christmas loot

[Benton]

so.... What did everybody get?
the kids got tickets to sea world and universal, so were heading there now.

[jfkbengals]

Finally got my PS4. The COD Black OPs bundle.

Why that bundle? Because she saw it was orange and black and new damn well that Bengals colors are always the best choice!

[*wildcats forever*]

I got a wonderful family dinner, with many stories, laughs, and remembrances of a loved one we lost this year. And I woke up to another chance of making today an even better one. It's all I could ever want.

[Shake n Blake]

I got a Garmin Vivo (similar to a fit bit) from the Wife. I also got 5 days off from work to go visit my family in good ol' Kentucky. I'll be filling up on Skyline while I'm in town. I'll probably also check for Bengals gear at the stores.

Btw, merry Christmas guys.

I did pretty well, for an old guy. Scored some nice Bengal swag, and the ratchet wrenches that I had been wanting. Overall, was a great Christmas for the entire family. All the kids were well taken care of, bought the wife 6 new outfits for the office, had enough left over to get something modest for all of the extended family members.

Not to mention, Tina and I's "extra" present to each other.. We're coming up to watch the Bengals/Ravens next weekend, with my sister and brother in law! Hope to meet some of y'all, while I'm in town.

sounds like a lit of what matters. We opted on a vacation over presents this year to just have more family time.

hopefully the Bengals give you a late Christmas present and we get another win.

Let's see, I got a
Cordless Electric Impact Driver
Sockets
Mats for my tool box
3 different versions of "A Christmas Carol" which is my favorite Christmas story outside of Luke 2.

Hopefully, as it will be the 1st game that I have attended, since moving to Carolina in '03.  I'll be the bigger than average guy, in the Geno Atkins jersey.  If that doesn't narrow it down ( ), I'll wear one of those name tags that says "Hello, my name is SunsetBengal".

A nice, new, fluffy big recliner.

Many gift cards for house hold items as we just moved from a 1 bedroom apartment to a 3 bedroom house. And a nice Christmas brunch with most of the family and Skype'd the family still in Alaska.

Great idea, board members should always have a name tag to stand out from the crowd!

I got one gift from my wife which was a flag case with my deceased fathers name and branch of service inscribed into the glass. Very awesome gift.


Oh, and a huge freaken Christmas dent in our finances. I honestly think my wife spent about $3,000 on gifts for our kids. She avoids the topic so its got to be close.

Harley, is there a viral photo of your tree hidden underneath gifts making the rounds?

My wife has a good idea.  We're going to cover the name placket with white athletic tape, and write SunsetBengal there.

[Bengal Dude]

Finally got my Anthony Munoz jersey I've been wanting for a while.

Funny but close to accurate. She placed the gifts under the tree and kept adding horizontally instead of vertically. Gifts running down the walls, behind furnitue, etc.

[XenoMorph]

Xbox One + Extra Controller + Charge Stand for controllers
Fallout 4, Witcher 3, Shadow of Morder GOTY, Dead Rising 3, Gears Ultimate, Halo TMCC

A Much needed new coat
And a life jacket for the puppy.

Wife got about 800.

[basballguy]

I got GoT Risk, socks, a couple tshirts, a bottle of grey goose VX, and a tornado (delivered the day after).

[*bfine32*]

I got the gift of giving.

Sounds sappy right? Let me explain,

My wife has recently taken up wood working and wanted a router for Christmas; I went the extra mile and got her the router table too. Also since she is worth it I got her the good (Bosch) stuff. She recently got a Band Saw for our anniversary.

Now she is unhappy with my current mitre saw and wants to upgrade. She also wants a drill press. Valentines Day is right around the corner, maybe I'll spoil her with both.

If she is really good I might be the greatest giving husband ever and build her a workshop in the backyard this Spring; but she'll really owe me.
