarding for my 360.
 
Great Christmas for us this year! Favorite time of the year, and I always try to spoil everyone (got my parents a cruise, girlfriend got a different cruise and everything she wanted for the house, etc) and usually get spoiled in return. Its nice being the first born/grand child/son-in-law :D

-6 PS3 games - Assassins Creed II, God of War collection, FEAR 2, Skate 2, NFS:Shift and inFAMOUS
-DVD's - Nirvana:Live at Reading, Robot Chicken season 4, G.I. JOE and Horton hears a Who (:lol: my girlfriend is awesome)
-18V Cordless drill (bye-bye extension cord!)
-49pc Impact socket set (so awesome)
-3.5amp 1/2" drive Impact wrech (no more driving to my parents, sweet!)
-RC Helicopter
-2 1/18th cars and 2 1/24th cars
-2 different body wash kits (new scrubber ftw)
-Limited edition GM playing cards
-Stand up freezer (parents are beef farmers so it will soon be stuffed with steaks)
-Big thick socks and underwear (cold feet ftl)
-So many chocolates/cookies/chocolate bars and candies I'll probably go back to work 40 lbs heavier :lol:

Theres more, but I can't seem to remember everything right now...

My favorite of all was a home made cookie snowman that my girlfriends grandma made me with a note attached saying how much I mean to her (she says I'm her favorite grandson :lol:), and thanks me for being the exact person she would have picked to be with her grand daughter. :)
 
I got way more baby stuff than I know what to do with. I'm serious too. We barely fit it all in the car. The closet in the nursery is now full. And that was just from my mom. Everyone else bought a few baby things, but didn't go crazy.

Then I got this:

But to be honest, it will get much more use from my directionally challenged wife. I am good just using Google Maps on my phone.

My in-laws gave me a very nice sweater, which I will never wear because it is cashmere and thus must be dry cleaned, which I don't do very often.

And my mother and grandmother combined gave my wife and I a ton of cash that I used for all this:

So, I had nothing exciting to open, but I did get to buy my exciting stuff.
 
Nice video camera! We were thinking of getting one on boxing day, but without researching it first I didn't feel comfortable with laying down cash for one. 70x optical is pretty good, how do you find the rest of the camera?

Nice, same one we have I think. I've made about three 200+ mile trips with it and only made one mistake from it, which was just an information overload on my part. Complicated ramps near St. Louis, night, window tint, heavy traffic, and a very busy map led me to take the wrong exit, but we found the first possible exit to get turned around and back on our way, so it wasn't bad.
 
Finally got my The Beatles Remastered Boxset today to finish out my Christmas list :D

From,
Chris.
 
It seems chocolate oranges are popular christmas presents. My mom and I both got one.
Aside from that, I also got a PSP go and GTPSP, Pictionary, COD MW2, way too much candy, some art supplies, some magazines, and a bunch of grammar/thesaurus/rhyming books (yes really, and yes I like them).
