Bobby played Godzilla and stomped on everything. I got him that baby grand piano and he loved it. I got some clothes, a winter classic jersey, and a pair of nicer headphones. Colleen went a little overboard on me, but I brought her out of the stone age with an android.

I got season 4 of mad men and season 3 of breaking bad on blu-ray, a led zeppelin book, and Assassins Creed.
Plus a bunch money to put into my house, so I'm probably getting a dishwasher and a gas fireplace which will sort of be a late Christmas gift.

My wife is awesome...I am now in the 3DS club! She also got me a sweet Futurama poster signed by Katey Sagal, Arkham City and Starfox 3DS. My mom got me a gamestop giftcard, WWE 12 for 360 and money, and my brother got me an Amazing Spider-Man glass clock for my office.

My wife got me some last minute bluray movies which I will be promptly returning. I'll keep a couple of them but I don't want the other ones and I feel like it was a waste of money. I feel bad because I didn't really tell her what I wanted because, frankly, I didn't really want anything. I got her a bracelet but she didn't want it so I'll be returning that as well. I also got her The Art of Learning by Josh Waitzkin (the boy Searching for Bobby Fischer was based off of). My uncle gave me a sweater that's too big and it's V-neck so I'm pretty sure I'll be returning that if I can. My parents gave us a gift card and some money. Maybe I'll got buy myself some more clothes post Christmas.

Actually, I lied. One thing I did want but my wife would not get me was piano lessons.

How am I the grinch? Because I'm returning the movies I don't want? She's making me return the bracelet.

We did decide to get each other the camera. That in itself is probably enough for this Christmas.

You're both the Grinch.

I forgot about the camera though, that is a nice enough gift, you're right!

Family gift was an iPad (which I'm sure will win me plenty of points around here). I picked up a few games for it, SuperBrothers Sword & Sworcery and Lost Winds being my two favorites so far.

My wife got me some Gucci cologne and Skyward Sword. My in-laws gave me a nice amount of cash (which is probably just going in the bank) and two cases of Blue Moon. My parents are coming over in a little but, so we'll exchange with them later.

Our daughter made out like a friggin bandit. Total "only-child" syndrome. Among many things she got a snow-board, Skylanders for Xbro360, the new Kirby, Marioland 3DS (which I'll be playing as well) and a bunch of other goodies.

Snowboard, nice. You probably want to get her a helmet too though.

Those aren't for snowboarding. You don't see anyone on the slopes with a bike helmet on. I'm pretty sure it's not going to offer the kind of protection she needs.
