Scruffy's siblings didn't until the oldest sister decided to do that this year and then told us, basically saying "hey, I bought y'all something so buy me something"

So, the rest of us got together and took a shitty picture and we will give that to her.

Brag: Gopro Hero 4 session, Dromida FPV drone (first drone), some gift cards.

Watching my 8 year get old excited about her Santa gift (I think she's on the fence on belief but the presents aren't questioned).

Gripe: I forgot the beer fridge was empty for this AM.

A thread for bragging about your Christmas gifts, and then people down-voting your brag about your Christmas gifts?

About $4600 (me & wife combined) in cash (I think will end up at $5k), bought myself eight new Windows, there's some Apple stuff to be opened( think another Apple TV), and I'm still sourcing the wife a "certified" used Arc Trainer.

I spent my first Christmas morning with my first son. A once in a lifetime event and I'm on cloud nine. Y'all can have your materialistic things but this has been the most awesome Christmas ever. Merry Christmas, everyone!




I missed my daughters first Christmas because of obligations.

It's something I'll never get back and would trade all my materialistic possessions to get back.

Haven't missed another one since and don't plan to.

I got a handpainted Christmas tree ornament from my 1 year old nephew. It's pretty much just splotches of paint. Not gonna lie, it's pretty awesome. Boom. Beat that.

8 is about right for suspicion. She'll keep quiet a year or 2, though.

Got an awesome skinning knife, some Mafia movies, and got to give some cool stuff out to everyone.

Merry Christmas, OT.

Not my brag...

A friend of ours bought their 12 year old son a 1966 Ford Mustang. It's a fixer upper. He got a bunch of tools as well. Gonna take him 4 years to just fix it up
