Thread to post what you got this year.

My wife and I got new floors. Not sexy, but by far the most we've ever dropped for each other.

My parents gave me the normal money. Usually they give money and gold toe socks or candy crap I don't care for. This year they surprised the heck out of me by giving me a knife as well. Beautiful drop point.

I was looking it over and saw initials that weren't mine on there, but they were my grandfather's, who passed away when I graduated HS. Super awesome dude who did two tours in the pacific during WWII.

They got it when he died and didn't give it to me because we weren't hunters but I picked it up later in life. Now that the boys hunt with me they wanted to pass it down.

Super stunned because I don't think I've gotten a thoughtful gift from them since I got a sega genesis in 3rd grade.

Always cool when you get stuff like that. My Grandmother in the last few years has been kind of giving us all things like that. Last Christmas she gave me my Great-Grandmother's old sewing kit.

Will be opening something small on Christmas Eve with the parents then everything else on Christmas Day at my Grandmother's. Me and HJJ will exchange gifts when he comes up Saturday (and he's a good gift giver so I'm excited ).

Presents are sitting by the tree right now--not sure what wifey got me (don't care), but I got her a Nikon camera she's been wanting for a couple of years now. Thing was crazy expensive for an Uncle Sam budget, but I'm pretty sure she has no idea I splurged on it for her.

I black fridayed a canon dslr as a surprise. I've played with it more than her.

My December sucks on the gift giving. Her Birthday, Christmas, and anniversary are all within 30 days of each other.

I got her a Canon 5d. I'm pretty sure I'm getting a 4K TV since I've whined about it for six months.

Those are the best kinds of gifts!

She's a shutterbug, though. I don't really fool around with cameras much besides whatever's on my phone. She's welcome to her dslr camera (had no idea what that was until I started researching what to buy )

Yeah. I was thinking with my poor baptist virgin dick at the time and wanted to get laid sooner than later. January 1st.

Dumbest mistake of my life.

I know I'm getting a new DSLR tomorrow that I'm excited about. Not sure what else besides money and a new accessory for my KitchenAid mixer.

Got a Tag watch, some cash and a nice shirt from the in laws, some cash from the parents.

Have some stuff under the tree Even though I insisted not to buy me anything. Guess I'll be fighting crowds tomorrow when I get off.
